The congressman had two (2) dogs in a single kennel. Watch the video.

That is against every airline in the USA rules on traveling with pets, he conveniently left that out of his tirade.

Here is the latest (and very recent) reason (and perhaps would make a great article about United):

Ted, how about you get shot first like the rest if us and then we’ll give you thoughts and prayers while we do nothing about it.

As long as the TSA is groping the sex organs of any flyers hit by haraSSSSment designation, every US Senator and US House Member should be subject to the worst of the TSA screening and in public at that. Be one with the worst off constituents at the airports nearest them.

I wish him a relentless, lengthy, and public SSSS on every flight.

If he has an upgrade, I hope that he is late to the gate and the upgrade is given to a member of the military, first responder, teacher, nurse, or anyone else who is making a real difference.

Enjoy 37B, Senator. Sorry, there is no more snack mix.

On the other hand, he might be useful if seated in the exit row on a MAX. He’s large enough to plug the door.
