In a bold move to protect the homeland, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has updated the venerable "Quiet Skies" watchlist. This security measure, originally formed to keep the country safe from terrorists, now aims to keep the skies safe from an even more grievous threat to national security — unsanctioned thoughts.
Just ask Hawaii’s former Congresswoman and combat veteran Tulsi Gabbard — Quiet Skies’ newest appointee. According to the former presidential candidate, the day after she publicly criticized Pres. Biden and VP Harris, she earned her spot on this prestigious list. Big Brother’s favorite part of this story is that TSA has provided no official reason for why her boarding pass was labeled with the exclusive “SSSS” for Secondary Security Screening Selection. Whatever she did wrong is none of her business! So, Lt. Col. Gabbard, rest easy knowing you're still serving your country... by keeping it safe from you.
Critics from government and security officials to political pundits have complained about this program, even calling it "Orwellian," and this praise is appreciated. But Inner Party Officials assure any irked proles that it’s merely a proactive measure to maintain unity and conformity. After all, in the modern age, safety begins with safeguarding the mind. So please keep your opinions to yourself and your thoughts in the full upright and locked position — Big Brother is watching.
