FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda 
“Off the charts” failure rate “sort of like the record of the Marx Brothers”

The chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which oversees the TSA, has asserted that the release of a classified report on TSA security failures will renew calls for the replacement of the agency with private airport security personnel.
“The failure rate (for body scanning equipment) is classified but it would absolutely knock your socks off,” Florida Republican, Rep. John L. Mica told reporters during a briefing Monday.
Mica also asserted that recorded instances of pat downs failing to detect contraband are “off the charts.” This information is also currently still classified, but is due to be released within weeks as part of an upcoming committee report on the TSA’s first decade.
Mica suggested that the TSA’s performance report would read “sort of like the record of the Marx Brothers”.
The TSA has withheld results of its official security tests, despite repeated requests to release the information under the Freedom of Information Act.
The Department of Homeland Security has classified the results of the most recent random, covert “red team tests,” where undercover agents try to see what they can get past airport security. The reason they have done so, according to MIca, is because the results have been so shockingly and consistently bad for the past nine years.
Mica further slammed the TSA Monday, ripping into the agency’s latest experimental security “chat down” procedure.
The chairman referred to the pilot program of “behaviour detection” being tested at Boston Logan airport as an “idiotic mess”.
Describing the program as a poor man’s version of Israeli interrogation security techniques, Mica noted that that the pilot is merely an extension of an already existing program that the Government Accountability Office concluded had little scientific credibility and had cost “a quarter billion” in hiring additional TSA officers.
“This is no joke,” Mica told reporters at the briefing, adding that he had personally visited Logan airport and witnessed first hand the failures of the program.
“I put my ear up and listened to some idiotic questions,” Mica said of the “chat down” procedure, also noting that TSA officers expressed a lack of understanding of the program they had supposedly been trained to engage in.
“I talked to them about their training, which was minimal,” Mica said, adding “It’s almost idiotic… It’s still not a risk-based system. It’s not a thinking system.”
The program is set to be beta tested in Detroit next, before being rolled out nationwide.
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
Mica repeatedly argued that the TSA’s role at airports could be undertaken in a more efficient and less costly manner by private companies, albeit ultimately still under the supervision of the federal government.
Back in March, the Congressman charged that the TSA intentionally fixed data to ensure that federal workers were employed to screen airport passengers, rather than private contractors.
“TSA cooked the books to try to eliminate the federal-private screening program,” said Mica at the time.
The Congressman was referring to revelations from federal auditors that cost differentials between federal employees and private contractors were overstated by the TSA.
Though the agency contends it was an “error”, The TSA made it appear that it was more cost effective for airports to use federal government workers for security “by increasing the costs for private-contractor screeners relative to federal screeners,” government auditors wrote.
The 2001 Aviation Transportation Security Act, which created the TSA, contained an option written in by Congress allowing airports to choose between using TSA workers and private screeners. It is known as the Security Partnership Program (SPP).
Currently, sixteen airports throughout the country use private contractors under the SPP, however, the TSA has since actively prevented other airports from joining the program, as more and more express an interest in dropping the federal workforce in wake of an epidemic of TSA scandals and failures.
Mica, who helped create the TSA after 9/11, has repeatedly stated that he believes the agency is now completely out of control and believes it should be radically reformed.

So let’s see, instead of using private contractors with their original pay scale, you want to raise their pay to make private contractors more expensive than Federal security. Then when the airports can’t pay for private contractors anymore, they find TSA security all right there at their doorstep just waiting to be put in effect at the original cost of private contractors before their pay raise. Nice. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like a big corporate/government scam to me!!! Blackmail, anyone?

