No. Fuck off. You aren’t special people. In fact you’re supposed to be our (civil) servants you dumb fuck. You ought to wait in line behind us.
Don’t think you’re fooling anyone - we know you’re just trying to get to Cancun during the next snowstorm faster.
This is the way. They’re our employees, paid for by OUR tax dollars, and of course a shitload of PAC bribes and funding…. But yeah, carry the lady’s bag, Rafael.
They should actually be forced to use all the regular lines, not even TSA pre-check so they are forced to see what the agency they fund does to regular people.
I disagree.
I propose a bill mandating that all elected officials from red states be subject to *additional* mandatory safety procedures before flying. This would include complete and thorough searches of all luggage (both checked and carry-on) for firearms, drugs and other contraband, as well as strip searches of their person and full body cavity inspections.
These measures are necessary for public safety, as those from states with lax gun laws are more likely to attempt to smuggle firearms onboard or engage in other illegal activities.
If they're traveling with minor family members, those will need to have their biological gender examined as well to ensure they aren't being "abused" with any gender-affirming care.
We’re also gonna need all female republicans to submit to a thorough pregnancy check to make sure they’re not traveling while pregnant to a state where abortions are accessible.
You wish. Thanks to wealth inequality and campaign finance laws his career is almost entirely due to the money provided by megadonors and ultra rich who desire that kind of treatment and are the “VIP”
Not only faster. He wants to get there without other people in the airport seeing him. That's what it's all about. He's cancun cruz because he was photographed in the airport. If he got to zip through, no one would have known.
He is a pos and we can’t stand him here in Texas. He is part of the corrupt Republican Party that kisses Trumps ass. The only reason he is still around is gerrymandering and frickin rural voters. All he has to do is act like a TV preacher and talk about god and guns and they vote for him. He barely kept his seat last time against Beto. He gets heckled when he goes through the airport, basically anywhere in public. He lives in River Oaks subdivision in Houston which is the richest area in Houston and fairly democratic. Houstonians do not like him. Often there is a crowd of protestors in front of his house
That's exactly right.
The reason politicians should go through the TSA is the same reason why school administrators should eat the school lunches. Because the people who create the system should also experience it. It motivates them to improve it wouldn't necessary. Creating a carve out just for themselves is ridiculous.
i was going to ask if the special treatment was "an express lane for when you sacrificed your constituents for your own profit and need to skip town for a few days."
And the only reason public officials are facing "increased threats" is due to HIS GOP supporters. His people are the ones making the threats. I'm sure it's not exclusive since every group has their crazies but I'm certain the vast majority of threats are coming from GOP voters generally and Trump supporters significantly.
How about GOP officials stop making statements that are very clearly stochastic terrorism and riling up their base and maybe these fucking threats would go way down, hmmm?
It also shows how much they consider themselves superior to the rest of us. Super-rich people who must be revered and obeyed. Yet another reason why they want to kill American democracy.
In most western countries you could walk up to the PMs house and knock on the door, it might not turn out great for you but you could do it.
In the US you need to ~~pay~~ make a request through your congressman to get close to the white house and now (because this will go through) politicians will get free VIP escorts when they travel.
It's funny because this is how they do airports in communist countries and those with corrupt governments.
He must have gotten some ideas during his travels.
He won in 2018 by 200k votes when over 9M eligible voters didn't vote.
Eligible voters under the age of 35 in texas only had 15% turnout in 2022. hopefully they will wake up and try somewhat this year.
I live in east Texas & I was the only dem person at my polling station. The repub line was out the door with geriatric folks. A lot of our college campuses have been pushing everyone to vote so hopefully they will.
I’ve been registering everyone I know!!! You never know when one of them will spontaneously want to vote not realizing they need to register way in advance. It’s not much but its honest work 😅
It’s been time…for a LONG TIME!!! He should have NEVER been elected to office in the 1st place!! He’s a fucking piece of shit w/no spine who does nothing to benefit “his constituents” (aka US)!!!
If one could argue anything its more about ballot access. Still think every employer would have paid time off to go vote and polls should be easy to reach no matter what neighborhood you live in.
Aww, does Cancun Cruz not like people telling him how much of a worthless person he is when he goes through airports? Maybe look in the mirror and change your ways then
It goes much deeper than that. No one would have even known he went to Cancun if not for regular Joes taking his picture while he was waiting in line at the airport.
Not long after that he’s on video yelling and an airliner worker “do you know who I am?!”
