Kristi Noem Enforces Real ID Tyranny, Travel Mandate; Tramples On American Liberty

The Homeland Security Secretary announced on X that Real ID enforcement starts May 7, 2025, demanding digital facial scans to board flights or enter federal buildings. She insists it’ll “prevent fraud” and “enhance security.”

According to many liberty activists, Kristi Noem’s latest move is a slap in the face to American freedom.

Critics like Rep. Thomas Massie and Ron Paul warned this was coming—and they’re not staying quiet.

Massie called out Noem’s plan on X, dismissing her security claims.

“Real ID isn’t needed and it won’t stop terrorists from hijacking planes,” he said, noting most 9/11 hijackers had foreign passports. “It’s a national standard and database…primarily a tool for control of Americans.” He’s spot-on. Real ID isn’t about safety—it’s about tracking your every move. Massie urged Trump to reject it, but Noem’s forging ahead, proving she’s more loyal to bureaucrats than to liberty.

According to these luminaries of liberty, this is a power grab by Noem, and amounts to the trampling of the Constitution by the surveillance state — a dream-come-true for the Deep and Administrative State. 

Ron Paul has been battling this beast since 2005, when George W. Bush signed the Real ID Act. On his Liberty Report, Paul called it a “Trojan horse” that “will do very little to make us more secure” but “make us much less free.”

He cautioned it could threaten Second Amendment rights, with databases potentially flagging gun owners or free speech advocates. Paul noted Noem’s sneaky Friday-night announcement—classic D.C. trickery to dodge scrutiny. “It’s a shame,” he said, decrying the erosion of privacy to a government obsessed with control.

Noem’s talk of safety doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. The American Policy Center warns Real ID’s “many tentacles” could harm constitutional protections, with California Democrats already eyeing it to restrict gun purchases.

Congressman Paul flagged this in ’05, noting it might include retina scans or fingerprints—tools ripe for abuse. If Noem’s claims are wrong, this scheme could betray the freedoms Americans hold dear. Her push demands a fight: scrap Real ID before it chains us all.