think a little simpler..
IF the creeps in DC hadnt taken away 2nd amendment rights on aircraft,
from already background checked concealed carry permitted citizens..
THEN something like 911 (as their “official story” proclaims) couldnt have happened.
I’d stated that many times over at infowars, maybe Ron Paul saw one of those posts?
SECURITY, would be bomb sniffing dogs, simple metal detectors, a concealed in a carry on bag seen in an x-ray machine that wasnt made a fuss over, just present your CCP and go.
it’d also be “them” knowing by someones ID that they have a CCP and handing em some rounds that arent supposed to penetrate a hull.. it’d be lots cheaper than this current BS!
(mythbusters already showed pressurized cabins dont explode for a darn bullet hole)
these nazi TSA buttheads were inspecting the pilots for friggin weapons?
excuse me, that 65 ton aircraft could be a weapon if they wanted it to be…
isnt that what they claimed the hijackers used the planes for? (duuuuhhh..)
the airlines were more secure when people, and pilots, were allowed to carry.
what is happening now isnt anything but fraudulent “security theater”, harassing good people, sending the pervs in DC all the kiddie porn they could want for free, slave conditioning, creation of nazi thug “jobs” for US to pay for being humiliated by thieves and paedophiles..
not saying your observation isnt valid, it IS how these slimeballs think they’ll get over,
and not have to eliminate their bogus program completely.
if a dozen passengers are legally armed and someone dont know which ones..
-an armed society is a polite society.
I will not take a trip in an airplane, bus or train until Homeland Security is dismantled and Big Sis is brought to justice in the Old Way.

Maybe, but ….uh….you can retie a bolen quicker and use just one quick jerk to untie it.
Its a tough choice. We need to form an “investigating committee” to explore the possibilities on this and discuss any and all options before reaching a final decision. Before we do that, we’ll need to form a committee to name the new committee. Uh…..right.
Will it be the ever popular “sheep shank”, or, will it be the “little known lowly bolen”? To make matters even more confusing, what type of rope shall be used?! Right! Do we let them “swing”, or, do we drop them through the trap? AAWW!!
AHHH! Decisions decisions! With so many other variables open, it is often extremely difficult to decide. See what I mean? LOL!

hoaxie, tell the attendant to give you your meds and to change your diaper.
You’re beginning to get ripe, and you make squishy sounds when you waddle.
Personally, I kinda take exception to the reference to the Marx Brothers, as they were an exceptionally successful comedy team for about 30 years. One of my favorite life philosophies was spoken by Groucho: You are only as old as the woman you feel.
This article isn’t telling many people on this site anything new. There are two obvious questions, however, that are raised: 1. If the TSA are so provably inept and stopping any level of security breach, what is the real threat level from terrorists? 2. Now that this information has become public, what is the Vegas line on how many trumped up, whacked-out, faked breaches of security will be suddenly, magically “discovered” by Fat Janet and her TSA Thugs over the next few weeks?

you’re exactly right, expect false flag “job security” missions.
Hang Janet Napolitano by her own dildo strap. Justice now MIICA and don’t play stupid. TSA has nothing to do with security of passengers you smuck.
TSA=NAZI bastards and dykes. Nothing more.

What is the tinsel strength of the strap? Its important. We need to make sure that the strap will hold all that weight when she drops through the trap. PSI and all that! LOL!@

Reminds me of Catherine the Great. She used to strap herself under a horse and – well, you know.

That Catherine the Great rumor is a false one.
Consequence of being a sexually liberated and active woman back in the day.
If you were female, enjoyed sex, but were too royal and rich to be convincingly labeled a whore…then you died trying to have a horse lowered onto you for sex.

Janet N and her circus of molesters doing all they can to maintain control. Seems to me they are using mafia tactics to continue harassing innocent US citizens, bullying airports into service contract agreements.

yes, and a couple months ago when Texas wanted TSA gone,
they threatened to make it a “no fly zone”..
which might have been nice opportunity to shoot down chemtrail planes!

The “transparent” Obama administration will release this information soon.
I wonder how much will be redacted for “national security?”
This is really embarrassing to the U.S. in front of the whole world. I’m tired of this crap.

Just watch the TSA run more of these training exercises where they’ll magically catch all sorts of stuff. Likely do to the fact they’ll tip off the airport ahead of time. They’ll claim their accuracy is improving.

Congressman: Secret Report On TSA Pat Downs, Body Scanner Failures Will “Knock Your Socks Off
=============================================================
The TSA is already doing total strip searches, body cavity searches etc. Whats a pair of socks compared to that? Its a shame someone couldn’t stick one of those spring coiled snakes up their ass, you know, the kind that they put in those wind up “Jack in the Boxes”. When the TSA went to look….”SURPRISE”!. Hell, even a bad case of the “SQUIRTS” would work. Wouldn’t that be a sight?

Mica helped create this monster. Either he proposes a complete dismantling of it or his constituants should boot him out of office next election. That is usually the price for poor judgement.
Can you imagine the pressure the TSA molestation is under with all this stuff getting through. These TSA written will go hard core sexual assault on everybody they come across.
