This week on Whistleblower of the Week, former Federal Air Marshal Robert MacLean joins host Jane Turner to share his story of exposing safety risks within the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
MacLean recounts how his 2003 disclosure about air marshals being pulled from long-distance flights led to years of retaliation, including termination, legal battles, and attempts to discredit him. Despite the personal toll, he continues to push for transparency and the protection of those who speak out.
Listen now to hear how one whistleblower’s pursuit of justice sheds light on the challenges of reforming government agencies—and the enduring importance of the First Amendment.
