The TSA LOLs over money spotted (and, it seems, confiscated) because [unspecified crime of trying to transport cash].
So, apparently, if you have a large sum of cash to move from point A to point B, best it not be an actual physical transaction. Because LOLs and confiscation.
TSA Asks America To LOL At Traveler Who Had $75,000 Taken From Him By Federal Agents | Techdirt
The TSA runs a fairly entertaining Instagram account, if you’re the sort of person who is impressed by pictures of weapons seized from stupid passengers. That would be the extent of its social media prowess. Its blog is pretty much a 50/50 mix…

Charter a plane.. no TSA to worry about.
It doesn't even have to be that large a sum of money. People have had cash for buying a used car confiscated because they couldn't prove they weren't going to use it to buy drugs.
+John Bump Yup. Haven't heard that about the TSA, but certainly it's a popular local police / county sheriff routine.
