flag Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy joked that blocking the shutdown’s end should warrant a "no-fly list," blaming Senate Democrats for flight disruptions due to staffing shortages.

flag Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy joked during a Breitbart-hosted event that Senate Democrats blocking the government shutdown's end should be added to a "no-fly list," urging them to stay in Washington. flag He blamed the shutdown for flight disruptions due to staffing shortages at airports, citing reduced operations at major hubs like Atlanta, Chicago, and Dallas. flag Duffy, referencing his 2018–19 shutdown experience, criticized Democrats for refusing to advance a House-passed continuing resolution, arguing it unfairly harms travelers and federal workers. flag The standoff centers on disagreements over funding for domestic priorities and broader policy issues, with Republicans accusing Democrats of using the shutdown for leverage and Democrats saying the White House refuses to negotiate on key provisions like Affordable Care Act tax credits. flag The lighthearted comment underscored growing frustration over the shutdown’s ongoing impact on public services and daily life.
