Exclusive details: TSA officer Danielle Mittereder ‘just wants to do her job,’ her attorney told The Independent. ‘And she’s not allowed to do it, for the sole reason that she is transgender.’

    … damn. I support trans rights but want to abolish the TSA. This one’s a pickle.

          she deserves her rights, sure, but I’m not going to cry over a class traitor getting treated poorly. turning against your own kind removes any sympathy

          Is it cognitive dissonance to acknowledge that trans people are capable of being shitty humans?

    Man, you ever feel like people hate you? Try being a trans TSA agent. Woof.

    Wow, the comment section is wild here, all y’all claiming to support Trans people, while excusing this. Targeted for being Trans is never okay, and that’s what’s going on here. Regardless of it being TSA or serving you a coffee.

    I am always in favor of suing Kristi Noem. She murdered her dog and boasted about it for christs sake…

    Peak America moment. No matter who you are, you should have the right to get paid to violate the civil liberties of your neighbors.
