    They didn’t deal with people claiming we actually were still ruled by king George after the revolution or that G. Washington was actually dead and being impersonated by Jim Carey.

    You keep trusting the government when it tells you they are going to help. Everything government touches turns to ****, though. Open wide.

    So have we moved on past denying that this is a thing at this point?

    This will reveal the hardcore partisan who cannot condemn the action..... Not that they really needed any more revealing...

    It looks more like she's concerned about governmental overreach so she probably does not have a future in the Democrat party.

    She was the only sane and rational one in the primary so of course they had to throw her under the bus.

    Lol shocking the one who sounds like a Republican is the one you like?
    Most Bernie supporters would at least mention this being used against the far left, but her only concern is for conservatives. she’s a fraud.

    We don’t know what it is yet, but it’s not stopping the chicken littles from telling us the sky is falling.

    You only say that because she's not radical enough for you. Do you have any evidence to support your claim?
    It's right there in the name.

    First you say she's a conservative and now you say that she backed Bernie so now conservatives back Bernie?

    You didn't really think that one through before hitting post reply did you?

    She pretended to back Bernie. As I said, she’s a fraud.

    Do you have any evidence of this?

    And besides I thought you Democrats tell us that Bernie's not a real Democrat he was just riding the coattails of the Democrat party.

    Say what you want about Bernie. His heart is in the right place. He knows the politicians have all the wealth by the balls and vice versa. He wants to shine a light on that. His communication delivery method sucks.

    I don't know where he thinks he would get all this magical money to carry out his agenda from?

    Like his student loan forgiveness. That does not just get written off someone has to pay for that at some point somewhere along the line.

    Having ideas is fine but you have to have a plan to carry them to fruition

    Of course. We are in complete agreement. Which politician has done that in your lifetime?

    Bullcrap! He called it fake news because they broadcast news that was not true and not fair. That is a known fact.

    This is the moronic disconnect we get from libos. Trump's voice is authoritarian but Biden putting people in prison(He would if he could) for speech is patriotic!

    Trump never called for the banning of news organizations he criticized what they reported. Trump never did anything like this.

    So you approve of this?

    What does that mean "her concern"?

    She voted with conservatives just 8% of the time while in congress. She opposes wars and assaults on civil liberties which any liberal should oppose. She also opposes teaching people to hate each other based on pigmentation which any rational human being would. Note ANY RATIONAL human being but not democrats.

    Is constantly saying that white supremacy is the biggest threat to this country not misinformation?

    Based on the news black supremacy or hate is killing more people. Blacks running their cars into a Christmas parade. Black guy shooting up a subway train in New York. It is a bold faced lie but they will control information for the rest of us.

    He does if it is Joe Biden. He is a Biden groupie.

    As Tucker said in his show last night the democrat's ideology cannot possibly sell to the majority of the country without them controlling information.

    Note: This post is being said generally and is not strictly directed at @The Mello Guy . Its for everyone supporting this crap.

    Yes, we do know what it is. A "Disinformation Governance Board". Doesn't matter what their focus is. Be it solely about Russia and Ukraine or to "help" social media sites combat misinformation. It will be used further down the line for other things. That is how government power works. They never take away their own power. They only ever expand it. Unless pressured to by a vast majority of citizens. But you don't care because right now its supporting Democrats. What happens when its Republicans in control?

    Haven't lefties learned their lesson YET? Reid used the nuclear option to make it to where Obama could get more justices on the federal courts benches. Then Republicans retaliated when they were in power and used the nuclear option on SCOTUS. And right now many democrats believe that they should "expand" SCOTUS seats. And that's just the most recent example of tit for tat I can reference. But beyond tit for tat I can reference the Patriot Act. Was originally just meant to be for appointing judges to a "secret court" (FISA Court) that would allow the various investigative agencies to secretly get warrants from a judge to combat terrorism. But it went beyond that and was used to spy on a Presidential Candidate based on a lie from a lawyer and a false dossier made by an opposing Presidential Candidate's campaign. And the President at the time KNEW about the investigation. And lets not forget how Lois Learner used her position in the IRS to influence what political parties got special privileges and which ones didn't. And to cover it up somehow the disk drives that all this info was on (iirc it was 7 drives) got "destroyed" somehow.

    When are you going to learn? This WILL bite you in your collective asses. Stop being so damn partisan and demand that this be disbanded. Or I promise you it WILL be used against you one day. I don't want that. YOU don't want that. But it WILL happen. This is a fact born out of learning from both present, recent, and past history. I'd suggest you learn real fast yourselves.

    Sadly, I doubt that you will.

    I don't know everyone's political affiliation here so don't know. All I know is that there are some that are either defending it, or trying to minimize and excuse it.

    As far as I can tell the only left leaning poster on this thread who has opposed this is @Curious Always

    All the other leftists are like...

    Curious has been very adamant that she is not left wing.

    As far as I can see this is all very predictable.

    The first question I'd ask this 'disinformation board' is: Is the narrative that the Trump campaign worked with Russians to interfere in the 2016 election a disinformation campaign? The second question I might ask this 'disinformation board' is: Is the narrative that the current Ukranian government is any type of democracy a disinformation campaign?

    Despite attempts by libos to call Trump authoritarian he never did anything like this. He also did not weaponize the IRS the way Obama did.
