Federal Air Marshal Whistleblowers Expose Weaponized TSA 'Quiet Skies' Program

Erin Schniederjan : Aug 8, 2024  The Daily Signal

Federal agencies colluding with the private sector to carry out their efforts to censor Americans who question the Establishment is a fascistic tactic ... If the administrative state is willing to target even high-profile political figures, you can imagine what's being done to ordinary Americans.

The whistleblowers have come forward to the Air Marshal National Council, an advocacy council for air marshals. The whistleblowers have reported that former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii—a lieutenant colonel in the US Army Reserve and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate—has been a target under the program, resulting in her being added to the TSA's suspected-terrorist watchlist.

The Quiet Skies program's purpose is to protect Americans on domestic flights from those who may present an elevated security risk. Since the TSA identified Gabbard as a "security risk," she unknowingly had "two explosive-detection canine teams, one Transportation Security specialist (explosives), one plainclothes TSA supervisor, and three federal air marshals on every flight she boards."

While the TSA claims that race and religion are not considered when enrolling someone in Quiet Skies, political affiliation is excluded from that policy. In 2022, Gabbard left the Democratic Party and became an independent, and she has been critical of both the party and the military-industrial complex.

Gabbard recently criticized the Biden-Harris administration and denounced unnecessary and endless wars. Soon after she made her remarks, she was unknowingly assigned federal air marshals to acoompany her on her flights.

In the Biden-Harris administration, the government has weaponized its powers to intimidate and silence political opponents.

For example, the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency surveilled and censored Americans on social media by colluding with Big Tech.

The House Judiciary Committee and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government concluded in a report that "CISA expanded its unconstitutional practice by developing an elaborate social media censorship apparatus spanning multiple organizations, in order to facilitate the censorship of Americans' political speech, both directly and by proxy.

"There is no constitutionally viable legal authority that allows CISA to engage in this or any other kind of censorship."

The Biden-Harris administration has also weaponized the IRS by making unannounced visits to taxpayers' homes to harass and intimidate them.

The committees listed some of the abuses committed by the IRS: "The IRS conducted an unannounced field visit to the home of journalist Matt Taibbi the same day he testified before Congress about government abuse ... [and] an IRS agent gave a fake name and used deception to gain entry into the home of an Ohio taxpayer and then threatened her when asked to leave."

Since such abuses by the IRS were exposed by Congress, it has stopped making unannounced visits to the homes of taxpayers.

A third example of the weaponization of government by the Biden-Harris administration occurred when the FBI targeted traditional Catholics and categorized them as domestic terrorists. The committees found that "the FBI abused its counterterrorism tools to target Catholic Americans as potential domestic terrorists ... . [T]he FBI relied on at least one undercover agent to develop its assessment, and the FBI even proposed developing sources among the Catholic clergy and church leadership."

The administrative state finds virtuous Americans who want what is good for their families, communities, and country to be the ultimate threat.

The Biden-Harris administration is no stranger to weaponizing government agencies against Americans who want to live peaceful and prosperous lives. Federal agencies, under the aegis of the Left, have targeted Americans for opposing the administrative state.

The Federal Air Marshal Service whistleblowers have exposed the latest instance of a weaponized agency targeting Americans, and there are more targeted individuals to be announced, the Air Marshal National Council promised Sunday.
