It’s not an “ass-backwards” comment. It’s coming from an Air Marshal who used to fly this exact flight. I know the mission, I know the threat, and I know what aviation security is supposed to look like. Maybe understand the facts before running your mouth.

NEW: DHS confirms to @FoxNews that a suspect arrested on a Newark to New Orleans United flight last night for allegedly storming the cockpit and claiming to have a bomb, leading to United putting out a hijack alert for the plane, is a 2x previously deported Honduran illegal alien. Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto was arrested by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s office once the flight landed at MSY (New Orleans airport) and he has been charged with felony bomb threat, terroristic threats, and disorderly conduct. Per DHS - Gomez-Alberto crossed the Texas border illegally in 2011 and was deported, then illegally re-entered through the New Mexico border in 2014 and was deported a second time. He illegally re-entered the country a third time in 2019, was arrested by Border Patrol, but was released from custody after an immigration judge ordered his release. He is currently being held without bond by law enforcement in Louisiana.

The Watch List That Never Caught a Terrorist | Sonya LaBosco & David Londo | Ep. 481 Sonya LaBosco is a former Virginia state trooper who became a federal air marshal in 2002, one of the last classes required to pass the old tactical pistol course. She was medically retired in 2014 and now runs the Air Marshal National Council as its executive director. David Londo joined the service in 2006 and spent 20 years on aircraft, including time as a recruiter, before retiring. He is the council's president. Together they spent years working with the Boston Globe, Judicial Watch, and congressional oversight committees to expose the Quiet Skies program, and they are now producing a documentary called Watchlisted in America. This conversation covers how a program meant to find threats to aviation turned into undercover surveillance of citizens who were never suspected of anything. A computer flagged travel habits, a team of three marshals was dispatched to shadow the person, and after-action reports came back saying the same thing every time: not a threat. They walk through how it expanded after January 6, how an air marshal ended up assigning his own wife's surveillance detail, and why a Senate investigation and an inspector general audit found zero threats ever caught. We also get into the pre-9/11 standards that got thrown out, why they want the program pulled out of TSA and rebuilt as a small specialized unit, the holes in private aviation and the northern border, and a geotracking contract they say has quietly replaced Quiet Skies.

MOST OF THE SAME PEOPLE ARE STILL IN CHARGE 🚨 YEARS OF WATCHDOG WARNINGS. WHO WAS HELD ACCOUNTABLE? GAO and DHS’s inspector general documented repeated failures involving the Federal Air Marshal Service: ✈️ DEPLOYMENT: Resources divided between domestic and international flights without fully accounting for risk. International deployment decisions lacked documented rationales. 👁️ QUIET SKIES: Inadequate planning, oversight, and performance measures. TSA did not consistently follow its own guidance—and could not assure the surveillance program enhanced aviation security as intended. 🚧 BORDER DEPLOYMENTS: Air marshals sent to the Southwest border without an assessment of the operational risks to their transportation-security mission. Missing baseline measures prevented TSA from determining the impact. 😴 FATIGUE: Shift-length and rest-period guidelines existed, but FAMS did not monitor actual hours against them. Leadership could not determine how often marshals exceeded those safeguards. 🩺 WORKFORCE HEALTH: No comprehensive assessment of workforce health despite marshals reporting sleep deprivation and other health concerns. ⚖️ DISCRIMINATION: A prevention plan left incompletely implemented because management lost focus. GAO documented 230 discrimination complaints during FY2016–2018—complaints, not 230 proven violations. 🎯 EFFECTIVENESS: TSA lacked methods to assess how effectively its aviation-security countermeasures, including FAMS, deterred attacks. These are findings from the government’s own watchdogs. The American people should demand measurable security results, meaningful oversight, and leadership that protects the people protecting passengers. 📄 GAO-16-582 📄 GAO-20-125 📄 GAO-24-107824 📄 DHS OIG-21-11 📄 DHS OIG-24-35 #TSA #AirMarshals #Accountability @LaboscoSonya @BreannaMorello @TSA

@Jukseygirl @MichaelSavaged @KimWexlerMAJD @ColonelTowner @lkhcookie Grassley and his staffers did the exact same thing in the Senate with whistle-blowers.
Jim Jordan had THOUSANDS of documents in 2021 exposing TSA’s weaponization of innocent Americans. I know because I gave his committee all the evidence, including the watchlisting scandal involving Tulsi Gabbard. He had the information and could have stopped it. Instead, he exposed whistleblowers by handing their names back to the agency. He failed the victims and betrayed those who risked everything to expose the truth.

