More freedom

Do you know how many Canadians are going to get caught up in this Real ID thing? So many. I once had to explain my 🇨🇦 passport to TSA because he couldn't figure out why it had both an issue and expiry date. They're going to expect us to have Real ID.

Air traffic is going down so fast you’re going to think the planes are crashing.

The epic foot dragging by citizens and the States for a law that was passed 20 YEARS AGO is a sight to behold.

We are the ones responsible for letting this happen. People refuse to #unite for sustainable parity, and work towards healthy #SocialReform. It's easier to stay comfortable. It's easier to remain a victim. #HumanReform #CultureReform

It's all good. I don't plan on flying anytime soon. I'll get it when my license expires next year. I'm not spending more money than I need to.

The good news is, in North Carolina, it takes months to get an appointment at the DMV, and you practically have to hire a hacker to get into its appointment book. So if you don’t have a RealID hopefully you don’t want to travel by air anywhere @joshsteinnc.bsky.social

FYI, the vast majority of Real ID’s won’t work for voting if the SAVE Act passes.

Happily not a problem for me as there is zero chance of me visiting the Disunited States of America and lifetime soon.

My husband is flying out today and when he returns Real ID will be in place. He was asked for his passport on check in. I predict lots of people being unprepared.

#Nazi #USA. What next - fisting every passenger?

Stupid dumb ugly

"Papers please" level of fascism is here

2.We needed a birth certificate, marriage license, divorce decree, name change. For 40 years she used an alias, had a driver's license, social security, bank in that name. There is No paper trail for how she was able to use an alias, so she cannot get a real ID.

Ah, you must live in one of the states in denial that has been ignoring the impending deadline. Screwing over their citizens.

Too bad. Still orders of magnitude safer than driving. You could have an airliner crash ever other day and it's still safer than driving.

How do we know if we are compliant? I got mine renewed in Ga. last July.

This story claims REAL-ID will be required, but that's not true. In court, TSA has always said no ID is required to fly, and responses to our FOIA requests show ~2K people fly without ID every day. Here's TSA procedure for flying without ID or with unacceptable ID: papersplease.org/wp/2025/04/2...

Soooo...we have this Real ID requirement, yet this administration wants to get rid of TSA. If TSA is gone, who will enforce the Real ID requirement? I wouldn't count on the airlines to do it because they are trying to make the most doing the very least. See Southwest airlines and their nonsense

Two questions: What do they want to confirm? What are the concerns of those who do not want to participate in the confirmation?

Fascism in action

Passport. Use it.

Nah

Not this time.

States brought this on themselves. In Colorado they switched us all over way back in 2013. Seamless process, easily managed and now every drivers license in the State is a real ID.

Not correctly written Real ID rules are state rules Federal IDs such as global entry card is not real ID, but as federal is it is still valid for travel. Same applies to passport etc

I'm not doing that shit.

So much freedom!

Get a passport. These real IDs are a scam.

Your pass port i thought can replace real id (for us citizens only? )

So, expect much longer wait times getting through security at airports for months to come.

Except if your skin is any tone other than white?

A handy chart for knowing whether or not your current ID qualifies.

Or you could just carry your passport with you (and if you don't have one, now would be a great time to get one). Then you don't need a Real ID.

moral of the story - DON'T GO TO DISUNITED STATES

Only five states offer Real ID…

Nobody knows

Trump really hates immigrants...

how many American's will have restrictions on their freedom of movement, felon 47 is havin an economic impact on every aspect of American's activiities of daily life

as with most things the professional bankruptee felon does it's never thought through, from my memory takin internal domestic flights in the US was like gettin on a bus in the UK, Airports & Airlines must know the stats they are goin 2 get 'bigly' hit in the pocket.

papers, please

Can't wait to hear the complaints from the MAGA crowd. Little do they know this law was passed during George Bush's administration. Personally, I think having an ID with 3 pictures of me (1 is a hologram) is a little overkill. None give a clear picture. How stupid?

Federal Courthouses as well.

Not flying anymore, I guess.

Wait, what!?! I live in Colorado and I never heard them talking about this.

Who is flying anymore anyway lol

Agreed, it shouldn’t be so hard. NYC requires you to come into the DMV with an appointment or they won’t see you. The post office was easy peasy and I’ve never had a passport before.

Thank you.

Exactly, I live in Colorado and I never heard them talk about this

What state?

What, for the love of God, will full enforcement be?

And if you’re caught without your papers. . . Well.

If not having a Real-ID compliant license will not permit you to board a plane, what would be added when "full enforcement" begins? Summary execution? Deportation to any friendly third-world country?

We've only been warned this is coming for the last 2-3 years, GFR if you haven't changed

I married two different men with the same last name. I got lucky/unlucky as I am twice divorced. Kept the double last name to save the trouble as my passport carries the divorced last name. It’s a law against women, no doubt.

I couldn't wait to change my name. I had already left my family behind. But yeah, hindsight is 20/20.

I hadn't realized the DMV was handing out Fake-IDs this whole time 🤔

This I think is wild. Just pick up any kid and fly where you want? nuts really.

Another Tax from Congress. Thanks Speaker Johnson. Thanks Leader Thune. Solutions to non-existent problems.

But a photocopy of your Ballot paper showing you voted Republican will do.

This was always a solution in search of a problem. What is this going to prevent? Why are we doing this?

They wanted my electronic devices and were super bummed I didn’t have an ipad or laptop but only a phone. The evil empire is in power. They swabbed my phone. SEA TAC TSA has always been a jobs program for MAGA types anyway. It’s always something at SEA TAC.

It's been coming for years and now there's a panic. Come on people try to be at least minimally self reliant.

Real ID is a plot to keep us from travelling. Many funerals will go unattended due to this stupid idea. Domestic travel should be open and free of this bullshit.

TRUMP'S GOAL IS CRUELTY TRUMP'S TOOL - STEPHEN MILLER NOBODY IN THE 21ST CENTURY IS MORE A MIRROR IMAGE OF THE 20TH CENTURY MONSTER, JOSEPH GOEBBELS THAN AMERICA'S CURRENT MONSTER STEPHEN MILLER

How can it with TSA employees in the unemployment line.
