Patriot,

Since its creation in the aftermath of 9/11, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has always been a public relations “security theater” outfit that never really did anything to prevent terrorism.

It only served to terrorize and humiliate good Americans.

But now, we are at the point where the government is brazenly weaponizing the TSA to silence outspoken American citizens.

This is undeniable, now that they have labeled former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as a terror threat.

The name of the “Quiet Skies” program apparently refers to its suppression of free speech under the First Amendment.

We must raise our voices to defend the silenced, and demand our lawmakers end TSA abuses of Americans.

In my recent column – read it below – I note that in the UK, people are being handed prison terms for those voicing opinions.

And current events in America clearly show that, YES, it could happen here.

As political tensions escalate with no sign of letting up, it’s absolutely vital we speak out while we still can – and demand those who would assault our free speech be held accountable.

Be sure to sign the directive at one of the links above, read the column below, and if you support Campaign for Liberty’s efforts to defend free speech, support C4L with a contribution.

Tyranny in the UK – Can it Happen Here?

As the UK descends into tyranny, where just retweeting something the government doesn’t like can land a person a multi-year jail sentence, Americans are wondering, “Can it happen here?” After all, we have the guarantees of the First Amendment.

But while we shake our heads at UK authorities jailing people for their social media posts this past week, we should not kid ourselves. The answer is that silencing dissent can happen here – and it is happening here.

Here are just three recent examples of how the “deep state” or the permanent government is conspiring to restrict political dialogue in the United States:

1) The revelation that former U.S. Representative and former U.S. presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard has been placed under the bizarrely named “Quiet Skies” program.

As reported by journalist Matt Taibbi based on revelations by TSA whistleblowers, Gabbard was flagged as a terror threat this past July. Every time she travels, her boarding pass is marked so that she is pulled aside for extensive screening. According to the whistleblowers, “Gabbard is unaware she has two Explosive Detection Canine Teams, one Transportation Security Specialist (explosives), one plainclothes TSA Supervisor, and three Federal Air Marshals on every flight she boards.”

As Gabbard herself revealed recently on the Laura Ingraham show, “A few weeks ago, I had the audacity to tell the truth: that Kamala Harris would essentially be a mouthpiece and puppet of the Military Industrial Complex and National Security State. The next day, July 23, they retaliated. Sadly, this is what we can expect from the Harris Administration.”

2) The attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump.

It seems every day brings a new revelation that calls into question whether the massive failure to protect the Republican presidential candidate was just an “honest mistake.” We know from 1963 what can happen to presidents who cross the “deep state,” and we know from Trump’s four years in office how “former” deep state officials can conspire to undermine the presidency with lies like “Russiagate.”

3) The denial of Secret Service protection to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Up until the Trump assassination attempt, the Biden/Harris Administration refused to provide the independent presidential candidate with Secret Service protection. RFK, Jr. has consistently and effectively criticized not only the current administration but the “deep state” itself while out on the campaign trail. Even though there were credible threats against him on the campaign trail, the Biden/Harris administration refused to budge for months. Why? Did they want to silence him?

The U.S. government learned an important – and dangerous – lesson from Covid: all you have to do to crush political dissent is to use the weight of the government to force the “private” sector to do the censoring for you. It is only a half-step away from forbidding us from expressing our thoughts on a virus to sending us to prison for expressing other thoughts the government does not like. And maybe worse.

There will be a reaction in the UK to the brutality of the Starmer regime. We can only hope for their – and our – sake that the reaction will be a newfound determination by the people that no government should have the authority to shut them up or jail them for their political views.

“Free speech, if you can keep it.”
