Having been paid $90,000 in bonuses over the last 13 months, Kelly Hoggan – the head of security for TSA – has been fired…
UPDATE: Kelly Hoggan has been removed from his position as head of security at TSA, following our hearing on May 12 on mismanagement at TSA.

Whether he was responsible for the chaos that has led to 1000s of missed flights (or just following orders to force government deeper into the pre-check registrations) is unclear but for now we have a first scapegoat under the bus.
More @TSA. The official replaced is identified as Kelly Hoggan, the assistant administrator for the office of Security Operations.

The head of security for the U.S. Transportation Security Administration has been removed from his position, the U.S. House of Representatives Oversight Committee said on Monday on Twitter.
The House panel, which held a hearing last week on long lines at airport security checkpoints, did not give a reason for Kelly Hoggan's dismissal as TSA assistant administrator for security operations.
Members of the committee criticized the TSA for awarding over $90,000 in bonuses and awards to Hoggan over a 13-month period.
Remember this – it is an unusual event – a Federal employee being held accountable for some lack of performance.
