She expressed frustration over the 15-minute delay caused by the TSA because she declined to go through the body scanner due to pregnancy-related concerns about radiation exposure.In a post on X (formerly Twitter), she described TSA agents as rude and passive-aggressive, accusing the agency of treating her and other pregnant women like terrorists. She called the TSA &#8220;unconstitutional&#8221; and ineffective, arguing that American air travel feels Orwellian and criticizing the collection of biometric data. Even though her father is the Transportation Secretary, she pointed out that the TSA operates under the Department of Homeland Security, lead by Kristi Noem, whom she indirectly criticized. Duffy-Alfonso urged for the abolition of the TSA, tagging Noem and President Trump in her calls for reform. The TSA, established after 9\/11 to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/asked-if-u-s-less-safe-with-taliban-holding-u-s-weapons-psaki-says-access-to-global-marketplace-gives-u-s-leverage\/\" title=\"Asked If U.S. Less Safe With Taliban Holding U.S. Weapons, Psaki Says Access To \u2018Global Marketplace\u2019 Gives U.S. Leverage\">prevent terrorist attacks<\/a>, has <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >faced persistent traveler complaints<\/a> over delays and intrusive security procedures.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Sean Duffy&rsquo;s pregnant daughter lambastes &lsquo;unconstitutional&rsquo; TSA: &lsquo;Abolish it&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2421190\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Transportation Secretary <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/sean-duffy\/\">Sean Duffy<\/a>&lsquo;s pregnant daughter unleashed her fury on the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/tsa\/\">Transportation Security Administration<\/a> on Thursday after she was subjected to a pat-down and delayed before her flight.<\/p>\n<p>In a lengthy post on X, Evita Duffy-Alfonso bashed security in airports over her treatment on the way to her flight.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/3925827\/kamala-harris-lambasts-trump-jimmy-kimmel-national-address\/\">Harris lambastes Trump on Kimmel after national address: &#8216;Nothing normal&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3925947\/james-comer-house-oversight-committee-drove-2025s-agenda-news-cycle\/\">Comer&rsquo;s House Oversight Committee drove much of 2025&rsquo;s agenda and news cycle<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3925721\/bowser-installs-smiths-number-2-interim-mpd-police-chief\/\">Bowser installs Smith&#8217;s No. 2 to take over as interim MPD police chief&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;I nearly missed my flight this morning after the TSA made me wait 15 minutes for a pat-down because I&rsquo;m pregnant and didn&rsquo;t feel like getting radiation exposure from their body scanner.
