Isaac SantGUEST
I thought it just felt like we were in this eternal present where this was life now and they were taking dozens of people a day.
Isaac SantGUEST
There's this guy, Nick Benson, who who tracks the deportation flight numbers, the signature aviation flies out of MSP Airport.
Isaac SantGUEST
And at the worst day during that week, they deported 248 people on these flights.
Isaac SantGUEST
On January 11th, I mean, I think of that as Kristallnacht because there was...
PennGUEST
They said, no, it's our civic duty to turn it in.
PennGUEST
It's a different kind of a – could you imagine that happening at Minneapolis Airport? Uh-uh, money gone, passport gone.
PennGUEST
Because, you know, we have a different kind of – we're a little bit more degraded.

If I had to lean one way or the other, I would say, I don't know, maybe I think my if you looked at like my delay and cancellations numbers on flighty, everything went pretty much according to plan.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
But that's because it's a short segment in and out of O'Hare.

Gunnar OlsonHOST
