COULD tsa make me remove it from my clothes when passing thru security?
If so are they liable if it is taken?
What are my options OTHER than NOT carrying 5 $ Bills?

When I am going through the checkpoint, I keep everything but my keys and phone in my pockets. This ensures that a TSA clerk will not notice my wallet and decide to lift a few of my credit cards.
