If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

They'll just instead fly private with whoever is a major donor or with one of Epstein's buddies.

Congresspeople will not be inconvenienced.

Bet on it.

Good. At least some of them will have to suffer the way everyone else does. It's a start.

that's right - gotta  hit home, too many of them think they're special and that we (the taxpayers) work for them, instead of the other way around.

I flew all over the world for years pre-TSA and never had a problem other than some air turbulence once in a while.

And not going thru TSA made it a lot more fun to travel internationally then, too.
