Rep. Abe Hamadeh (R-AZ) has revealed that he was targeted by the Biden Regime’s Quiet Skies program, which used air marshals to track and observe suspicious passengers and subjects of open FBI terrorism investigations while they traveled by air.
Not a single terrorist attack was stopped by the program, and instead, it was used to target political opponents, dissidents, and journalists, following the 2020 election. Even former Democratic Congresswoman and current Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was placed on the watchlist after leaving the Democratic Party.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that she is ending Quiet Skies and launching an investigation into Biden’s weaponization of the program.

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Hamadeh revealed that he, too, had been flagged by the Biden Regime.
Hamadeh said that he was one of at least three Republican members of Congress who were being targeted and noted the suspicious timing of his surveillance, coinciding with his challenge to the 2022 midterm election results in Arizona. “At the time, it was such a hostile environment with President Biden when he was in power. I mean, my God, they were calling MAGA ‘fascists,’ they were calling us ‘threats to democracy’ constantly.”
The Gateway Pundit reported extensively on Hamadeh’s election for Attorney General, which was stolen by just 280 votes after 60% of voting machines broke down in Arizona’s largest county, Maricopa, disenfranchising hundreds of thousands of Republican voters. Evidence suggests that the machine failures were intentional, targeting Republican in-person election day voters.
Hamadeh further pointed out that while Republican officials were being watched, Democrats, despite having “a lot of interesting travel” that could flag them, were seemingly given a free pass.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen’s husband, William Shaheen, was put on the US Government’s ‘Quiet Skies’ screening list in 2023 after he traveled with an unidentified Arab-American attorney who was on the FBI’s terrorism watchlist. However, Shaheen quietly contacted then-TSA Administrator David Pekoske to have her Lebanese husband removed from the enhanced screening list and was then put on the “secure flight exclusion list” by the TSA, giving him preferential treatment.
WATCH:
Hamadeh: I just found out earlier this week. I knew the situation that was happening with Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, where she was on that Quiet Skies program. I knew about that for a few months, and I didn’t really think much of it, but while I was in Washington, DC, my staff got a call from Senator Rand Paul’s office and let us know that three Republican members of Congress were targeted, and that I was one of them. And that prompted us to ask a few questions, and we looked at it, and one of the times that I was flagged was December of 2022, and what’s interesting about that is that was during the time period that I was challenging the results of my election in 2022 when I was running for Attorney General, where that race was decided by 280 votes out of 2.5 million. You know, this is a very legitimate challenge. This is something that you know both sides of the aisle have done routinely. So you don’t know if that was a— if that had a factor, and I would assume so because, you know, at the time, it was such a hostile environment with President Biden, when he was in power. I mean, my God, they were calling MAGA “fascists,” they were calling us threats to democracy constantly.
And what was also peculiar is that I was in the US Army Reserve as an intelligence officer. So, you know, I was— I had my top secret clearance. And I’m not sure if these agencies were talking to each other or discussing with each other, but something was off about it, and I’m glad to see that the Senate, Senator Rand Paul, got to the bottom of it, and also that Department of Homeland Security has now effectively terminated, the Quiet Skies program as well.
Also, it’s odd that there’s only three Republican members of Congress that were targeted. I mean, I’m assuming you know, there’s Democrats who have a lot of interesting travel here that I serve with, as well, or, you know, I’m sure that there’s things that would flag them. So, it makes you question, you know, what the Biden administration, who they were focusing on, and who they were targeting specifically. I mean, look at Tulsi Gabbard. I mean, what a complete 180 for now to have her be running the intelligence agencies as Director of National Intelligence, and it goes to show you, you know, what we were fighting when Biden was in charge, it was a compromised deep state. But for them to continue to watch me, even during my my race for attorney general, when I got back from my army deployment. When I got back in September of 2021, serving overseas in Saudi Arabia, and then that’s when I decided to run for office. And, you know, I was pretty high profile, pretty visible. I had the Trump endorsement. I’ve been endorsed by him many times. So, you know, I was running in a very watched race in Arizona. Arizona was really contested. So it does make you wonder what the federal government was doing.
I think we have to make sure that it never happens again. And I believe Senator Rand Paul’s done an effective job, especially with that hearing in the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee hearing earlier this week, and for the DHS, Department of Homeland Security, with Secretary Kristi Noem to acknowledge the failure of the Quiet Skies program that it that it did not stop, or did not lead to any, any serious threat being stopped— I think that’s pretty important, and so, it’s good to see how President Trump’s administration is reacting to some of the failures of the Biden administration.
It sadly doesn’t surprise me. I mean, at the time, if you remember, I mean, banks were shutting down accounts if they promoted conservative viewpoints, if they were selling ammo or guns, and the banks were being pressured by the Biden administration. You had social media companies censoring political voices that they didn’t agree with. So, you know, it shows you the depths that the federal government, how much sway they have, not just within the bureaucracy of the government, but also with private organizations and private actors as well. And that’s something that President Trump is getting a lot of answers for. His entire administration is. So, I see a lot of progress being fixed on that, and you’re seeing Meta and Instagram, and X, and all these companies now acknowledging the failures of how they reacted during those that time period, especially post covid, especially post 2020, and after the 2022 elections as well.
