The man who created </p><p>the crisis is now riding to the rescue. And Congress </p><p>gets to go on a two week vacation. You cannot make </p><p>this up.</p><p>🔥 HOW WE GOT HERE:</p><p>✅ Trump's own partial government shutdown has left </p><p> TSA workers without full pay for 41 consecutive days</p><p>✅ Agents have faced eviction notices, donated plasma, </p><p> and quit at a rate of nearly 500 officers — while </p><p> airports experienced a more than 500% increase in </p><p> assaults against TSA workers during the shutdown </p><p>✅ Spring break travel surge created two-hour security </p><p> lines at Atlanta, Houston and other major airports</p><p>✅ Trump deployed untrained ICE agents to airports </p><p> to manage the crisis HE created</p><p>✅ Trump posted on Truth Social: "Because the Democrats </p><p> have recklessly created a true National Crisis, I am </p><p> using my authorities under the Law to protect our </p><p> Great Country" </p><p>✅ He will now sign an executive order directing </p><p> Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin </p><p> to immediately pay TSA agents</p><p>⚖️ IS THIS EVEN LEGAL?</p><p>✅ The administration plans to use funding from Trump's </p><p> own One Big Beautiful Bill Act to pay TSA officers — </p><p> and constitutional lawyers say the legal basis </p><p> for this move is deeply unclear </p><p>✅ Only Congress has the constitutional power </p><p> to appropriate federal funds — not the president</p><p>✅ The executive order only covers TSA agents — NOT </p><p> FEMA, Secret Service, or any other DHS employees </p><p> still going without pay </p><p>✅ Legal experts say this sets a dangerous precedent </p><p> for executive overreach of congressional </p><p> spending authority</p><p>😤 THE BREATHTAKING AUDACITY:</p><p>✅ Trump created the shutdown</p><p>✅ The shutdown starved TSA of funding</p><p>✅ TSA lines became catastrophically long</p><p>✅ Trump deployed ICE to airports as a bandaid</p><p>✅ Trump now bypasses the Congress HE blamed </p><p> to unilaterally fix the crisis HE created</p><p>✅ Both chambers of Congress now conveniently have </p><p> cover to leave for their two-week spring break </p><p> without reaching any actual bipartisan deal </p><p>✅ Trump gets to play hero</p><p>✅ TSA agents are still owed 41 days of back pay</p><p>✅ Every other DHS employee is still going without</p><p>📌 The man who lit the house on fire just showed up </p><p> with a garden hose.
