Dana Perino slammed Joe-Joe Biden’s plan to police free speech with big tech after internal documents revealed social media companies working with intelligence agencies to crack down on what they “deemed to be disinformation.”
This from dailywire.com.
The Daily Wire previously reported:
During a panel discussion on Fox News’ The Five on Tuesday, the co-hosts talked about how new emails have been uncovered that show the FBI and DHS closely collaborating with ‘top social media companies’ on such issues as the ‘origins of COVID-19 pandemic,’ ‘racial justice,’ and the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
They are doing the PR leg-work for the [communists] and the White House. It’s a PR movement.
Perino then read what the government cyber-security person said which was that:
[O]ne could argue we’re in the business of critical infrastructure and the most critical infrastructure is our cognitive infrastructure.
The Fox News host then declared:
That is some Orwellian nonsense. What does that even mean? What is cognitive infrastructure? That means your brain?
I don’t think the government, doesn’t need to be involved in my brain. I’m good.
Another host on the show, Katie Pavlich, noted that the White House basically admitted they were doing this back when former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was speaking to the press. Pavlich said Psaki said prior that:
Well, we’re in touch with social media companies and flagging things specifically that we think they should take a look at.
Pavlich added:
And now we have email proof as a result of this story showing it’s not just the White House doing it. It’s the Department of Homeland Security. A number of other intelligence agencies.
And when you look at what they’re actually doing, the censorship, the punishment of people who dare to go against the narrative of [what the Obiden Regime] wants, it’s actually illegal.
Because they are subverting the First Amendment. They are subverting the Fourth Amendment.
Final thoughts: More impeachment material for the emasculated GOP leadership to package up nicely before filing it away under: Too Troublesome to Pursue. Perhaps nice to know but will this discovery actually amount to corrective action? Certainly not under the current DOJ.
