That’s consistent with government at all levels. Corruption is normal, hence the plan by the Founders to keep government limited by size and scope.

OK, there's a hole in the security here:

After you you past the blog post with practically no original content, here's the actual article:

TSA Agent Arrested for Smuggling Illegal Aliens

According to a Justice Department press release, a group of Brazilian nationals were smuggled through the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Díaz-Torres allegedly allowed the Brazilians through a TSA security checkpoint without questioning them. The group then flew to New York, Boston, and Philadelphia on commercial flights.

What does the TSA have to do with immigration enforcement? They check your ID and your boarding pass. US Customs is responsible for entry to the US.

This was from Puerto Rico. If you fly from PR to the US, is that considered a domestic or international flight?

If it's a domestic flight, does US Customs handle entry into PR? Should the Brazilians have been treated differently because they weren't US or PR citizens?

Thank God the TSA is a federal agency. Heaven knows private airline security wouldn't have kept us nearly so safe.
