      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Deroy Murdock       Published May 6, 2022              President Joe Biden's bad-idea factory just belched out a doozy: The       Department of Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board (DGB)       rolled off the assembly line to the sound of shrieks and Klaxons -- and       deservedly so.               The last thing America needs is a taxpayer-funded thought-police bureau       that monitors public utterances, condemns them as "disinformation" and       then flags them for dutiful erasure by the Democrat-Left’s social-media       henchpersons in Silicon Valley.               This wretched concept echoes the mind control of the USSR. Indeed,       these bumbling neo-totalitarians gave this monstrosity a name whose       acronym is DGB, which rhymes with KGB. One feels sorry for Team Biden –       almost.              Cut!              "The fact that a federal department with approximately 240,000       employees would set up a ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ to enforce       the government’s judgement of what information is allowed in the public       square should frighten anyone who values liberty and understands how       crucial free speech is in maintaining that liberty," Sen. Ron Johnson,       R-Wis., told the Daily Caller.              Unspoken in this debate is the fact that every American has the       constitutional right to spew disinformation. Allow me to exercise that       natural-born right.              https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/biden-disinformation-board-uncon       titutional-thought-police-deroy-murdock                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
