They are taking place at most airports beyond the US for US-bound flights on US carriers. That extra screening demand by the US is applicable to most EU/EEA airports served by US carriers; the extra security checks are not unique to Argentina.

Not that it matters to anyone at EZE (in terms of how security gets handled) but my boarding passes with AA always show the Precheck thing, so it would indeed be normal inside the USA for me not to have to remove shoes, electronics, etc.
