To ALL of you simpletons still standing in those lines, YOU are the people keeping this rogue agency in place, YOU are the people WILLING to stand there for hours like good sheep and not only get unconstitutionally molested by a government agent, but also allow your wife and children to be molested in the same fashion. The TSA would have been gone many years ago if YOU would've manned up... But you didn't, so OWN it, cause you're the one who maintains the status quo. TSA blames you for longer lines at airport security checkpointsBy NBC4 Staff and Associated Press Published: May 13, 2016, 2:48 pm Updated: May 16, 2016, 5:36 pm WASHINGTON (WCMH/AP) — Facing a growing backlash over extremely long airport security lines, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson on Friday asked fliers “to be patient” as the government takes steps to get them onto planes more quickly. Travelers across the country have endured lengthy lines, some snaking up and down escalators, or through food courts, and into terminal lobbies. At some airports, lines during peak hours have topped 90 minutes. Airlines have reported holding planes at gates to wait for passengers to clear security. Johnson said the government has a plan to deal with the lines but won’t neglect its duty to stop terrorists. “Our job is to keep the American people safe,” Johnson told reporters at a news conference. “We’re not going to compromise aviation security in the face of this.” nbc4i.com/2016/05/13/tsa-blames-you-for-longer-lines-at-airport-security-checkpoints/

Fire The TSAIBD, 17 May 2016 Air Travel: If a private company wasted billions of taxpayer dollars, hired workers who failed to do their job 95% of the time, and then forced people to wait in line for hours, how long do you think they’d be in business? So why is the TSA being treated any differently? Over the weekend, 400 passengers missed their flights at Chicago O’Hare International Airport because they were stuck in a TSA line for up to three. Since February, roughly 4,000 passengers have missed flights waiting to get through security. American Airlines says that, in March alone, 6,800 of its passengers were in TSA lines when their flights left. www.investors.com/politics/editorials/fire-the-tsa/

TSA watchdog spills secret behind long airport linesTruth involves Obama, 'nude pictures of passengers' and fed-up workersPublished: 17 May 2016, Greg Corombos While U.S. airports do have the ability to ditch the TSA and hire private security, Edwards said the Obama administration is making it much tougher to do that. “Congress has had to slap down the administration a few times to get it to allow airports to go private,” he said. “In the original legislation that created TSA, House Republicans slipped in this provision that airports could petition the Department of Transportation to go private, but the Obama administration has made that very difficult.” www.wnd.com/2016/05/tsa-watchdog-spills-secret-behind-long-airport-lines/

TSA head: Expect more airport security delays despite fundsBy JASON KEYSER, May 21 2016 8:25 AM EDT CHICAGO (AP) — The head of the Transportation Security Administration warned travelers Friday to expect long airport security lines to continue during the peak summer travel season despite Congress' shifting of $34 million to the agency. Peter Neffenger briefed officials in Chicago on Friday about efforts to address crushing delays in getting passengers through security checkpoints at major airports around the country. Congress agreed to shift forward the $34 million in TSA funding to let the agency pay overtime to existing staff and hire an extra 768 screeners by June 15. The agency is funneling many of those resources to major hub airports like Chicago's O'Hare International. Neffenger called the money a "good down payment"... bigstory.ap.org/article/413b4e39e6394a64b558c835d0eefd01/tsa-head-expect-more-airport-security-delays-despite-funds
