TSA, ICE in Airports, and Trump's Muller comments S5E36 03.27.2026

Do you have a question or comment? Want to suggest a topic for our panel or be a guest on the Nova Society? Send us a message!Today our question is from Troy from Pine Valley, California, who writes, ICE in airports? As if they weren’t bad enough out in the open! This just sounds like a disaster looking for a place to happen. I never thought I’d be defending the TSA, as they can be some real asshats, but here we are. So, I know DHS is still operating on limited funding as Republicans and Democrats argue over funding, and ICE in particular. So, I guess ICE is partially funded, and TSA isn’t funded at all? Why hasn’t someone suggested moving some of that money to TSA? I think the real argument about DHS funding has gotten lost in all the distractions. What are the Democrats actually asking for?  Are the Republicans really that opposed to their requests, or is this a Trump thing? Finally, if you have time, I’d like to hear your thoughts on Trump's tweet following Robert Mueller's death. I know if anyone had tweeted that after the death of Charlie Kirk, the right would have lost their minds. Support the showThe Nova Society Podcast In season 5, we will transition to 3 episodes per week and expand episode lengths for more in-depth conversations.Stay tuned for more information about our proposed weekly second channel, The Nova Society-Side Projects, where we have conversations with guests about topics important to them and to you, our listeners.
