All the TSA agent does is compare your ID to your boarding pass. Being a frequent flyer, I can say that I've never seen anything to indicate they have even the capability to compare a name to the no-fly list database, let alone being able to do it for all passengers.

I did read an article a while back that explained the TSA no-fly check procedures but I can't locate it.
