As Transportation Security Administration lines extend to hours at major U.S. airports across the country amid a wave of walkouts and resignations from the Department of Homeland Security funding shutdown, one familiar figure was seen among the crowds enduring the chaos — President Donald Trump's former attorney general.

In a photograph uploaded to social media by CBS News Homeland Security correspondent Nicole Sganga, Bill Barr, who ran the Justice Department during the latter half of Trump's first term, could be seen, luggage in tow, waiting in the security line at Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport, where wait times have reached three hours as of Wednesday morning.

The image triggered immediate mockery and schadenfreude from commenters, as Barr was a controversial figure to both sides while in office — enraging anti-Trump liberals by selectively burying Justice Department reports that made Trump look bad, while enraging Trump supporters by refusing to go along with plots to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

1. Trump's minions will all be flying military soon

Or Elon will pick up the tab for them flying private

Say, wouldn’t it be great if TSA reduced or eliminated pre boarding checks for the terminals private aircraft use?
