Let’s hope Elon Musk has the good sense to move Twitter to Texas, with all new personnel so as to avoid being hamstrung by a Big Tech equivalent of the Deep State. Unfortunately, Texas might not be far enough. If patriots are able to liberate a Silicon Valley cat’s paw, Big Government will then do the dirty work of imposing censorship itself:

The Department of Homeland Security is setting up a Disinformation Governance Board in an attempt to combat “misinformation” online.

By now, readers are likely aware that “misinformation/disinformation” is Liberalese for any speech our rulers want to suppress.

Like something out of George Orwell, the Department of Homeland Security perversely facilitates the invasion of the country. It also undermines our security by attacking our right of free speech, a principal component of the American system of government.

Nina Jankowicz, a fellow for the Wilson Center, confirmed reports that she would direct the board…

The Wilson Center is named after Woodrow Wilson, the Democrat president regarded as the world’s first fascist dictator. Under his rule, Americans were imprisoned for questioning the reasonableness of wasting lives on World War I.

Stand by for more Orwellianism:

She claimed the new board was created to “maintain the Department’s commitment to protecting free speech, privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.”

That is, it is a censorship board.

Jankowicz has long been an advocate for social media censorship and regulation.

She infamously participated in the concerted suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop bombshell, which revealed Joe Biden’s influence peddling to our communist Chinese enemies and which might have spared us from his catastrophic presidency had it not been successfully squashed. Jankowicz comically lied that the laptop was likely to be “a Russian influence op.”

In October 2020, she testified before Congress regarding the dangers of free speech and how to restrict it online.

“Disinformation is a threat to democracy,” she warned…

She should have said “our democracy.” That’s usually how they phrase it when they mean “Democrat rule.”

During her testimony, Jankowicz recommended that Congress start spending more taxpayer dollars to fund a “robust public media” and work on a global effort to combat disinformation.

We are already forced to finance Democrat propaganda through PBS and NPR. But Jankowicz wants more government speech to pour into the vacuum left when free speech is suppressed.

She also hailed Twitter’s efforts to censor users during the 2020 election and urged more technology companies to follow their example.

If social media companies won’t do it on their own, they will be forced to, as iron-fisted Democrats have already made clear. Musk will have the federal leviathan to contend with if he is to bring free speech to a major Internet platform.

In the meantime, as many thousands of unlawful invaders pour across the border to displace us each and every day under the approving gaze of DHS, we can feel secure in the knowledge that this new Ministry of Truth will keep us safe from facts and opinions that threaten the power of our rulers.
