All this for an unconstitutional agency that isn’t even good at its job.”
Duffy-Alfonso recommended “things would have gone more smoothly if I’d handed over my biometric data to a random private company (CLEAR),” as a result of she may then “enjoy the special privilege of waiting in a shorter line to be treated like a terrorist in my own country.”

In a separate post, she said that if her father “did have TSA, he’d radically limit it and lobby Congress to abolish it.”
Eventually, Duffy-Alfonso tried to do some injury management by praising President Donald Trump and Noem for all they’ve performed to “keep out terrorists and illegals,” however recommended “there needs to be more common sense around how we treat Americans exercising their right to travel.”
She added that she hopes TSA “works on improving their treatment of expectant mothers who don’t want to go through body scanners to protect their unborn children. We can do both.”
The Department of Transportation and Department of Homeland Security didn’t instantly reply to HuffPost’s request for remark about Duffy-Alfonso’s posts.
Duffy-Alfonso’s father has additionally supplied up some controversial solutions for higher journey, lately suggesting that individuals ought to gown up earlier than flying on planesthat train areas needs to be put in in airports so individuals can work out earlier than flights (presumedly in fits?) and that gas-guzzling wood-paneled station wagons are ripe for a comeback.
