Sen. John Cornyn’s attempt to feed TSA workers burgers hijacked by lefty Dem

Sen. John Cornyn’s (R-Texas) visit to Austin’s airport Monday to deliver burgers to TSA workers was crashed by progressive Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas) and quickly devolved into a heated confrontation.

Casar, who chairs the Congressional Progressive Caucus, faulted Republicans for the ongoing funding lapse at the Transportation Security Administration, despite voting against funding for the entire Department of Homeland Security.

“Why don’t you tell your Democrats to vote to pay these poor people?” Cornyn scolded Casar.

Casar then replied: “Let’s do it … There’s a bipartisan bill that funds just the TSA.”

Cornyn called that unacceptable and reminded Casar of the recent terrorist attacks in the US, stressing that “these people are keeping us safe.”
