Bidens New Disinformation Police Are Only the Tip of the Iceberg
The Biden administration is creating a new board at the Department of Homeland Security focused on countering alleged misinformation and\xa0disinformation. The announcement was made by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas while testifying before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security. The announcement has triggered debate around the nation on the constitutionality of the federal government\u2019s actions, as it appears to be trying to regulate speech. It has also sparked even deeper debate over the environment of online censorship.
The latest move, however, is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to federal government actions to monitor and counter information it deems false or harmful. Already, the Biden administration has been running programs countering information it deems \u201cmisinformation,\u201d \u201cdisinformation,\u201d and even \u201cmalinformation,\u201d which it says is \u201cmalicious\u201d truth.
In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we\u2019ll discuss these issues and others, and answer questions from the audience.
