Agreed on the witch-hunt feels this thing has, despite TSA being rated, regularly, as one of the worst agencies to work for in the US gov’t.
As for the bonus being money laundering…that’s ludicrous. However, the U.S. Gov’t bonuses I know about generally top out at 3% of salary, and after a person has met or exceeded certain, specified goals for the year. As this dude’s salary was over $180k/year, so I’d like to know how that was set up.
