Just When You Thought Things Couldn’t Get More Bizarre…

On Wednesday, Zero Hedge reported the following:

Illegal immigrants worried about having proper identification to fly can now use an arrest warrant as an alternate form of ID when presenting to airport security, according to a TSA letter obtained by the Daily Caller.

Responding to Republican Texas Rep. Lance Gooden’s Dec. 15 inquiry about illegal migrants flying across the country, TSA Administrator David Pekoske explained that certain Department of Homeland Security (DHS) documents may be considered acceptable forms of alternate identification for non-citizens, including a “Warrant for Arrest of Alien” and a “Warrant of Removal/Deportation.” -Daily Caller

…The TSA’s Pekoske wrote: “TSA is committed to ensuring that all travelers, regardless of immigration status, are pre-screened before they arrive to the airport, have their pre-screening status and identification verified at security checkpoints, and receive appropriate screening based on risk before entering the sterile area of the airport.”

I truly believe that the TSA has lost its mind. Over the years, the organization has often separated a female passenger from her skin cream because of terrorism concerns, yet they are accepting arrest warrants as acceptable forms of identification for people who are in the country illegally. This makes absolutely no sense.
