WATCH: Anti-ICE Minneapolis Mayor Tells Trump to “Just Hire More TSA Agents,” Completely Clueless That He Can’t During Democrat-Blocked Shutdown
Leftist lunatic Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey appeared on MSNBC’s The Weekend with co-host Jonathan Capehart on Sunday and suggested President Donald Trump could simply “hire out more TSA agents” to fix the growing airport chaos caused by the ongoing partial government shutdown.
Frey is apparently unaware that the president cannot hire additional agents while funding remains blocked.
“If the goal here was safety at airports, he could hire out more TSA agents who do an incredible job at keeping our airports safe,” Frey claimed.
Capehart did not bother to correct him or inform the audience that his suggestion is not possible or allowed.
The Democrat mayor went on to accuse the Trump administration of trying to “terrorize people” with the president’s plan to temporarily deploy ICE agents to airports.
“If the goal was keeping our streets safe and our cities [safe], he would work with cities around hiring additional police officers and creating the kind of safety infrastructure that we need to keep people safe,” Frey said. “But of course, we all know that’s not the goal. The goal is to terrorize people. And for someone that states that they care so much about bringing the economy back — causing a ton of fear in airports, preventing the kind of safe air travel that we need for commerce, is not a good mechanism to do it.”

Senate Democrats have blocked House-passed DHS funding legislation five times in recent months, including a key vote on Friday, causing the shutdown.
Without appropriations, the administration cannot hire new TSA officers or expand staffing.
The funding impasse has triggered widespread staffing shortages. Thousands of TSA employees are calling out sick daily, and 366 officers have already quit.
Travelers are facing hours-long security lines at major airports nationwide during peak spring break travel.
To deal with the Democrats’ stubborn blocking, President Trump announced that ICE agents will be deployed to airports starting Monday to help with security and detain illegal aliens while they’re at it.
