This meme of Biden behaving badly is getting old, but, alas, we have nearly three more years of it to come. For the full columns in each of these three pieces, follow the link embedded in each headline.
Biden’s new board against ‘disinformation’ cannot be allowed to survive (April 29): The Biden administration is now instituting a speech police program that sounds straight out of George Orwell’s dystopian 1984. Republicans on Capitol Hill are right to try to quash it.
Biden’s secretary of homeland security, Alejandro Mayorkas, has created a Disinformation Governance Board , putatively to “focus” on disinformation coming from Russia and on alleged misinformation from human smugglers about U.S. border policies.
