I'm a little behind on this story...
Supporting that it is effective or that it even exists?
That it's effective. An earlier GAO review found that TSA BDO's did about as well identifying threats as an untrained person did by just guessing.

Pure Bunkum!

The other part of this is that DHS announce last year that funding for the TSA BDO program had ended. Seems that's not entirely true either.

How is it that honesty and TSA are polar opposites?
