The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has … become one of the most unpopular agencies in the federal government.
Even lawmakers who helped create the agency have become some of TSA’s toughest critics…
Yet as Congress continues to bash the beleaguered agency and haul in officials to grill them in hearings, … appropriators have proposed giving the agency a funding bump in the latest spending bills, and most see TSA’s role in securing the nation as getting bigger, not smaller.
“Given the heightened sense of security that we have, I can only see TSA’s role increasing,” Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), ranking member on the Homeland Security Committee, [said.]
Recall, too, that
an explosive report last summer … found TSA screeners were failing to detect fake bombs and weapons in nearly 96 percent of security tests.
And yet
… [C]ompletely getting rid of the TSA is a highly unlikely scenario – no matter how unpopular the agency is.
Astounding, isn’t it? And yet the sheeple’s unswerving faith in and allegiance to the State flourishes.
