Trump administration confirms another federal agency involved in weaponization: the TSA
Kristi Noem is arguing that yet another arm of the federal government, this time the TSA, was weaponized by the Biden administration.
The Department of Homeland Security said announced Tuesday that an internal investigation has uncovered “widespread abuses” carried out by Biden administration officials, including the Transportation Security Administration having been “weaponized” against Americans.

The agency, in the joint announcement with the TSA, also said the findings are being referred to the Justice Department.

The TSA also said the Biden TSA used the Capitol riot of January 2021 “as an excuse to target several dozen U.S. citizens” and that “these Americans were watch-listed and harassed despite there being no evidence of wrongdoing or illegal behavior.”
The TSA said that “this targeted campaign of harassment continued through June 2021, six months after the events in question, despite no clear or immediate threat to aviation security.”

“Biden’s TSA Administrator Pekoske and his cronies abused their authority and weaponized the federal government against the very people they were charged with protecting,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said on X on Tuesday. “Biden’s TSA wildly abused their authority, targeting Americans who posed no aviation security risk under the banner of political differences. President Trump promised to end the weaponization of government against the American people, and we are making good on that promise. I am referring this case to the Department of Justice and for Congressional investigation.”
Noem has directed TSA and DHS to refer the findings to DOJ’s Civil Rights Division and to Congress for further investigation, to remove “five senior leaders” who had “betrayed the trust of the American people” from their leadership positions, and to reorganize TSA’s Intelligence & Analysis office to hold senior officials accountable and to provide more extensive oversight on TSA’s watch-listing powers.
Commentary:
What impresses me most is the extent to which Democrat Socialists of America were not expecting DJT to win in 2024.
No matter what I'm always pulled aside by TSA when traveling because of all the metal in my body....
