Congress To Fund Massive Expansion Of TSA CheckpointsFears over burgeoning police state increase after passage of NDAAPaul Joseph Watson, Infowars.com, Friday, December 23, 2011 Congress is set to give the green light on funding for a massive expansion of TSA checkpoints, with the federal agency already responsible for over 9,000 such checkpoints in the last year amidst increased fears America is turning into a police state following the passage of the ‘indefinite detention’ bill. The increase in funding has nothing to do with the TSA’s role in airports – this is about creating 12 more VIPR teams to add the federal agency’s 25 units that are already scattered across the country and responsible for manning checkpoints on highways, in bus and train terminals, at sports events and even high school prom nights. “The TSA's 25 “viper” teams - for Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response - have run more than 9,300 unannounced checkpoints and other search operations in the last year. Department of Homeland Security officials have asked Congress for funding to add 12 more teams next year,” reports the L.A. Times. www.infowars.com/congress-to-fund-massive-expansion-of-tsa-checkpoints/
