What VPN should I get if so? I thought I would as you guys since y’all are probably more educated on this issue and are willing to look into what is going on with the deep state overreach.

I believe VPNs were set up so they you could, say, work from home without having to install your own cable between your computer and your office router. Basically, you encrypt your data and send it over the Internet instead. So it was not really intended to be a "stealth" device.
It can be useful to pretend you are somewhere where you are not. For instance, if I try to link to certain sites in the US from the UK I am told that I do not have access but if I start using a VPN server in the US then I can access those sites with no problem.
The main problem with VPNs as I see it is that while you are hiding your location from the website you are using you are telling your VPN provider all your secrets like user names, passwords, search history etc.
Using a TOR browser would be more secure but even that is not 100% safe.
