This is all Rand needs to kill the Real ID Act. Have Jimmy Dore write the speech for the Senate floor. Trump is so stupid and hilarious it's disgusting. He thinks we don't know he is working for Klaus Schwab.

So let me get this straight. A terrorist gang is going to use someone with 10 years in Gitmo on his record, with Real ID, to try to board and blow up a plane. Rather than someone with a squeaky clean record like all the 9/11 hijackers had. Add to that the TSA is now allowing people with squeaky clean records and Real ID to skip steps in the screening process, and invites another Richard Reid "shoe bomber" to take another crack at it. Shoe bombers who manage to get a Real ID don't have to take off their shoes and put them through the X-Ray anymore.
Real ID also allow potential terrorists to hide a laptop bomb by letting the passenger leave it in the bag where a jumble of metal items could obscure suspicious wiring and components in the laptop.
The Real ID Act was passed in 2005, but has lain fallow as a result of state and popular resistance. Since taking office for his second term, Trump has single-handedly resurrected it and put it into overdrive.
Finally, "trusted travelers" with squeaky clean records, which all future terrorists will be, can keep their explosive fluids in a bag without ever getting them inspected. Kerosene has a very distinctive look.
In other words Real ID has made us less safe, not more, by its idiotic presumption that terrorists would use someone that didn't have a squeaky clean record.
Add to that, the TSA is now making a category of "high-risk" travelers versus "low-risk." Why would terrorists employ someone who looks "high-risk?" None of the 9/11 hijackers had criminal, nevermind terrorist records.
Full stop. Obviously no one buys this nonsense, and this is Exhibit A that Real ID has nothing to do with safety, and everything to do with inconveniencing people who refuse to have their faces scanned like Chinese proletariat, and stigmatizing them as sheep who submit march to the front the line and don't get groped.
If this makes you mad, read about Sen. Rand Paul's bill to repeal the Real ID Act **of 2005, (**S.2769) and raise your voice by going to Repeal Real ID.
