Hard to understand the wide range of service we seem to receive


That is for sure


Congress has never provided sufficient funds for TSA and CBP screening. The land border xings all got great new buildings, but the inspection booths are understaffed, leading to empty i inspection booths and long waits to cross border.
Same at our airports, the TSA lines are long because TSA is underfunded.

Elon is cutting what little staff there are, arbitrarily cutting all new staff as if new staff are never required. Things will only get worse.


No need to get political. Anyone crossing the border often can see how there is a lot of staff standing around doing nothing. Especially true in the secondary inspection areas.

Seems like the right time to having employee accountability. Absolutely no excuse for year long waits for approvals.

isn't that the truth! but boy have they streamlined the interview part. I arrived over an hour and a half early asked my name and told to take a seat. couple minutes later I was sent to one of the manned kiosk's asked if I was a citizen, fingerprinted, eye scanned adios. five minutes and back to mexico. La Cienega by LAX