🚨 $15 BILLION OF ABSOLUTE WASTE, FRAUD & ABUSE. And while billions are wasted, Federal Air Marshals are overworked, fatigued, struggling with workforce-health issues, and suicides continue. DHS CWMD had an obligation to protect the workforce. Where were they? Years of GAO and DHS OIG warnings. Years of failures. And most of the same people are still in charge. Enough reports. Enough excuses. WHO IS BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE?

Former White House adviser Calley Means just went on Joe Rogan and named names of people he says were blocking the MAHA agenda from inside the administration. From glyphosate and pesticides to vaccines and FDA decisions, Means laid out the internal battles he says pushed him to resign. He described senior officials shutting down challenges to policies he says directly conflicted with what MAHA supporters were promised. Shortly after the interview was released, President Trump announced Susie Wiles would be stepping aside as White House chief of staff.

This is a formal request for Susie Wiles and James Blair to stop harassing me with texts and calls. If there is a factual inaccuracy in what I said, send it to me in writing and I will vigorously correct and apologize for any misstatements. I will note that everything I said is substantiated by other senior officials. If you want to file a lawsuit and get into discovery of whether it’s provably true that Ballard and Continental had an undue influence on the White House policy process, do it. I believe we are in an existential moment for the country, and Americans were owed an honest accounting of the past two years so we identify the problems we need to move on from.

Until you acknowledge this video that shows Brian Cole Jr. cannot be the J6 pipe bomber, then you are failing at your main job: “Justice”
🚨BREAKING Exclusive🚨 - Never-before-seen Capitol CCTV video reveals that Brian Cole Jr. could not have been the J6 pipe b*mber. He is seen walking on the northwest side of the Capitol at EXACTLY THE SAME TIME as the real suspect was distributing devices on the southeast side of the Capitol. More information in the thread below. 🧵⬇️ **Video work by @accabbat (Armitas)** The video in the first comment below shows me and @KyleSeraphin breaking down and explaining exactly what you're seeing in this short video.

TSA violated Americans’ First Amendment rights, and the most damning part, senior leadership knew what was happening, defended it, and apparently saw no reason to stop. That’s not accountability. That’s institutional rot. If government officials can target Americans for exercising constitutional rights and walk away untouched, what exactly is the Constitution worth? TSA/FAMS leadership doesn’t get to hide behind a badge, a title, or a bureaucracy. Nobody is above the Constitution. Nobody!

🚨HE IS STILL IN CHARGE🚨 TSA’s Brian Belcher owes Americans answers. This Senate report says FAMS leadership was “comfortable” with its actions after innocent Americans were watchlisted. Comfortable? Americans deserve accountability—not a leadership circle congratulating itself. Congress must demand answers. @LaboscoSonya @TSA @DHSgov

🚨WILL WE EVER SEE ACCOUNTABILITY?🚨 In Orlando, the Air Marshal National Council asked DHS’s inspector general to investigate whether Special Agent in Charge Alana Bell ignored repeated requests for air marshal support during an operation that located 122 missing and exploited children. The council said staffing logs showed personnel were available. flvoicenews.com/air-marshal-… In Houston, Senior Federal Air Marshal Mark Crowder told the Senate that when he raised concerns about his wife being flagged as a domestic terrorist, Special Agent in Charge William Aupperlee told him to stay silent and let the investigation run its course. Crowder testified that his wife was subjected to roughly 13 air marshal surveillance missions. govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CHRG… In Washington, Judicial Watch reported that former Assistant Special Agent in Charge Serge Potapov helped create a congressional VIP escort program that pulled air marshals off high-risk flights. judicialwatch.org/new-air-ma… Congress should ask TSA for the deployment records, who signed off on each decision, and what happened after these concerns were raised. The flying public deserves answers. @LaboscoSonya @BreannaMorello @wmahoney5
