Both Democrats And Republicans Have Been Transporting Us
(To hell in a handbasket, that is.)

But, metaphors aside, what is the TSA doing at the Republican and Democratic National Conventions?

They're supposed to be the Transportation "Security" Administration.

(Italics added for accuracy.)

Bob Livingston posts at Personal Liberty:

"This illustrates how the TSA's presence at public events which have nothing to do with transportation is becoming normalized as the federal agency's bloated budget greases the skids for thousands upon thousands of unannounced checkpoints across the country," wrote Paul Joseph Watson.

The TSA was also present at a Paul Ryan event in Florida.

In case you're wondering, the party of civil liberties in this country is -- neither the Democrats nor the Republicans.
