Congress doesn't - however the Mpls-Stp airport police force does and its not funded by congress. So poor attempt at a cheap shot there...

It's about the air of unreality at TSA. Does anyone believe that TSA will actually check the names of ALL those passgengers to find the supposed terrorist before the plane lands?

It pays to have friends at the White House, I guess. Another issue is not the inconvenience to passengers for wasted time. It’s about the air of unreality at TSA.
