How does a concerned father challenging a school board curriculum wind up facing federal travel scrutiny and an FBI visit? Terry Newsome joins The P.A.S. Report Podcast to expose the terrifying reality of how parental rights, free speech, and political dissent are being targeted by America's label-and-smear machine.


In this powerful episode, Terry Newsome, father of twins, Illinois Chapter President of Parents Involved in Education, and host of Behind Enemy Lines, tells his story of being targeted after challenging explicit material in local schools. The conversation breaks down a chilling timeline showing how the Southern Poverty Law Center, activist networks, legacy media outlets, and federal bureaucratic institutions can create a pipeline that intimidates parents, weaponizes labels, and silences ordinary Americans.


What You'll Learn In This Episode:

  • The Local Catalyst: How Terry Newsome went from an ordinary father to a school board activist fighting for curriculum transparency. 
  • The SPLC Smear Machine: How a national ideological organization can turn local parental dissent into an "extremism" narrative. 
  • The Federal Fallout: How Terry says the SPLC campaign was followed by TSA PreCheck issues, repeated Quad-S travel screenings, and an FBI visit. 
  • The Media Echo Chamber: How legacy media amplification turns NGO hit pieces into public reputational attacks. 
  • The Fightback Strategy: What ordinary citizens can do when powerful public-private institutions try to chill free speech. 


This episode exposes the SPLC machine, the weaponization of government agencies, and the growing danger of allowing unelected ideological organizations to influence law enforcement, shape public narratives, and target parents who refuse to stay quiet.