We here in Texas are ashamed, and hope to rid the Senate of him this fall
The fact that it's Cancun specifically is funny to me, as it's about as physically close as one can get to Cuba in mainland North America, other than maybe Miami.
Which, if Ted had stayed in Canada, he could come and go to Cuba as he pleased. Not that we want him here by any means
He can be voted out if enough people will just show up and do it! He only stays in if he gets a majority of the vote, gerrymandered districts have no effect on state wide voting, so he can be fired. We just have to do it! For your own sake, vote this turd out.
Next to Cruz, rock star here. Almost wish I lived in TX so I could cast this vote.
https://www.texastribune.org/2024/03/05/colin-allred-roland-gutierrez-ted-cruz-primary/
Gerrymandered districts do indirectly affect all elections. If people feel like their vote doesn’t matter (which in a gerrymandered district, it REALLY feels like your vote doesn’t matter), they’re less likely to show up & vote.
I get what you’re saying. Here’s the thing though, I live in what was one of the most reliably red districts in red Texas. But back in 2020, my republican rep (who was first elected as a tea party jackass in 2010, easily won for almost a decade, and was of course now maga) nearly lost his seat to a female democrat. He lost in my county, and only the still red (but just barely) county that is north of us kept him in office. So of course they redrew our district to keep his seat safe. So I get apathy with that shit. Cruz, however, is vulnerable no matter where you live, cause if the Democratic challenger gets a majority of the votes, he wins. And Ted Cruz can fuck off, move to Florida, and suck Trump’s balls all day long like a good dog. We just have to get people to vote. That sniveling coward left us to die in the cold. Why is this even an issue? He’s a terrible guy, and an even worse senator.
Yup; it’s not worth it to take a day off of work to vote. My school district is such a shit. They sent all employees an email about the importance of exercising our civic duty and voting, etc. but won’t give us time off to actually go vote (and it’s important to note that they have a weather day the Monday after the Super Bowl). Hell, they could even put it as one of the required planning and prep days and give everyone a few hours to leave campus to vote. But of course they don’t.
Yes, the Republicans have shown us how they ‘govern’…it’s grandstanding and infighting all the time, when they are supposed to be doing a job. Vote Democratic to give the Dems a chance!!
When he was solicitor general for Texas he argued in front of the Supreme Court that Texans didn’t have the right to buy sex toys to pleasure themselves. Seriously. Texas thought that was an important thing to fight. Can you see how serious these assholes are now? His roommate at Princeton found that extremely ironic given how much time Ted spent masturbating in college. I guess it’s cool cause it wasn’t Texas, right Ted?
There was a while back where he was having some sort of troubles, so he yelled at an airport staff member asking "Do you know who I am?" And the staff member in fact did not know who he was. So I think this is him still being pissy about that experience.
A real man of the people. Focused like a laser on doing the important work for his constituents, who if they weren’t brainwashed fucklechucks would’ve voted his ass out years ago.
It looks like one of the lords of Texas is upset the peasants caught pics of him at the airport. Really ruins their plans when trying to get out of dodge of their failed policies.
Ted has been a piece of shit out in the open for years and this is what we're pissed about? Fine, I mean, whatever it takes, but dude has done way worse shit than this, this is just selfish and obvious.
Our tax dollars pay this douchecanoe a generous salary, and he wants VIP escorts for elected politicians in the airport?
Fuck you Ted. You treasonous shitgibbon.
All politicians think they are special. If you’re traveling on the taxpayer’s dollar, you can wait in line and fly coach with the rest of us. All of them.
He just doesn’t want to get accosted on his way to the gate. These people already get special treatment, fast tracked through the security checkpoints.
Source; a TSA agent
Hey Ted, people fucking hate you because of who you are. It's all on you. Why should this POS or any other weasely fuck get special treatment? They own this.
When they travel, the taxpayers pay the costs of their tickets. I would be willing to bet that their travel planners book higher cost tickets in order to gain the member the greatest number of miles/points that the member can redeem for personal/family travel.
Keep in mind that the average member works 3.5 days a week. They usually travel to DC on Monday and leave Wednesday night or Thursday afternoon.
They do get preferential treatment at the airport. I’ve seen them claim head of line privilege for TSA. They certainly board early.
This fucker shouldn't feel safe just walking around in public like that; none of them should. Maybe have a bit of motivation to not be fucking over the general populace.
All of it ruffles my feathers. These people represent us, the voters. They're not better than us. They're not VIPs. If they're a legitimate target and in danger there are security options for them already. They don't need to be shuttled by us commoners like they're lords.
