U.S. senator says Biden administration disinformation board likely illegal

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

I would use another word rather than likely. How about assuredly?

I prefer "mozdefinately" myself.

 

[Puma Punku]

Any American that can not see the danger of a "government disinformation board" is an idiot. Sadly, far to many Americans are , in fact, idiots.. Seriously, this is how some of them think ..." I want the government to control the entire information flow, because they know what's best for me. That's what makes me a radical free thinker".........Where have all the hippies gone?

 

[kyzr]

Without Trump giving them a spine the GOP will do no such thing.

There are several congressman with spines. Jim Jordan for one. It may depend on how the GOP does in the senate...

Republican-led states are threatening legal action against the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) new "Disinformation Governance Board," which they also deem "un-American" and chilling to the free speech of Americans.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares is leading GOP attorneys general in sending a letter to Mayorkas demanding that the department "cease taking action" contributing to a "chilling effect" on free speech.
"This is an unacceptable and downright alarming encroachment on every citizen’s right to express his or her opinions, engage in political debate, and disagree with the government," wrote the 20 attorneys general.
The White House defended the DHS board last week saying that it would operate in a "nonpartisan," "apolitical" manner.

Of course, it is unconstitutional.
Freedom of Speech is a specifically protected Right.
And, Freedom of Speech is specifically designed to protect political speech and voices of dissent.
Freedom of Speech is a essential part of our constitutional democracy.
The Democrats are attempting create an Orwellian totalitarian police state.
These dumbass Left Wing Knuttjobs are going to be sued over and over again over this chit.
Their "Disinformation Governance Board" will go down in history as an epic political blunder.
The GOP should use this issue in the Nov. election.

First Amendment

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects the freedom of speech, religion and the press. It also protects the right to peaceful protest and to

www.history.com

The First Amendment guarantees freedom of speech. Freedom of speech gives Americans the right to express themselves without having to worry about government interference. It’s the most basic component of freedom of expression.

The U.S. Supreme Court often has struggled to determine what types of speech is protected. Legally, material labeled as obscene has historically been excluded from First Amendment protection, for example, but deciding what qualifies as obscene has been problematic. Speech provoking actions that would harm others—true incitement and/or threats—is also not protected, but again determining what words have qualified as true incitement has been decided on a case-by-case basis.

It is totally unconstitutional. But then again, so is the DHS. It's a domestic spying agency & was sold as the way to keep us safe from terrorism but named opponents as the terrorists

 

[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

1. Absurdly Unconstitutional.
2. Lock up the person who thought of it.
3. Say, 30 years, no parole.

It absolutely is.

Psaki lied and said it was a continuation of what Trump did.

Can someone name who Trump had in place for this same body?

How exactly is this group preventing free speech?

Explain how it doesn't violate the First Amendment.

[TheGreatSatan]

The Groomers ministry of truth will only hide truth and spread disinformation.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot, not to be taken seriously.

Well it would have to impede on a citizens constitutional right of free speech. I don’t see it doing so. Do you? How so?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Have you cultists considered what could happen when a Republican takes office and assumes control of the Ministry of Truth?

Maybe you wont like it so much.

 

[LuckyDuck]

How exactly is this group preventing free speech?

When a political party gets control of the government and then creates a government agency to determine what speech "their party" considers acceptable to be heard in the country, that political party will absolutely ensure that only speech and news considered by "that political party" to be favorable to them, will be heard. If they say otherwise, they are lying. I would say the same thing if the Republican Party was in power and created such an organization.

 

[Batcat]

The group labels something as “disinformation” and the liberal media buries the story. Like the Hunter Biden Laptop story was buried.

Read this...

Can you tell us what you don't like...

What is DHS' Disinformation Governance Board and why is everyone so mad about it?

"It's an awful idea, and you ought to disband it," said Sen. Mitt Romney. Here's what it does.

www.cbsnews.com

"The board is tasked with standardizing and streamlining DHS' efforts to respond to disinformation that could be connected with violent threats to the U.S. homeland."

Could you tell us how you would suggest we stop violent actions due to disinformation?

Can I remind you that Jan 6th was a violence due to disinformation... It is so bad that people to this day still believe the disinformation.

What do you think Trumps Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is?

Also in what way are they determining which speech is acceptable to be heard in this country? More importantly in what way are the blocking/preventing speech?
