Tulsi Gabbard reveals she was put on ‘secret terror watch list’ after criticizing Kamala Harris – LifeSite

(LifeSiteNews) — Just days before Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are scheduled to square off in their first presidential debate, former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard is reminding voters that Harris and Joe Biden engaged in politically motivated targeting of ordinary Americans, including herself.

In a video posted to her X account last Wednesday, Gabbard recalled that she was placed on the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) Quiet Skies program in July one day after she warned about Harris and the Deep State on foreign policy during an appearance on Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show.

News of Gabbard being placed on the program, which is a surveillance initiative the government uses to monitor potential domestic terrorists, was made public after several Federal Air Marshal whistleblowers provided the information to the Air Marshal National Council (AMNC), a national advocacy group for the industry.

According to UncoverDC, the whistleblowers found that Gabbard was being trailed by “two explosive-detection canine teams, one Transportation Security specialist (explosives), one plainclothes TSA supervisor, and three federal air marshals on every flight she boards.”

Gabbard became aware that something was amiss when she and her husband were being patted down extensively when they would travel starting July 23.

“The Harris-Biden regime has now labeled me a domestic terror threat. Why? They see me as a threat to their power,” she said in a video. “The Harris-Biden administration and Democrat elite have spent years weaponizing our law enforcement, national security state — even enlisting the help of their friends in Big Tech and the mainstream propaganda media — to retaliate against those who dare to criticize their acting and their policies.”

After Gabbard’s placement on the Quiet Skies program broke, a number of lawmakers started to speak out against it, including Ohio U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Kentucky GOP U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, who is the ranking member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Paul had sent a letter to the TSA calling the targeting “troubling allegations.” Gabbard recalled during an appearance with Tucker Carlson in Colorado last week that the TSA failed to comply with Paul’s request.

Four Hawaii state legislators also wrote a letter to the TSA describing its behavior as “harassment.”

Gabbard, 43, had represented the Rainbow State’s Second Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives from 2013 until 2021.

Gabbard has reportedly been helping Donald Trump prepare for his debate against Harris on Tuesday on ABC News. Gabbard herself had a memorable debate moment against Harris in the 2020 presidential race when she called out Harris’ hypocritical stance on marijuana laws. Trump recently announced that Gabbard, along with fellow former Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr., will be joining his transition team if he wins re-election this fall.