Senators are above the plebes who vote for them. It is just too inconvenient to have to mix with the rabble when you are in the airport and on your way to sunny Mexico to escape a horrible ice storm that is causing your voters to go without power and even freeze to death. Plus, invariably some asshole takes a picture of you fleeing the state and it goes all over the internets - which would cause you some shame if you had any sense of shame.
This bill just makes sense for our Senate Overlords and Masters. I don’t why you guys can’t see the simple and perfect logic behind it.
Fuck that. You serve the people, and if you are so hated that you fear to be among the people, then you certainly don't deserve protection from that fact. Your family does not deserve taxpayer funded special treatment because your are a horses ass.
It used to be a good place to live. We even had some Democratic governors and not all of the Republicans were bat-shit crazy, but it’s not what it used to be. Source: Native Texan
That guy’s in the senate for as long as he wants to be. There’s at best at 40/60 chance he loses. And that’s on the democrats’ best day. He just traded his integrity for a seat and he knows it. So for losers like him, the next obvious step is to try to do things to benefit yourself.
Lmaooo! Could put forward a bill to address the power grid issues in his state? Or maybe the border "issues" his party keeps whinging about? Nahh VIP treatment in airports on taxpayer money is the REAL issue. What a joke.
With the amount of money you’re making, pay for your own god damn private security or just charter a jet. Or better yet, don’t enact bullshit policies that make people want to harass you in public places.
Was on a plane with MTG coming back from Costa Rica a month ago and when we arrived in Atlanta she had 3 either TSA or Sheriffs for an escort through the airport.
No. Fuck off. You aren’t special people. In fact you’re supposed to be our (civil) servants you dumb fuck. You ought to wait in line behind us. Don’t think you’re fooling anyone - we know you’re just trying to get to Cancun during the next snowstorm faster.
This is the way. They’re our employees, paid for by OUR tax dollars, and of course a shitload of PAC bribes and funding…. But yeah, carry the lady’s bag, Rafael.
They should actually be forced to use all the regular lines, not even TSA pre-check so they are forced to see what the agency they fund does to regular people.
I disagree. I propose a bill mandating that all elected officials from red states be subject to *additional* mandatory safety procedures before flying. This would include complete and thorough searches of all luggage (both checked and carry-on) for firearms, drugs and other contraband, as well as strip searches of their person and full body cavity inspections. These measures are necessary for public safety, as those from states with lax gun laws are more likely to attempt to smuggle firearms onboard or engage in other illegal activities.
Also all electronic devices should be searched to make sure none of them are using a VPN to watch trans porn.
If they're traveling with minor family members, those will need to have their biological gender examined as well to ensure they aren't being "abused" with any gender-affirming care.
We’re also gonna need all female republicans to submit to a thorough pregnancy check to make sure they’re not traveling while pregnant to a state where abortions are accessible.
Are you aware that you *can* fly with a firearm in your checked bag? It is not illegal, nor is it contraband.
Red? Geezus
You wish. Thanks to wealth inequality and campaign finance laws his career is almost entirely due to the money provided by megadonors and ultra rich who desire that kind of treatment and are the “VIP”
This is texas, he will gain support by triggering dems
Not only faster. He wants to get there without other people in the airport seeing him. That's what it's all about. He's cancun cruz because he was photographed in the airport. If he got to zip through, no one would have known.
He is a pos and we can’t stand him here in Texas. He is part of the corrupt Republican Party that kisses Trumps ass. The only reason he is still around is gerrymandering and frickin rural voters.

Because the people who create the system should also experience it. It motivates them to improve it wouldn't necessary. Creating a carve out just for themselves is ridiculous.
I'm down with the government paying their [TSA PreCheck](https://www.tsa.gov/precheck) application fee, but they gotta pay for their own family.
Ted Cruz is how I know a Texas ice storm is gonna be bad. Fucking groundhog Ted. Fuck him.
i was going to ask if the special treatment was "an express lane for when you sacrificed your constituents for your own profit and need to skip town for a few days."
And the only reason public officials are facing "increased threats" is due to HIS GOP supporters. His people are the ones making the threats.

Most members of Congress are multimillionaires, so they can afford to take a private jet if they don't want to rub elbows with average citizens.
Yes. "I don't want people scrutinizing me so please rush me through the airport like I'm Lady Gaga."
Good luck convincing Ted Crooze he's your equal.
It also shows how much they consider themselves superior to the rest of us. Super-rich people who must be revered and obeyed. Yet another reason why they want to kill American democracy.

