expert body to protect the public interest through common sense rules

"Common sense rules" determined by the same kind of "experts" as ADL, SPLC, and the Mary Poppins woman who was the former head of Biden's Ministry of Truth (which keeps changing its name).

empower a new federal agency to create a council that establishes ‘enforceable behavioral codes’ on social media platforms and AI. The council will include ‘disinformation’ experts.

This is just what We the People need! Another set of TAXPAYER-FUNDED, UNELECTED, GOVERNMENT-APPOINTED, LIFE-LONG BUREAUCRATS who cannot be fired, disciplined, voted out, or challenged by We the People!

NOT!

A new amendment needs to be added to constitution that allows individual states to nullify any law passed by the federal government including spending. It’s out of control!

Instead, we should follow the long precedent in American history of empowering an expert body to protect the public interest through common sense rules and oversight for complex and powerful sectors of the economy.”


YES, THIS LONG PRECEDENT MUST BE ENDED.

The Federal Govt is to PROTECT free speech

Almost every “conspiracy theory “ since Brandon seized power has proven to be true. Maybe being true is what makes it misinformation.

These people are evil. The game plan of the one-world communists is clear and it was obvious in 2016 when Hillary tried to shut down opposing voices. This evil witch is truly demonic. They were delayed by Trump in their plan to get rid of freedom of speech. Don’t forget that the witch tried to get rid of 2A during demonic obama’s reign with fast and furious. The elites have made their plans knowns - eliminate 2A and eliminate any and all free speech that opposes them. That way they can control all information that people have access to.

“Digital Platform Commission Act (DPCA)” would flag misinformation and hate speech on the internet.

Hey MSM, this is going to spell your doom when we get back in power. You are all guilty of misinformation and hate speech on a hourly basis.

We will make you comply with this any every other anti free speech measure you try to impose on us ten fold. We will not kneel or comply to your demands, we will not shut up.

Undermining the first amendment, which is the only thing protecting your ability to set false narratives and cover your lies will be gone, and so will you A-hats.

Since he so despises the constitution, someone should introduce a Bill of Attainder on Bennett.

Let me guess: the definition of a woman will get flagged as misinformation and/or hate speech?
