TSA Investigating Woman Who Boarded American Airlines Flight From Nashville to Los Angeles Without Ticket

Gym Jordan and Mr Haney Comer in Congress have oversight or in other words, no one is until they hear from their Russian handlers

Homeland Security is an oxymoron! They strip search American taxpayers and illegals fly without a damn thing, including ID, for free! If you would open your eyes, you might actually see it happening around you?

Getting past security is 10x worse security fail. She could have snuck thru with weapons, bombs etc and then handed them off to a ticketed passenger who could have gotten on the plane.

The fact remains that it was under Biden's watch that the influx exploded. And they arr here and they are real. And real terrorists have been found among them. You may not think the fact that they being allowed to travel on commercial flights without any ID but it is just as relevant as this woman getting onboard an aircraft unvetted.

You can't seriously be that naive can you?

"... and do low-paid jobs that Americans don’t want to do ..."

A talking point rather than a fact, and an Econ 101 fail.

"…the lack of reasonable discourse and nuance when discussing many topics…"

You can't be reasonable when you don't UNDERSTAND the subject, particularly complex subjects. The internet has put information at everyone's fingertips, for almost every subject, but knowing a set of facts about a subject doesn't bestow an understanding of it subject; that requires a proper education in the subject as well as in the variety of ancillary subjects that underpin it and give it its complexity. Lacking that education, people resort to using common sense to do analyses, critical evaluations and debate, which are very likely to be comprised of what I call "plausible nonsense." Common sense is fairly universal and easy to understand, and what is easy to understand is easy to perceive as plausible and not easily recognized as invalid or nonsensical, in fact it is likely to be accepted as the truth. Thus the plausibility masks the nonsense, giving validation to the adage: Little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

Alternatively, the lay public (Congress included, apparently) may depend on the news media for the analyses, evaluations, etc., not recognizing that news reporters may be just as incompetent in that field, which makes them unable to properly vet their sources and the information they provide, and tempts them to resort to common sense too, not just to understand the subject, but also to simplify it for comprehension by the lay public. So what is published as "news" is also plausible nonsense and the public is misinformed anyway.

Your alarm that a Boeing aircraft you fly "is going to have some not-yet-remediated safety defect" seems to suffer from the same lack of reasonable discourse and nuance that you lamented—but it is understandable. If you had the requisite education, you would be able to do your own analyses of the data and validly conclude that almost all of the popular notions published in the media that blamed Boeing for the MAX crashes were false and that there was nothing wrong with the MAX's design. It would also enable you to see how prejudiced minds are so easily led astray.
