According to Air Marshal National Council Director Sonya LaBosco, air marshals will be in short supply as more than 30 million Americans prepare to travel for the Thanksgiving holiday. LaBosco says marshals are either deployed at Biden’s broken border or following Americans who were at Jan. 6.
“We just received an email last week that resources are depleted as far as our flying air marshals,” Sonya LaBosco, director of the Air Marshal National Council, told Fox News on Tuesday.
“We are ushering in illegal immigrants on the border and leaving the traveling public unsafe,” she added, telling viewers that air marshals are being deployed at the U.S. southern border instead of in the transportation sector where they belong.
LaBosco says the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) are to blame.
“Secretary Mayorkas has said more than once that the border is secure, so he is not concerned with that. But we all know that the border is not secure. He will not call this a crisis. But now, not only is the border destabilized, our aviation is destabilized as well,” LaBosco said.
“Clearly…we’re not flying right now. The only missions that we’re doing are quiet skies missions, and those are missions that are following the January 2021 people,” she continued, meaning a group in the industry are dedicated to following those who flew to the U.S. Capitol region around the time of the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot, regardless of whether they were present at the Capitol.
“We’re either on the border for illegal immigrants or we’re following folks from January 2021. We’re not doing our regular missions where we’re out there looking for the bad guys. So right now, on most flights, you’re not going to have air marshals.”
Texas Senator Ted Cruz shared the story on X, saying “Biden cares more about illegal aliens than he does about protecting Americans from terrorism. As millions of Americans are flying for Thanksgiving, Biden has taken air marshals out of the skies & reassigned them to welcome illegal aliens.”
LaBosco says Americans should be “very concerned” while boarding planes.