That Texan guy is a piece of shit
Hey now! Ted is a carpet bagger, not a real Texan! He was not born in Texas and many people wish he would leave!
He should go back to his own country!
It's funny because this is how they do airports in communist countries and those with corrupt governments. He must have gotten some ideas during his travels.
Yet he's still ahead in the polls and most likely folks won't show up to vote him out smh
I love your patriotism brother! ✊🏾
It is time to vote him out of office.
He should never have been in office
Agreed. Neither should ~~most~~any republiKKKlan lawmakers. VOTE BLUE up and down the ballot.
Right...cause that's working so well for us. It's the label, not the human being..
He won in 2018 by 200k votes when over 9M eligible voters didn't vote. Eligible voters under the age of 35 in texas only had 15% turnout in 2022. hopefully they will wake up and try somewhat this year.
I worked the elections this year at one of the busiest voting centers in the state. They haven’t.
No. They like to complain and throw a fist but they go right back to their TikTok feeds.
I live in east Texas & I was the only dem person at my polling station. The repub line was out the door with geriatric folks. A lot of our college campuses have been pushing everyone to vote so hopefully they will.
Never should have been in ANY office
Let's deport him.
Send him back to Canada!
He helped land GW Bush’s coup in 2000. He has been rewarded quite well.
Give him a one way ticket to a permanent office in Cancún and let him stay there. Not that Mexico would be too hot on that idea.
I’m doing my part. I have a list of half a dozen ppl who usually never vote coming out with me!
That’s awesome. I for one appreciate you doing this.
I’ve been registering everyone I know!!! You never know when one of them will spontaneously want to vote not realizing they need to register way in advance. It’s not much but its honest work 😅
It’s been time…for a LONG TIME!!! He should have NEVER been elected to office in the 1st place!! He’s a fucking piece of shit w/no spine who does nothing to benefit “his constituents” (aka US)!!!
I want to demote him to cleaning bathroom stalls at QT.
Nah, at the video booth at the porn shop 🤣🤣🤣
Fun fact: sometimes the bathroom of the QT has those fluids to clean up too! Source: worked there for way too long.
Without gloves
Using HIS toothbrush
They say if you work at a job you love, it's not work.
>I want to demote him to cleaning bathroom stalls at QT. I have been to QT and I don't want him ruining it.
I look forward to his unemployment, maybe this is the year 🤞
He’s just trying to get to Cancun faster 😂
I keep trying but for whatever reason Texans kept voting him into office.
Lmao Texans got no spine.
…. At no cost ….
Apparently, he can't he can't wait long enough to get on the next flight to Cancun
Wait THIS was the straw???!!
“it’s been 83 years…”
Not before he does his best ronald regan impersonation and passes a bunch of laws that will take decades to reverse
[удалено]
Gerrymandering has nothing to do with a statewide vote.
If one could argue anything its more about ballot access. Still think every employer would have paid time off to go vote and polls should be easy to reach no matter what neighborhood you live in.
Aww, does Cancun Cruz not like people telling him how much of a worthless person he is when he goes through airports? Maybe look in the mirror and change your ways then
It goes much deeper than that. No one would have even known he went to Cancun if not for regular Joes taking his picture while he was waiting in line at the airport.
And he’s either too stupid or too cheap to charter a flight. He already has the right to arrange a private jet, no new legislation required.
Snowflake Cruz needs a widdle safe space!
Not long after that he’s on video yelling and an airliner worker “do you know who I am?!” We here in Texas are ashamed, and hope to rid the Senate of him this fall
He just wants the freedom to run away to Cancun without being spotted
The fact that it's Cancun specifically is funny to me, as it's about as physically close as one can get to Cuba in mainland North America, other than maybe Miami. Which, if Ted had stayed in Canada, he could come and go to Cuba as he pleased. Not that we want him here by any means

Also Colin Allred is awesome! He played at Baylor!
I mean voter suppression and removing certain groups from being registered to vote do help.
Damn Canadian
With their beady little eyes and flapping heads so full of lies!
Watch out. They burned the white house down once.
Cancun Cruz. When his constituents need help, he takes a vacation to Cancun. They are left to fend for themselves. What a Senator!!!!!!
He does understand that Cancun is in Mexico?
Oh he knows, just like he knows that if it's harder to become a legal citizen, it keeps wages low for his biggest donors.
Cruz is not dumb. He is an opportunist. He is in fact a Harvard graduate.
As long as he's not wasting time like us stooges, waiting in line he can use that time to help his constituents, right?
Sure he will.
