The travel industry is on edge after Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin reiterated his threat to withdraw U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers from airports in so-called “sanctuary cities” in a move that could jeopardize international flights.
The U.S. Travel Association said that Mullin confirmed he is considering withdrawing CPB officers in a meeting where the trade group was pressing its concerns about other proposals the Trump administration is considering that could hamper travel. U.S. Travel and the major airlines quickly condemned the idea, and even Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said it doesn’t make sense to him.
For an admin that bends to the will of airline lobbyists to end one of the longest shutdowns in history, they sure do love fucking over the airline industry.
He’s supposed to be a sock puppet for a billionaire class to be able to get what they want but he keeps doing things that damage them as well.
Who’s he managed to piss off so far, FIFA, The airline industry, the hotel industry, every ancillary business related to the world cup, the tourist industry, Disney, and finally basically any other business that operates in the United States that needs to import products from outside of the United States.
How is he still president? If I pissed off that many powerful people some of them would have had me killed.
