Tulsi Gabbard Confirms "Quiet Skies" Nightmare

Thursday, August 08, 2024

Tuesday night, while self-styled Democratic nominee Kamala Harris pledged to defend "freedom, compassion, and the rule of law" to cheers in Philadelphia, Hawaii's Tulsi Gabbard described being tracked by teams of government agents in a surveillance regime more reminiscent of East Germany than a free country. Whistleblowing Air Marshals told Uncover DC Gabbard was singled out as a terror threat under the so-called "Quiet Skies" program, and the former presidential candidate says she noticed. "The whistleblowers' account matches my experience," says Gabbard. "Everything lines up to the day." .

This story began two weeks ago, when the former Hawaii congresswoman returned home after a short trip abroad. In airport after airport, she and her husband Abraham Williams encountered obstacles. First on a flight from Rome to Dallas, then a connecting flight to Austin, and later on different flights for both to cities like Nashville, Orlando, and Atlanta, their boarding passes were marked with the "SSSS" designation, which stands for "Secondary Security Screening Selection." The "Quad-S" marker is often a sign the traveler has been put on a threat list, and Gabbard and Williams were forced into extensive "random" searches lasting as long as 45 minutes

"Since the mid-2010s, Taibbi's reporting has increasingly focused on culture war topics and cancel culture. He has also criticized mainstream media and their coverage of Donald Trump and Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.

His writing has since polarized readers and fellow journalists.[14]

Using the term "Russiagate", Taibbi covered the story around Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections and criticized the mainstream media coverage of the Special Counsel investigation.[114][115]

Taibbi's book Hate Inc. includes a chapter, "Why Russiagate Is This Generation's WMD

In October 2019, Taibbi argued that the whistleblower in the Trump"Ukraine scandal was not a "real whistleblower" because the whistleblower would have had their life affected by prosecution or being sent to prison.

In response to the March 30, 2023 indictment of Donald Trump, Taibbi said, "If presidents think they will be chased into jail under thin pretexts as ex-presidents, they'll try even harder to never leave office. This is how autocracies are born."

In 2021, Ross Barkan of New York Magazine wrote, "Taibbi is"or was, depending on your view"one of the most celebrated investigative journalists of his generation."

He continued, "Taibbi's critics view him as a reporter turned red-pilled culture warrior chasing subscriptions", excerpts

In other words, Taibbi hasn't been right about much of anything in the last 20 years... he's the new Seymour Hersh.

Not sure why JBelley doesn't just post straight from the source, from TASS.
