    to police internet for 'disinformation'

    Conservatives referred to the move as 'Orwellian'

    Conservatives on social media slammed the Biden administration after it was announced that a "Disinformation Governance Board" is being established to combat "disinformation" in the 2022 midterms.

    Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testified Wednesday that a Disinformation Governance Board had recently been created, days after Tesla CEO Elon Musk purchased Twitter, to combat online disinformation and will be led by Undersecretary for Policy Rob Silvers and principal deputy general counsel Jennifer Gaskill.

    Elizabeth Warren calls for new 'rules' to govern 'unregulated' social media amid Musk's Twitter takeover

    Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., called for new "rules" to govern "unregulated" social media amid Tesla CEO Elon Musk's takeover of largely liberal Twitter.

    During an appearance Wednesday on MSNBC's "The Beat With Ari Melber," Warren declared that "rules of the road" were needed for Big Tech, and that decisions about large communications platforms needed to be made "as a democracy," rather than someone like Musk, who she claimed "plays by his own set of rules."

    Right on time for the mid-terms.

    Though I'm not certain what they could do to uphold their establishment narratives that they haven't already been doing.

      MSNBC analyst claims he was confronted by a 'Musk bro' at an airport

      Frequent MSNBC guest Anand Giridharadas accused supporters of Tesla CEO Elon Musk of confronting him at an airport on Wednesday.

      "Some Musk bro just confronted me at an airport, right outside security, but only once he had cleared it, in case you’re wondering whether this digital army he is unleashing is online-only," Giridharadas tweeted.

        So she's calling for the government to openly violate the First Amendment. Nice.

          I meant the bureaucratic Ministry of Truth they've created. They already own most of the MSM, the "fact checkers," and most of social media (twitter remains to be seen). What more can they do, unless they're planning to get outright totalitarian, but even in that sense I'm not sure what they could do. They don't control the entire internet... yet.

            This whole Twitter thing has got them in a tailspin - who knows how far they would go...

              She's had a frenemy relationship with free speech for a while.

                    They had to create it, because they just lost their last one when Musk bought twitter.

                    Strange how just after Musk buys twitter who the right believes has been silencing conservative voices, the government decides to create a "disinformation governance board" huh?

                    Also remember when the white house was urging social media to do their dirty work for them with shutting down COVID misinformation?

                    Not only is government interference in free speech wrong, it is unconstitutional. This needs to be brought before the supreme court.

                          I heard she was one of those who claimed the Hunter Biden laptop deal was "fake" and that the Trump Russian scandal was "true" - so she doesn't have a very good track record of sniffing out misinformation.

                            No, she is exactly right for the job, for the ends they are seeking...
