Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s recent comments about making airport security faster sound good in theory, but in reality, her ideas seem more like an overly optimistic fantasy. After recently ending the decades-old rule requiring passengers to remove their shoes at security, Noem suggested more changes could be coming, including possibly getting rid of the 3.4-ounce limit for liquids in carry-on bags.
According to Fox, she even described a future where travelers could “walk in the door with your carry-on suitcase, walk through a scanner, and go right to your plane” in just “one minute.” Can anyone imagine a world where TSA stays protective of the airports, but you also get to your flight in a minute?
