FTA——Excerpt
Now, thanks to former US Senate nominee Lauren Witzke and her FOIA request, we’re delving even deeper into the very disturbing SSSS watchlist and how the Biden regime is wielding it as a weapon against conservatives.
Here’s what Lauren revealed about her personal encounter with being included on the SSSS watchlist in her post on X: I was on the Quad S list for over a year after running for US Senate in 2020.
Every time I traveled, I had to make sure I arrived at the airport 3 hours early in order to be properly searched, swabbed for explosives, and escorted by Homeland Security to my gate- only to be searched and swabbed again before boarding… and then I had go through the whole process again at my connecting flight. I missed multiple flights and was left stranded in random cities multiple times because of it.
Every single time I was assured that this was just a “random selection”
After a year of this humiliation ritual, Michelle Malkin finally filed a FOIA request on my behalf. She wanted to find out How and WHY patriotic Americans were being put on domestic terrorist watch lists.
They refused to release the FOIA, and I was immediately taken off of the SSSS watch list one day later.
The Biden Administration is putting conservative activists on lists for no reason apart from being their political opposition.
It’s safe to say we’ve reached an extremely dangerous point in America.
This must be stopped.
Conservative activist Brandon Straka also found himself on the dreaded SSSS list.
Straka:
I was placed on TSA’s “domestic terrorism” watchlist and given a designation of SSSS (Quad S)- which requires hours of screening and a team of TSA agents (upward of 12 or more) to follow me around the airport with dogs.
The worst accusations against me by the DOJ was that I stood outside of the open doors of the Capitol on J6 and said the words “go, go” (purportedly as an encouragement to hundreds of people who wouldn’t have been able to hear me anyway), and that I witnessed the crowd passing a police shield and said the words “take it, take it” (it’s never been explained to me why I would care enough about this to contribute, but ok).
Presuming that the above is true, this is why I have been placed on a domestic terrorist list, and this is why you and everybody you care about has been significantly less safe the past 3 years as the majority of security resources are being weaponized to harass and punish Trump supporters.
And—get this: none other than Bennie Thompson, despite his low IQ, appears to be the apparatchik responsible for placing all these conservative activists on the list.
The Gateway Pundit:
A former FBI agent assigned to the Washington Field Office, Kyle Seraphin, has raised concerns about the expansion of the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) surveillance activities following the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol.
In an article published on UncoverDC, Seraphin highlights a previously undisclosed letter written by then-Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS), to TSA Administrator David Pekoske.
Thompson’s letter, dated January 11, 2021, describes the Capitol incident as an “insurrection” aimed at “preventing the certification of a democratic election and, apparently, inflicting violence upon elected officials.” The representative noted the unpreparedness of federal agencies despite “evidence the attack was planned largely in open internet forums.”
The letter details ongoing threats and the failure to arrest or restrict the movement of many involved, highlighting concerns about further violence, including at Joe Biden’s inauguration. It calls for urgent briefings on efforts to disrupt potentially threatening travel, deny air service to identified threats, protect transportation, and safeguard members of Congress and the public.
The letter also questions the TSA’s efforts to identify and add the “perpetrators” of the January 6th protest to watchlists, as well as the agency’s plans to protect surface transportation and ensure the safety of Members of Congress, flight crewmembers, and the public from domestic terror groups while traveling.
Revolver has covered Bennie Thompson in depth. He served as chairman of the J6 committee, which is no surprise, because he’s the Department of Homeland Security’s man on Capitol Hill.
Revolver:
Thompson is a key component in the establishment DNC’s merger with the national security state after 9/11, using the pretext of fake “domestic terrorism”. As an untouchable incumbent in Mississippi with 28 years in Congress, Thompson was the chair of the Homeland Security Committee from 2007-2011 and has been back in charge again since 2019.
Essentially, whenever Democrats have a majority in the House, Thompson is put in as the hatchet man to control oversight of the Department of Homeland Security.
Bennie Thompson scratches the back of an ever-expanding US national security state. In turn, Thompson is rewarded with plush committee chair roles and an expanding DHS turf of his own.
Indeed, Thompson was tapped to serve as the Permanent Chair of the 2020 Democratic National Convention. In the 2020 election, Thompson presided over all official business of the convention that made Joe Biden the Democratic nominee for President.
Ironically, in 2004, Thompson was one of only 31 House Democrats who voted to overturn the results of the Bush-Gore election. But today, the vast Department of Homeland Security agency reports to him. And that agency now calls anyone who claims fraud in the 2020 election “Potential Terror Threats.”
See how that works? When Bennie Thompson does it, it’s democracy. When you do it, it’s terrorism[.]
The America destroying Biden Machine aint done yet......far from it.
On Fox News, Sonya LaBosco, Biden’s Director of the Air Marshals National Council said Air Marshals are quietly following Americans who flew into the DC area around Jan 6, 2021.
Vengeful Biden’s TSA has now ordered Air Marshals (who are DOT employes w/ no L/E duties):
<><>to follow J6 people who have not had any type of criminal investigation –
<><>they haven’t committed a crime,
<><>there is no evidence their J6 attendance was illegal,
<><>now three years later Biden insists they are to be followed 24/7.
The Fox News host weighed in, “You’re saying Air Marshals aren’t…tracking terrorists at all?”
HAMAS is laughing so hard they’re rolling on the floor while planning their next moves in the US...
FR POST 54 Bipartisan Lawmakers Urge Speaker Johnson Not
to Slip “Deep State Surveillance Authorization” in Defense Bill
If a govt organization is suspected of having political bias, that’s unconstitutional.
The US government cannot support that w/ tax dollars.
And this: a very pertinent point regarding the “outsourcing of censorship.”
NDAA SECTION 1532 “That which government is
constitutionally prohibited from doing, it cannot
contract with others to do.”
Let’s ensure that Section 1532 is preserved in the final version of the NDAA.
