“Despite undergoing a pat-down search, a federal agent was able to sneak past Transportation Security Administration agents at Newark Airport last month with a simulated explosive device in his pant, an unnamed source told The New York Post. ‘This episode once again demonstrates how Newark Airport is the Ground Zero of TSA failures,’ the source reportedly said. The TSA did not confirm whether the incident took place, telling the Post that it ‘regularly conducts covert testing’ of security and does not disclose details about those operations.”
