  • Kim Kardashian was seated next to an air marshal on a flight to LA and Tweeted:

“I am sitting next to an Air Marshall[sic]! Jim the air marshall makes me feel safe!” Someone messaged her, “You aren’t suppose to know the identity of the air marshal on your flight.” KK replied: “No but I figured it out & he told me! shhhh.” And: “Air Marshall’s are supposed to keep their identity concealed. He did! I am just a private eye & assumed, so I asked him & he was honest!” Seeing as how she has 3,011,693 followers, her Tweets are being called “threats to national security.” Something tells me this isn’t the last we’ll hear of this.
