All TSOs swear an Oath to take the position (or they are supposed to, I was not present at all 45k swearing in ceremonies). TSOs have the legal power to deny entry to the sterile area if the screening process is not completed (by verbal notification, if more than verbal notification is needed then LEO is notified). We are not LEOs.
