Carrie Cordero: Trump’s Intel Pick Was Briefly on TSA Watch List Due to Algorithmic Flagging
RUSH EXCERPT:
CORDERO: "So I think based on the reporting, so far, it really does look like this was an algorithm based on her travel, based on potential contacts that she has in particular regions. And so I think it‘s one data point that would certainly be subject of her confirmation hearing. In other words, I think senators would want to know where are the places that she was, why was she traveling there, what types of activities was she engaged in with respect to maybe foreign leaders that she was talking to, and what she was doing. But the actual placement on the list, as long as she was removed promptly once it was realized who she actually was. This doesn‘t strike me as anything that was intentional or politically motivated in other ways."
