TSA Adds Kentucky Man, Who Sued Agency 2 Days Ago Over Mask Mandate, To Terrorist Watchlist

The Transportation Security Administration appears to have placed a frequent flyer on its terrorist watchlist after he filed suit Tuesday in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit in Cincinnati challenging the Federal Transportation Mask Mandate.

Michael Faris, a helicopter maintenance supervisor, is trying to fly home today to Elizabethtown, Kentucky, from a work assignment near Ontario, California. When he tried to check in on the United Airlines mobile app, he received a message that his “reservation requires special handling. Please check in at an airport kiosk.”
