Dear Lisa Farbstein

A spokeswoman for the Transportation Security Administration on Tuesday posted photos online of a passenger’s luggage, which contained large amounts of cash, despite admitting it violated no laws or regulations.
Agency spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein posted a photo on Twitter showing a bag she said contained $75,000 in cash. “Is this how you’d transport it?” she asked.
Dear Lisa, I’ve repeatedly said that the TSA is filled with goobers, hicks, pedophiles, perverts and criminals. It was a bastard idea to begin with, and the TSA should even now be disbanded and sent to do real jobs – like maybe building a fence along the Southern border. Got post hole diggers?
As for how that would affect you, what would you do? Perhaps something more in line with your abilities and skills, like cleaning toilets? Just asking.
As for the money, it’s none of your damn business.

The only reason I would NOT transport it that way is that the Government would steal it from me if I did.

Added later: Update 5:27 P.M.: After publication, Farbstein emailed
this statement: “TSA officers routinely come across evidence of criminal
activity at airport checkpoints. Examples include evidence of illegal
drug trafficking, money laundering, and violations of currency reporting
requirements prior to international trips. TSA turned this bag over to
law enforcement, which is investigating.”
Yep, they’re investigating how they will split that $75K up among all the LE agencies that have any jurisdiction at that airport…

Yeah, they did not take it. They reported it to the DEA and they took it. State legalized larceny.

Transporting money? Government seizes money? Now, for the $21000 question: Who is the criminal?
