I recently went to two different airports and didn't see this at either. I think local airports are just ignoring this shit.

Those 7 airports are the only ones I'd consider going to. Why bother with the rest.
What the actual fuck man. We are turning into north Korea. Love the state obey the state praise supreme leader
We are turning into north Korea.
Conservatives have been pushing to turn America into NK/Russia for a long time now. Looks like they're finally getting their wish, courtesy of stupid American voters/non-voters.

Well as long as its at least 7.
My only solace is that the boomers waited till they were so fucking old to try to stop the world from changing through fascism.
Hitler shot himself at 56 and had spent a lot of his 30-40s trying to gain power. A lot of the current generation of fascists are a light jog away or botched botox from their death. But fuck this.
This is the part that burns me the most. All this, for a handful of years to sit atop the ashes.

For context, there are just over 500 commercial airports in the US.
Nearly three dozen …. Including the 10 busiest …. Affecting 1/3 of us air travelers ……
Did this story change after being posted or is the headline way downplaying this?
tbh I could also easily see a ton more not playing it but opting not to publicize the fact that they aren't playing it (ignored media request for comment).
That and not all airports even have TVs setup by the TSA checkpoint, or they're hardly used.
This was posted 2 days ago. Of course things have changed.
this should really fall on the courts to enforce the hatch act & give laws governing officials more teeth.. this is insane 1984 level shit
You mean the courts controlled by Reps?
Courts shouldn't be political. The status is not quo.
It shouldn't, but these fuckers have shown they got people everywhere. Wouldn't be surprised that when the time comes they'll show their true colors.
the Hatch Act is only as effective as the White House decides it will be
Lovely
Same as the Sherman and Clayton anti-trust acts, which is a big reason why we're here now. So, so much of corporate America is patently illegal, and the feds have done fuck-all about it for decades.
As well they should.
The Confederates are breaking the law, again.
Since when do airports show government propaganda?
When the people that operate them are all in. This is what Fascism is, when people want to give them their power.
Since Fox "News" has been running nonstop on monitors throughout airports for decades.
oof
Wasn't it a special version of CNN that avoided talking about plane crashes? Pretty sure that was in nearly every airport for a for decades.

SInce someone realized that it could be done
How many laws do they need to break in order for something to actually be done? They are clearly mentally ill and none of them are based in reality, so we need to get them out of office.
None of this is ok and none of this is normal.
They are not mentally ill, they would gladly twist a toddler's neck for a couple bucks. And that's been rewarded in America for centuries.

telling travelers “Democrats in Congress refuse to fund the federal government” and claiming that is why “most of our TSA employees are working without pay.”
Honestly the TSA shouldn’t exist, it’s a graft and corruption scheme created by the Bush Jr administration so guys like Michael Chertoff could steal taxpayer money.
They can’t even perform their stated functions, there have been numerous instances of them failing to detect firearms and bomb parts during tests, they fail the majority by a wide margin.
It’s a “make-work” program. Those people should be building hospitals in rural communities, fixing roads and bridges. At least that would have a return on investment.
Same with ICE, and the entire DHS, frankly.
The day I saw you could pay to get expressed through the TSA lines was the day it became 100% apparent it was nothing more than a grifting scheme.
“This is probably not a Hatch Act violation, because it's not tied to an election,” Cynthia Brown, senior ethics counsel at the non-partisan ethics watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), told Forbes.
Not tied to an election? What? What rock are you living under?
There really isn't any opposition to the GOP anymore. Just variations of complicity.
... And all the other airports in the country broadcast it?
It looks like they have capitulated, for now. It wouldn’t hurt to contact your local airport to object, and to organize peaceful demonstrations.
The airports that refuse to bend the knee have also released public statements condemning the video. Let’s show them our support! They are:
Portland International
Seattle-Tacoma International
Buffalo Niagara International
Niagara Falls International
Westchester County
Spokane international is on the list as well which is a little surprising as that is an area that favors Republicans in elections.
Glad to hear Denver isn't doing it. It's bad enough that these evil pieces of shit are pushing government propaganda, but there is no reason that major airports in blue states should go along with it.

The fucking Maggats are like a clown version of the NAZIs, trying to ape their practices whilst being total incompetent klutzes at doing it.
It would be hilarious if america wasn't fucking stupid enough to fall for it. Every. Damn. Time.
Well, on the upside America might actually survive the Trump regime purelly because of how, even with a fucking master plan seemingly made by smarter people, they're horribly inept at making it work, mainly because everybody in that Administration has been chosen based on loyalty or looks and not at all on demonstrated execution abilities.
Imagine if instead of a gaggle of morons, that Administration was instead made up of competent people with domain-applicable experience.
Good god, the morons in office right now are so fucking stupid. They have to make videos to put out and blame the left for all the dumb shit they do. They did it! They did it! Despite having the minority in all branches of the gov, it's totally them.
Fuck off fascists
The video isn't for us.
It's for their followers.
It should be all of them. Get that fascist propaganda out of here.
What is the Republicans end game here? Democrats aren't going to vote for his bill without getting anything in return. Why would anyone think otherwise.
Have you ever known a child who could manipulate his parents by being stubborn and annoying. The parents are incapable of setting boundaries and caving to the child’s demands is easier than having difficult discussions.
Republicans are the children and Democrats are the patents. The parents are now trying to set a boundary. Expect an epic tantrum from the children.

I'd love to see a real instance of "The Storm" if Democrats were to get back in the WH....issue warrants for every single one of those responsible for shit like this.
Arrest every single one of those in his cabinet. Arrest everyone in his family.
I know the pearl-clutching "centrists" will cry about "tone" and "civility" and how this is only going to make Republicans worse. Fuck that. Make Republicans motherfucking SCARED to try this kind of shit again. As they should be.

Whatever happened to the fucking Hatch Act?
Probably floating in some plastic container in the ocean with the rest of the rule of laws they threw out.
Is this the one where she’s cranking Lewandowski’s ridiculous stub with her grizzled paws?
No? Different video then. I mean she blames Democrats for both.
