The TSA says the list of acceptable IDs is subject to change without notice.
WTF!?
Are you new to the TSA?
It’s a joke, and literal security theater. They have never prevented anything serious, ever. They fail 90-95% when DHS test their ability to detect weapons.
Are you new to the TSA?
Not new, my first encounter with them was many years ago now, when they were new, but I only ever have any interaction with them when visiting the US.
I’ve seen it work if you can show them a Price Club, Price Costco, and Costco Wholesale card, with the names matching of course. This is know as the 3/4th’s rule, where you show at least 3 out of the 4 known club cards. Google “Costco rule34” for more info. Don’t tell more than one person though, it’s a secret 🤫
I just notice he has a shirt with a picture of himself. Why?
Like everything in Idocracy, you take something everyday and make it more streamlined and efficient, then stupider, then repeat the stupid part a few more times.
In this case we see the evolution of the employee smock, apron, and id badge, into one all-purpose garment. It’s even one-size-fits-all.
The time when it would’ve seemed to everyone an unacceptable intrusion to make routine demands that travellers show their ID anywhere other than at international borders is still within living memory.
this is a rule made for idiots
OH! OH! I’M SORRY!!! YOU’RE TELLING ME THIS CARD ALLOWS ME TO BUY 48 GALLON JARS OF MAYONAISE, BUT NOT LET ME FLY OUT OF CLEVELAND BY AIRPLANE TO ANYWHERE ELSE??? I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA!!!
Well, I’m just going to have to call my lawyer
Hello, Costco?
I love you
Sounds about right! Costco does not issue official Government ID’.
Ask your self “Would the accept Costco card in another country?”.Sounds about right! Costco does not issue official Government ID’.
They used to. I literally got my passport at a Costco.
Used to? That not right! You got it at Costco, but did Costco made it ?
Yeah; it used to be something you could get done in the photo department. They take the picture, file the paperwork and print out the passport.
It’s the Kirkland Passport - it’s actually just a rebranded US passport, but cheaper, and only Costco is allowed to sell it.
Perfect for when you need to travel in bulk!
I didn’t know about that!
No. US passports have been made overseas for years (decades?)
Technically they would allow it, seeing as costco is a worldwide company.
Now how you enter that other country is a bit more problematic.
They do at Costco in other countries
By the rights vested in me through the power of Costco…
Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me
Sir, take off your pants and bend over that table.
You’ve been randomly selected for an intense search.
But I went to law school there! And I got my ‘too done at Costco! Now let me on this damn plane!
Is this the only form of identification you have?
I know my rights, man.
Jerkoff.
Fascist.

What about the Costco credit card? Not only does it have a photo but it requires an official credit check.
Sounds like a marketing opportunity
TSA is awake enough to notice the wrong ID? Don’t they tend to allow a lot of weapons?
I think you misunderstood the purpose of TSA.
Their job is surveillance. Costco cards dont permit that. Real IDs do.
“welcome to costco, i love you”
