TSA Defends Orwellian Secretive Domestic Surveillance Program

The TSA has broken its silence to defend its alarming domestic surveillance program called “Quiet Skies” which allows the agency to use teams of armed Air Marshals to follow, track and surveil virtually anyone. TSA administrator David Pekoske told CBS news in a recent interview that the program “…makes an awful lot of sense, to be able to look at some risks that we think exist on certain flights and put air marshals on those flights.”
