At airports around the country, near TSA check points, a video is being played featuring Homeland Security Director Kristi Noem asking travelers to be patient because many of the employees are currently working without pay.
Oh, one more thing: In the video Noem also reminds travelers that the federal government is shut down because of Chuck Schumer and the Democrats.
It's caused airport officials to post signs like this one in Detroit, via @DaveBondyTV:

"The Wayne County Airport Authority does not engage in partisan politics."
Sorry but I chuckled at that because Detroit Metro has two terminals and they're both named after Democrats. Also there's a road leading to the airport named after John Dingell. Heaven forbid things get political in and around that airport!

Some airports are refusing to run the video which is basically telling the truth about why the federal government is at least partially shut down.
Photo evidence confirms that Charleston International Airport elected to run the controversial video by Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, which was deemed "too political" for several airports throughout South Carolina and the country.

Dems are triggered... again:
Democratic senators are alleging that the Department of Homeland Security potentially violated the Hatch Act by asking airports across the country to play a video featuring DHS Sec. Kristi Noem blaming Democrats for the impacts of the government shutdown. https://t.co/RxEz1V5vOg

There's really nothing in that video that isn't true, but I realize the truth is the enemy of the Democrats (and apparently a lot of airport officials around the country).