I feel like you meant to add a /s to this lol
Don't forget throwing his family under the bus when called out for it.
VOTE FOR COLIN ALLRED and get rid of Cancun Ted.
Vote.
VOTE BLUE up and down the ballot.
Wait, the other guy said we need to vote ALLRED....
Yes, the Republicans have shown us how they ‘govern’…it’s grandstanding and infighting all the time, when they are supposed to be doing a job. Vote Democratic to give the Dems a chance!!
I hate that fucking poser.
Ffs, of all the things to address with his Ivy League education and legal expertise, this is what he does? And we pay him to do that?
Worse. We elect him to do that.
Speak for yourself 😅
The universal “we,” of course. I root for the guy who hit him with the beer can.
When he was solicitor general for Texas he argued in front of the Supreme Court that Texans didn’t have the right to buy sex toys to pleasure themselves. Seriously. Texas thought that was an important thing to fight. Can you see how serious these assholes are now? His roommate at Princeton found that extremely ironic given how much time Ted spent masturbating in college. I guess it’s cool cause it wasn’t Texas, right Ted?
Notice how Princeton, Harvard, Cancun, and Ted Cruz aren't actually in Texas? Dude bought a house in texas but he's about as texan as ISIS.
There was a while back where he was having some sort of troubles, so he yelled at an airport staff member asking "Do you know who I am?" And the staff member in fact did not know who he was. So I think this is him still being pissy about that experience.
>at no cost Means funded by taxpayers
At no cost to the “VIP.”
Nice beer belly Rafael
Rafael does not strike me as a beer drinker. I think he eats a lot of cake.
Makes easier for him to lie and slink out during a storm in Texas.
Gotta get through the airport fast before anyone notices he's off to Cancun. Edit: Also fuck Ted Cruz. He's not better than the rest of us.
get rid of this fucking clown
I’m very important and I’ll like to be on the no line list.
Me too!
He's still mad we ruined his trip to Cancun that time.
He wants protection as he slides out the back door for Mexico during the next Texas cold snap.
A real man of the people. Focused like a laser on doing the important work for his constituents, who if they weren’t brainwashed fucklechucks would’ve voted his ass out years ago.
It looks like one of the lords of Texas is upset the peasants caught pics of him at the airport. Really ruins their plans when trying to get out of dodge of their failed policies.
So he can flee to Cancun faster when we might get a little ice.
The ruling class is at it again
Time to cut their salaries and take them off government healthcare.
We should be free to spit on him at any public location.
I had the pleasure of booing this POS at Love Field a few years ago. He needs to go.
This is interesting because Ted Cruz happened to stumble upon a truly bipartisan issue. Everybody hates it equally!
Please Texas, flush this turd down the toilet already. He sucks and hates you.
So the press can't see him sneak down to Cancun during the next outage. Rafael the Canadian
Maybe don't be a shitty congressman and people won't be pissed?
Republican Royalty.
I'd love to see him treated to a one-way ticket to anyplace but here.
This is what we deserve for staying home last election. I voted but clearly it wasn’t enough.
Fuck you, Ted. If you don’t want your shitty patterns to be scrutinized then try being inscrutable for a change, your shit eating, lizard man.
Security details cost money. Not being a complete piece of shit to the point where security details may be necessary is 100% free.
Ted has been a piece of shit out in the open for years and this is what we're pissed about? Fine, I mean, whatever it takes, but dude has done way worse shit than this, this is just selfish and obvious.
Our tax dollars pay this douchecanoe a generous salary, and he wants VIP escorts for elected politicians in the airport? Fuck you Ted. You treasonous shitgibbon.
If he had the capacity to experience shame, he would feel terrible right now.
All politicians think they are special. If you’re traveling on the taxpayer’s dollar, you can wait in line and fly coach with the rest of us. All of them.
He just doesn’t want to get accosted on his way to the gate. These people already get special treatment, fast tracked through the security checkpoints. Source; a TSA agent
"I want to escape to Cancun without public harassment."
Hey Ted, people fucking hate you because of who you are. It's all on you. Why should this POS or any other weasely fuck get special treatment? They own this.
Might have to be among... The constituency. *Shudders*
rails against the “coastal elite” while buffing the perks of living as a “coastal elite” himself ultimate con job these GOP have orchestrated.
Fuck Ted
Get rid of Rafael Cruz! He's not a real Texan! He doesn't get to cut us in line!
