Biden Administration Tops Orwell with \u2018Disinformation Governance Board.\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n

Communism comes in various stripes.<\/p>\n

The Soviets had their version, the Chinese have theirs\u2014these days quaintly called \u201cSocialism with Chinese characteristics.\u201d The North Koreans have \u201cJuche!\u201d The Cambodian Khmer Rouge had theirs (thankfully short-lived) and the Cubans a pretty traditional Marxist-Leninist state with the creepy addition\u2014they have long embedded\u00a0secret police<\/a>\u00a0in the neighborhoods to keep an eye on everybody.<\/p>\n

But they all have in common what they most loathe: freedom of speech.<\/p>\n

Joining them in this abhorrence of the cornerstone of democracies is now the current U.S. administration that is about to install, through its Department of Homeland Security, a \u201cDisinformation Governance Board.\u201d<\/p>\n

How Orwellian can you get!<\/p>\n

But to call that Orwellian is both an understatement and an insult to the great George Orwell whose \u201cMinistry of Truth\u201d was a far more clever construction that contained the ironic overtone intended by the author.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing ironic about the bureaucratic Biden era locution that seems thought up by the totalitarian dullards of our Deep State as a warning lest we peons get out of line and think for ourselves. It owes more to Reich Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels than to the author of \u201cAnimal Farm\u201d and \u201c1984<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

We could also call it\u2014using Chinese rhetoric, since it is their form of communism ours most now resembles\u2014\u201cSocialism with American Characteristics.\u201d<\/p>\n

As in China, this allows for an oligarchic class to continue to enrich itself without untoward intrusions from the lowly serfs.<\/p>\n

That this comes from Homeland Security and its chief Alejandro Mayorkas is more than slightly ominous. Adding to the threatening intent of the initiative is his choice to lead this assault on the First Amendment, Nina Jankowicz.<\/p>\n

Jankowicz was such an \u201cexpert\u201d in the field of \u201cdisinformation\u201d that she was one of those most loudly calling the Hunter Biden laptop story Russian disinformation, which makes her either an idiot or a liar. I\u2019ll go with the latter.<\/p>\n

She was also involved in \u201cstrategic communications\u201d (\u201cDeep Statish\u201d for propaganda) in Ukraine during the days all the hanky-panky was going on with Burisma.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s worse still. Via Breitbart, we learn that the \u201ctalented\u201d Ms. Jankowicz recorded a song on YouTube with the lyrics \u201cWho do I have to [world\u2019s most well-known expletive deleted] to be rich, famous and powerful?\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, we now know the answer: the American people. Second answer: the Bill of Rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
