Joe Biden's Disinformation Board Likened to Orwell's 'Ministry of Truth'
Conservative politicians and commentators are criticizing the Biden administration for creating a new bureau to fight the spread of disinformation online. Several of these critics have compared it unfavorably to the Ministry of Truth, a fictional department in George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984.On Wednesday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testified during a budget hearing of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security that a Disinformation Governance Board had recently been created to fight the spread of disinformation on the internet. During a Thursday press briefing, White House press secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged the board's existence and noted that President Joe Biden supported it.Psaki said she couldn't provide many details other than saying the bureau would monitor misinformation on topics such as COVID-19 and elections.Critics say the bureau is another example of the government trying to police free speech on the internet. This has led to some comparisons to 1984's Ministry of Truth. The protagonist of Orwell's classic, Winston Smith, works in the ministry, a governmental department that controls information coming from news, entertainment, arts and education. Smith's role at the ministry is to correct historical records to align with the messaging of Big Brother, the leader/symbol of the novel's ruling totalitarian party.
Guess is going to head it up?

Yes I've never seen a time where corporates can't pass on increased costs, or find another source for their product to reduce the input cost, or resize the packaging to get the same price for less product etc.Bezos is onto things here, think it's pretty rare for him to make a post like this. Can't find in my old economics and finance notes where it says increased corporate tax will counter inflation, but I'm sure sleepy creepy joe is right.
His handlers will put it down to dementia.Wow, Biden was just asked a direct question whether the US would militarily intervene if China attacked Taiwan and he said flat out 'yes'. No hesitation. China are not going to like that.
His handlers will put it down to dementia.
Not sure why Biden is so insistent on starting WWIII.
Voluntary euthanasia?His handlers will put it down to dementia.
Not sure why Biden is so insistent on starting WWIII.
Not exactly. But the guy controlling the teleprompter can.A question,
Biden declared (again I think) that the USA would intervene militarily if China attacks Taiwan.
Then the White House pulls back from this.
But under the US system, Biden can do whatever the hell he wants can't he , whether its is a good move or bad? No control at all.
That's the Presidential system.
Funny how much flack Trump copped for putting on tariffs, the media and most Democrats were giving a constant stream of explanations why it was pointless, how it was backfiring and hurting the U.S.
Funny that four years later they are still on and up for review, I guess hate knows no bounds, anything can be said as long as it fits with the narrative.
Obviously the tariffs are o.k as long as it is Biden who keeps them on.
The Biden administration has begun a review of the contentious tariffs that Donald Trump slapped on up to $US360 billion ($508 billion) of China’s exports to the US amid divisions within the administration and a polarised debate within the US business community and economists.Trump’s China tariffs failed but it looks like Biden is stuck with them
Divisions in the White House have been exposed as it reviews Donald Trump’s contentious trade tariffs on China. But it appears inevitable that Biden and America will just have to continue living with them.www.theage.com.au
The review was legally required because the fourth anniversary of the tariffs, or at least the point at which the trade war between the US and China started to escalate, is looming in July. At that point the tariffs either start to fall away or have to be renewed.
Absolutely, but if the importers are having to sell their Chinese tools at the same price as say Snap On, the wholesaler may well source their tools from Snap On.SP you understand who pays for the tariffs?
US punters, US government collects revenue.
