DHS Sets Up Board to Monitor Speech
DHS Sets Up Board to Monitor Speech
This is a troubling development that should concern all freedom loving Americans. We must ask the Lord to preserve our free speech.
From The Center Square. Critics have raised the alarm after the Department of Homeland Security announced the creation of a new federal board that will monitor and combat speech it deems “disinformation.”
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas spoke about the “Disinformation Governance Board” while testifying before Congress this week. Mayorkas called disinformation a “threat” that needs to be addressed with federal law enforcement power. DHS has pointed to disinformation given to migrants as well as Russian disinformation….
What or who constitutes a threat will be determined by the federal government, and critics say that is a big problem.
U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., posted a video on Twitter saying the “Soviet-style censorship agency” is evidence “the marxist left are coming after your most basic constitutional rights….
“Guys it’s time to wake up,” he added. “If you don’t think these people are coming after free speech. If you don’t think they are … coming after freedom, you better believe it now.”
Those concerns were heightened when news broke that Nina Jankowicz announced online that she would be “serving in the Biden Administration [DHS] and helping shape our counter-disinformation efforts.” Jankowicz worked as a global fellow at the Wilson Center where her research focused on disinformation.
Critics quickly pointed to Jankowicz’ remarks about the Hunter Biden laptop story and disinformation. The laptop story has become a focal point in the debate over censorship, particularly on social media, as evidence has increasingly verified many parts of that story that was labeled as misinformation and censored by mainstream and social media in the weeks before the 2020 presidential election….

They want to remove all the influences of Biblical Christianity. Unbelieveable!
Make no mistake about this, when Elon Musk bought Twitter and the left/Gobalists lost a piece of their control over Conservative voices, they will do anything and I don’t think I,m over speaking this to regain and shut down our voices. They actually believe they have a right to do whatever to stop any thinking which isn’t theirs. This new agency is straight iut if 1984, the Orwhell saga. They will have people squeeling on their neughbirs because if they loise control of congress, they loose their grip on the power. The gal they’ve put in charge of this department is as looney tume as one of those cartoon characters we used to watch on Saturday mornings. This new board is the latest, but not the last trick the left will use to try to keep power. Hold onto yoyr hats folks.
Even as we have found new authority to fire school board members so the Lord God will give strategy to come against this 7ngodly action to close it down even as HE is moving to confuse and destroy female impersonators w h o use CCP tattempt destruction.
We can claim a Double Portion of righteous authority in this Passover season. BEHOLD YOUR. KING..
Wake up and pray up Christians or you will soon not see anything with Christian content or truth on any media platform.
This department should be refunded immediately
I continually am overwhelmed by our federal administration. The saga of repeatedly bizarre developments by the executive branch of our federal government is a spiritual issue. We have prayed that there would be repentance from leaders who push antichrist policies. This latest ‘Ministry of Truth’ is the apex of good versus evil. I pray that individuals would repent and turn to God, but if they don’t I pray that they are removed from office. Certainly, we are in spiritual warfare. Dear Lord, help us to fight with your weapons against this present evil.
