New TSA policies allow transgender passengers to request either a male or female agent for pat-downs, leading to pushback from some agents. Additionally, Ford has released a "Pride" themed F-150 with rainbow colors, which the hosts view as corporate virtue signaling that may alienate traditional customers. These examples are cited as evidence of "mama bears" and the public beginning to resist institutional gender ideology.
Despite the official termination of the national COVID emergency by President Biden, the TSA issued an emergency amendment extending vaccination requirements for non-citizens entering the U.S. until May 11th. The mandate requires airlines to verify proof of vaccination before passengers board flights to the United States. Critics point out that this administrative rule persists even as other pandemic-era restrictions have been lifted.
Public outrage over a viral image of a six-year-old girl being patted down at a New Orleans airport prompts the TSA to adjust its screening policy for children. The agency announces that workers will now be instructed to make repeated attempts to screen young children using non-invasive methods before resorting to physical pat-downs.
