In a shocking revelation, it appears the Biden administration has been playing a game of “Big Brother” with American citizens. Republican Congressman Abe Holliday, along with two other members of Congress, found themselves under the suspicious eye of the administration via a little scheme called the “Quiet Skies” program. It sounds more like a bad espionage movie than reality, but unfortunately, it’s all true. This controversial program monitored U.S. citizens without any warrant, raising the question of whether the Constitution is just an old relic collecting dust somewhere in Washington.
The timing of Holliday’s surveillance couldn’t be more curious. At the time, he was challenging the results of a tightly contested election for the Arizona Attorney General position in 2022. Holliday wasn’t just any run-of-the-mill candidate; he is a former U.S. Army member with top-secret security clearance who served 14 months overseas. Yet, here he was, not being celebrated for his service but instead being subjected to more scrutiny than a space shuttle launch. The discovery of this surveillance was uncovered in a hearing led by none other than the relentless Senator Rand Paul, who is making it his mission to ensure this doesn’t happen again—or at least not under another sneaky name.
For those who think this might be an isolated incident, think again. This isn’t the first rodeo of federal overreach in recent times. The Biden administration has been busy playing the role of a nosy neighbor to not just high-caliber individuals like Congressman Holliday but also everyday folks. From targeting pro-life rallies to casting a suspicious eye on parents at school board meetings, it seems every dissenting voice was a potential target. Conservatives feel like they’ve been living in a game of hide-and-seek where they weren’t told they were playing, much less that they were “it.”
Senator Rand Paul’s push for transparency is more than justified—it’s desperately needed. The goal is to prevent this “Quiet Skies” program from resurrecting itself like a bad horror movie sequel under another name. Ensuring that all officials involved are held accountable would send a clear message: the Constitution isn’t optional reading material, it’s the law of the land. The revelation sheds light on a dark corner of government activity and gives hope to those who believe in the principles of privacy and liberty.
The concerning part isn’t just what was done but how it aligns with a broader narrative of government overreach. It’s eerily reminiscent of dystopian stories where freedom is just a word in the history books. Holliday, along with many conservatives, urges vigilance and accountability. With the Quiet Skies terminated, the question remains whether those in power will ensure that the same mistakes aren’t repeated—or if they’ll just find another way to justify spying on citizens who dare to speak out. The landscape of liberty is changing, but relentless voices like Rand Paul and Abe Holliday aim to ensure that it changes for the better, not for the worse.
