Then why are they doing the TSA's job: selecting people for secondary inspections (for example, no ID = secondary is part of the TSA's job)?

If they are a TSA employee or doing the TSA's work & have the "powers" of a TSA checker, then they should not be enforcing elite lines. (BTW: I'm "elite" and use elite lines).
