Sean Duffy’s daughter calls out TSA as ‘unconstitutional’ after pat-down

Evita Duffy-Alfonso described a 15-minute TSA pat-down during pregnancy as 'absurdly invasive' and called the agency unconstitutional while urging reform or abolition.

  • On Thursday, Evita Duffy-Alfonso, daughter of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, said she nearly missed her flight after a 15-minute pat-down because she declined the body scanner while pregnant.
  • Declining the scanner, Evita Duffy-Alfonso cited avoiding radiation exposure to her unborn child and suggested using CLEAR for shorter biometric lines.
  • Duffy-Alfonso described agents as rude and the pat-down as `absurdly invasive`, causing a screening delay.
  • Commenters suggested she consult her father or contacts, but neither Kristi Noem, DHS leader, nor Sean Duffy replied, and DHS and DOT did not immediately comment.
  • She argued the TSA violates the Fourth Amendment and should be abolished, praising President Donald Trump and DHS leader Kristi Noem while urging better treatment for expectant mothers.
