The new 'Ministry of Truth'

Last week, the Biden Administration’s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced that DHS will form a “Disinformation Governance Board” run by Nina Jankowicz.

Jankowicz is a self-described “disinformation expert.” It’s ironic because she literally aided in misinformation and the cover-up of the Hunter Biden laptop in October 2020 saying on ABC News when asked, “We should view it as a Trump campaign product.” It wasn’t just misinformation but also election tampering.

She also pushed the disinformation and narrative that Republicans funded the now-discredited Steele dossier that was proven to be funded by the DNC and the Hillary Clinton Campaign. Jankowicz is an expert in disinformation for sure.

With Nina at the helm, it’s more likely that they will be promoting disinformation and ideologies, and just flat out censoring real conversations, given that in the last two years the government has been working with social media to censor even experts in their respective fields.

If you want to control people, it’s easier when you hide information from them and control public discourse.

Have you seen how the mainstream media has been freaking out about Elon Musk taking over Twitter? Musk says he’s going to open it up and just censor speech that is against the law. They are clearly afraid of free speech and not being able to control narratives.

I don’t believe it’s even legal or constitutional to have a Ministry of Truth with the First Amendment still intact. So, I expect they will be depending on people to self-censor or just big tech to comply. How do they expect to get away with it? It’s really akin to something out of 1984 where the agency that produces propaganda for the government decides what people are allowed to say.

This is just so desperate and ridiculous. Again, it’s all about power and politics. Think about how ridiculous it is that with literally MILLIONS of people streaming across our border ILLEGALLY and with more than 100,000 of our young people dying from fentanyl, the government instead is acting to control citizens' LEGAL free speech and their right to attend and have grievances against their school boards. The priorities just continue to be so upside down, divisive and ridiculous.

Secondly, with priorities like this, how are you accountable to the people for the job you are doing? It’s so much easier to look for enemies behind every tree who aren’t really there than to stop the real enemies who are killing our children with fentanyl that they bring with them across the border.

The administration needs to just admit that their politics and ideology are wrong and dangerous, unless they really do want to ruin our country, especially with the support of most of the mainstream media.

The role of news media in a free society is supposed to be to investigate, inform, and provide a crucial check on political power. But what we’ve seen is mostly complicity. It’s an evil trinity between the media, big tech and the government. People are waking up and I don’t think they will ultimately be successful.

Before DHS formally created their “Ministry of Truth” last week, I reported a month ago that President Biden’s National COVID-19 Preparedness Plan, https://www.whitehouse.gov/covidplan/, formally requested that major tech platforms submit information about COVID-19 “misinformation” on all their platforms, networks, search engines, crowdsourcing platforms and instant messaging. It was announced by Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy.

The “request” demanded that the tech companies send the data and analysis on COVID-19 “misinformation” starting with vaccine misinformation as outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on their website, https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/facts.html. By the way, I wonder if Elon Musk will conform to that?

I wrote, at that point, they were working on becoming the “Ministry of Misinformation” and the national media, for the most part, goose-stepped to their ever-changing “science.” They already had started reaching out to the tech companies, families and neighbors of people to ensure goose-stepping compliance, thought control, and likely punishment.

For a partial list of items the government originally labeled “misinformation” in the last year or so and then changed its mind, go to the link below: https://www.villagenews.com/story/2022/03/10/opinion/science-doesnt-matter-only-compliance-be-a-goose-stepper/69262.html

When they ask you to start telling on your neighbors, family and friends, do the right thing. Don’t comply. Enjoy open discourse and learn from each other. Be informed and figure out your own opinions on important topics of our time by researching and talking with those around you. Don’t self-censor. Be brave. Just say no.
