The Biden administration secretly tracked American citizens’ social media posts. This shocking truth came out during a White House meeting. Secretary of State Marco Rubio exposed how a State Department office spied on everyday people and Trump officials.
Rubio said the government made files on Americans they accused of spreading “disinformation.” These files included posts from Facebook, Twitter, and other sites. One target was a former Trump official sitting in the room during the meeting. Rubio refused to name names, but Vice President JD Vance joked it might’ve been him or Elon Musk.
This surveillance program ran through an office called the Global Engagement Center. Taxpayer dollars funded bureaucrats to monitor citizens’ opinions. Conservatives were likely targeted for questioning COVID rules or election integrity. Free speech advocates call this outright censorship disguised as “fact-checking.”
Rubio warned that crushing free debate helps dictatorships, not democracies. He said sunlight – not secret files – kills lies. The Biden team claims they fought “misinformation,” but patriots see a crackdown on dissent. Americans shouldn’t fear their government tracking their tweets.
Legal experts admit the government can technically view public social media. But compiling dossiers crosses a red line. It turns federal agencies into thought police. Imagine if Trump had done this to liberals – the media would’ve erupted.
The White House still hasn’t explained who was watched or why. Were they tracking moms worried about vaccine side effects? Veterans questioning foreign wars? This abuse reminds us why the First Amendment exists.
Every freedom-loving American should demand answers. Government exists to serve us, not monitor us. November’s election will be a referendum on stopping this creeping tyranny. Our founders didn’t risk their lives for a country that spies on its own people.
