>> In case you had somehow managed not to notice, propaganda is a tool of war. Dealing with it is a matter of national security. National security is the prime job of the federal government. Yes, I want the bureaucracy to have that function and to do their job.

Disinformation can be a tool of war, but more recently, it has been a tool against the American People. The reason there is a public outcry is that we, the targets of that propaganda, know how dangerous it is.

We already have Democrats spreading too much bullshit through official processes. We do not need more.

They are using disinformation about us, the people who pay their wages, on a daily basis. Mayorkas is totally unqualified for the job he is in.

>> The FBI determined that the Steele Dossier was full of "Russian disinformation".

>> So, you recognize that disinformation exists and is used as a weapon. That's a start.

This is not a complex topic. We can all grasp what is happening here. IF we choose to.

The following example was raised by Senator Capito:

"When you say we have 'operational control' of our border, is that disinformation? Because a lot of us don't believe that is true." Damned good point.

Disinformation is another word for lying, with specific intent to mislead. While the WH claims it will be used "only on threats and will be apolitical", but that itself is disinformation and you know it. Biden has yet to find any tool of government he will refuse to abuse politically.

It is just a terrible idea and it needs to be added to the list of things Republicans will do on Day One to undo the Biden disaster you created.
