Alex welcomes to the show Texas Republican Rep. David Simpson, who is the sponsor of a bill passed in the Texas House that will make it a criminal offense for the TSA to inappropriately touch travelers during airport intrusive pat-downs. Simpson says the legislation will prevent TSA officials from treating travelers like criminals. Former newspaper journalist and New York Times best-selling author Jim Marrs also makes an appearance. Alex also talks with regular Friday guest Bob Chapman of the International Forecaster about the economy and other subjects.
