STILL MORE ON THAT TSA/BLOGGER CASE. “Frischling told Threat Level that the two agents threatened to get Frischling fired from his KLM contract and indicated they could get him designated a security risk, which would make it difficult for him to travel and do his job, unless he identified his source.” I’m sure they wouldn’t have treated a reporter from a newspaper this way. But read the whole thing, including this evidence of top-flight talent at the TSA:

The agents searched through Frischling?s BlackBerry and iPhone, but couldn?t find anything from the source. The agents then told Frischling that they wanted to take an image of his hard drive. They went to WalMart to buy a hard drive, but when they returned, they were unable to get it to work.

Judging from the photo, TSA Special Agent John Enright doesn’t look like a guy who knows his way around a hard drive. The country’s in the very best of hands.