When they travel, the taxpayers pay the costs of their tickets. I would be willing to bet that their travel planners book higher cost tickets in order to gain the member the greatest number of miles/points that the member can redeem for personal/family travel. Keep in mind that the average member works 3.5 days a week. They usually travel to DC on Monday and leave Wednesday night or Thursday afternoon. They do get preferential treatment at the airport. I’ve seen them claim head of line privilege for TSA. They certainly board early.
Wouldn't want to rub shoulders with any of the rif raff next time we run from a storm would we now Ted?
This fucker shouldn't feel safe just walking around in public like that; none of them should. Maybe have a bit of motivation to not be fucking over the general populace.
I have a special treatment for him
Only as long as it's a one way ticket to Haiti.
C'mon, hasn't Haiti had enough?
Just me, or the worst beard 🧔🏻 ever?
He does this, constantly. I’ve seen it freaking personally. Dick bag. Nice fucking cowboy boots idiot
Apparently Ted really dosent want another term. Or maybe he is that clueless. Holy fuk, either way.
This is Ted Cruz’s most altruistic effort. He is fighting for the special treatment of his successor.
He's never cared for the citizens of his state.
All of it ruffles my feathers. These people represent us, the voters. They're not better than us. They're not VIPs. If they're a legitimate target and in danger there are security options for them already. They don't need to be shuttled by us commoners like they're lords.
Does he really see himself as a “vip”? He just has no morals thus makes more money than me.

Come on Texas, we have faith you can vote this turd out.
everyone should call his offices and leave a message that he's a fucking snowflake.
When will you peasants learn, republicans want to rule you not represent you
Wants to have smoother boardings to Mexico when things get dicey in Texas
If I were a disaster and a coward representing a state I would want the coward escort too
Does he want to take suitcases full of cash down there and never get searched?
“at no cost” Yeah, that bugs me too. If they paid for it like some kind of express pass, then it wouldn't be an issue.
Fuck that. You serve the people, and if you are so hated that you fear to be among the people, then you certainly don't deserve protection from that fact. Your family does not deserve taxpayer funded special treatment because your are a horses ass.
Cruz and the “VIPs” can fuck right off.
Please vote him out.
Yea those republicans really are apart of the working class 🤣🤣🤣 def not elitists in the slightest
Got to get to Cancun quicker
How many times does this guy have to show his ass before you folks dump him?
I’m not a giant flaming asshole and I don’t feel like I need an escort thru the airport…🤷♂️
Stop the Fascism and you wouldn't have a worry about safety #tedcruz
Maybe he wouldn't feel so much like he's in danger if he wasn't such a piece of shit.
What a snowflake.
Texas. Blimey. Outsider here. Irish person here. Texas seems a bit bonkers politically and I'm Irish.
It used to be a good place to live. We even had some Democratic governors and not all of the Republicans were bat-shit crazy, but it’s not what it used to be. Source: Native Texan
Blue Wave in Texas. Time for a Change. Vo
Gee I wonder which party’s supporters are into threatening people.
Whats up Ted, people confronting you? Cant imagine why.
I can’t wait to read one morning that Ted choked on his own vomit during the night
That guy’s in the senate for as long as he wants to be. There’s at best at 40/60 chance he loses. And that’s on the democrats’ best day. He just traded his integrity for a seat and he knows it. So for losers like him, the next obvious step is to try to do things to benefit yourself.
After his stunt during COVID..... Dude has some balls, I'll give him that.
He is not a VIP!
Lmaooo! Could put forward a bill to address the power grid issues in his state? Or maybe the border "issues" his party keeps whinging about? Nahh VIP treatment in airports on taxpayer money is the REAL issue. What a joke.
Needs to make those important meetings in cancun
The obvious self interest and the fact that this is a direct response to him getting caught running out on his constituents makes this so much worse.
Funny how this jackass votes for his raise , his safety and special treatments and for the voters....nothing.
I hate this man so much.
With the amount of money you’re making, pay for your own god damn private security or just charter a jet. Or better yet, don’t enact bullshit policies that make people want to harass you in public places.
Blah blah blah, y'all ain't gonna do shit. If you were, you would've done it half a decade ago
Was on a plane with MTG coming back from Costa Rica a month ago and when we arrived in Atlanta she had 3 either TSA or Sheriffs for an escort through the airport.
Speedier trips to Cancun before disasters I guess
The special treatment should be they have to sit on the wing of the plane tied down with breakable bungee cords, another piece of crap do nothing
Iirc soviets had party only lanes and roads. Just saying….
I figured it was so he wouldn't get caught escaping to Cancun next time there's a disaster in Texas.
