Airports in Seattle, Phoenix, and Westchester, New York, are refusing to play Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s propaganda video for air travelers at TSA checkpoints. Imagine trying to get away for a few days with your family, and you’re forced to watch an unqualified woman from the Trump administration blaring out how the Trump/Epstein government shutdown is the Democrats’ fault. We have to watch these people lie and gaslight us daily, but now they’re creeping into TSA checkpoints, too.
The airports cite the “political nature of its content” in their refusal to play the North Korean-style propaganda video.
The Washington Post reports:
“We continue to urge bipartisan efforts to end the government shutdown and are working to find ways to support federal employees working without pay at SEA during the shutdown,” a Port of Seattle spokesperson said in an email Monday. Nor will airports in Portland, Oregon, and Buffalo, according to local news reports.
The Port of Portland, which operates Portland International Airport, told The Oregonian/OregonLive that the video could violate state and federal laws that prohibit the use of public assets and employees to disseminate partisan messages.
