TSA Head: Sending Air Marshals to Border Doesn’t Hurt Air Security Because We Can Get Them Back if Needed

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “CBS Mornings,” TSA Administrator David Pekoske said that sending air marshals to the border hasn’t impacted air security and they’re only provided if TSA can spare them and “if we need them back right away, we get them back right away.”

Co-host Tony Dokoupil asked, “People want air security. People also want border security.

How are you able to do that and take care of people in the air?”
