ICE Barbie Kristi Noem has been accused of failing to address an internal watchdog report that identified “serious vulnerabilities” in TSA screening at American airports.
The watchdog says its memo, which has “national security implications,” has gone unanswered for five months—despite the ousted Noem telling lawmakers “all of the recommendations” in the inspector general’s report had already been implemented, CBS News reports.
Inspector General Joseph Cuffari addressed Noem’s claim in a March 4 memo, writing that his office has received no written or oral evidence that suggests the issues, which include questions about the consequences of a new policy permitting passengers to keep their shoes on through the screening process, have been addressed.
