Abolish ICE? NO, Abolish TSA

Melissa and Scott discuss the impact Americans are experiencing from the shutdown, criticizing both Republicans and Democrats for their response. They explain the absurdity of the TSA, deeming it a theatrical system that serves no purpose in protecting Americans from terrorist incidents. Melissa and Scott also propose suitable replacements to TSA, such as implementing private security companies and utilizing AI. Tune in to hear their discussion!
