You want to listen to a podcast?
By who?
Georgia GOP Congressman Doug Collins.
How is it?
The greatest thing I have ever heard in my whole life.
I could not believe my ears.
In this house, wherever the rules are disregarded, chaos and mob rule.
It has been said today, where is bravery?
I'll tell you where bravery is found and courage is found.
It's found in this minority who has lived through the last year of nothing but rules being broken, people being put down, questions not being answered, and this majority say, be damned with anything else.
We're going to impeach and do whatever we want to do.
Why?
Because we won an election.
I guarantee you, one day you'll be back in the minority and it ain't gonna be that fun.
Hey everybody, it's Doug Collins.
Welcome back to the podcast.
Let's jump right in to some things that are going on.
I'll hit a couple of quick topics.
I've given a little bit of a take on this.
I want to do it a little bit further.
And it's really concerning about the Supreme Court League.
Maybe you've heard about it.
You know, now it's set off a complete firestorm.
We talked about it on the podcast, the abortion issue, the Dobbs case.
But I just want to hit it before I get into, I think it's a total picture of what we're looking at here.
The whole abortion debate has been really framed around what I believe is a lie, and that is that the baby in the womb is nothing more than cells, not Bible, I mean all the terminology thrown around.
And it goes back to this idea that if you dehumanize something and you take it away from the reality of life, then you can either devalue it or you don't have to deal with it.
That's what the left does a lot of times.
They will devalue something, they'll take it out of the mainstream, they take it Out of context, so they want to change the wording to make it fit.
This is why this abortion debate has always, to me, been more about misinformation than it has information.
And if you look at it in the previous 50 years of this debate, the whole idea of abortion and it being something that could be done, medical procedure, you heard all the sterile terms about it, Began to erode in the American conscience as things like ultrasounds and sonograms.
These things began to grow and people began to see literally, you know, these babies in the womb with fully formed features, fully formed hands, fully formed face, everything else.
So really the idea of what you have to do from a pro-life standpoint is simply give the truth of what is actually there.
And as many of us have always said, God will take care of the rest.
This goes back though, however, to an information ministry.
If you can control the narrative, you control the battle.
If you can control the terms, you can control the contract.
If you can control the framing of an issue, then you're going to control the issue.
Whether you are right or not, You're going to be able to do that.
So one of the things I wanted to do today is not only to talk about the Supreme Court issue, which I believe really more than we've talked about it was put out there.
Matt Whittaker and I talked about it last week, is this idea that it's out there to maybe push the Envelope in getting one of those five justices to actually switch their opinion and go with Justice Roberts, it appears, maybe in some kind of a strange concurrent opinion that really wouldn't do away with Roe, maybe hold up Dobbs.
I mean, it's just out there a little bit.
What we're seeing right now is a firestorm, though, across the country, because this is really an interesting issue.
When you get to the truth of the information, let's talk about this, because I'm I want to do a little bit deeper dive today on this disinformation governing board that came out of the Homeland Security.
We're going to talk a little bit about that compared to the 1984 ministries of George Orwell.
But it starts off here.
We might as well start with a real topic because the real topic is the disinformation that is often put out about abortion, that it's not a baby, it's not a Bible thing, it's not a living thing.
And the truth of the matter is, an abortion proponents who want to, or are in favor of abortion, don't want to deal with, is that it is living, that it is a life, and no matter what you call it, it is living.
And so what you they've been trying to determine through their definitions is how can we dehumanize that life to where it doesn't matter what you do with it and prioritizing the life of the mother, say, or prioritizing the life of the living.
But many of them have a trouble because they're willing to do abortions up until the very time of birth in which the limit is about, you know, just a few, a small space between being inside the womb and outside the womb in which supposedly all a small space between being inside the womb and outside the womb in which supposedly all of
So it's this misinformation, this disinformation campaign that science has been proven all along that goes back to the heart of what we're seeing in these adjustments that they're trying to push to say, let's keep this.
We know it's wrong.
We know it's bad, but we're going to keep part of it.
Why does this really matter?
Well, let's dig into this today.
As we dig into this, if you don't have the history here, it's interesting that the Department of Homeland Security just a couple of weeks ago put out what they're calling a disinformation governance board.
Overarching thought here is what they try to make everybody believe, and not very well, especially with Nina Jankiewicz, who is actually the one that they put in charge of this.
Mary Poppins of disinformation, as she liked to call herself.
But let me just frankly say, again, we'll deal with Ms. Jankiewicz in a minute.
She has been one of the proponents of the lie of Russian disinformation.
She has put out disinformation saying that the Hunter Biden laptop was merely a Trump campaign illusion or something dealing with Trump.
It wasn't really real.
It's sort of hard for me to see how this person now is gonna be the minister of truth, supposedly, of this disinformation board, when they don't know how to tell the truth themselves.
And this is, we're gonna get into this further.
Now, the official thing is, is that for the most part, this was to combat the disinformation spread at the board.
Now, this is what they're saying.
That, oh, well, we wanna make sure people understand who are coming here that this is not true, they can't just get in.
And again, they're trying to put a pretty face on it, but this is what bureaucracies do.
This is what folks on the left do, is they're trying to control the narrative at the border, which, by the way, has led me and many others to believe that Secretary Mayorkas ought to retire or be impeached one or the other, whichever one he wants to do, quit or be impeached, because his main job is to protect the homeland security, and the very idea of that is controlling the southern border.
And through the Biden administration and Secretary Mayorkas, they have allowed over 2 million Illegal immigrants to come into this country just in the last 15 months.
Now, you didn't hear that number wrong.
If you're listening along or you're watching here on the Doug Collins podcast, this is one of the reasons why I want you to subscribe to this podcast, share this podcast, get it to friends, get it out there, because I want you to understand what's happening on the border.
The mainstream media is not telling you about it.
You can only hear it on places like here and other outlets.
The border is essentially open.
I have spoken with Border Patrol agents.
I have spoken with supervisors.
I have heard from the front lines that they are demoralized.
They cannot do their job.
And without help of the wall and other issues that I have, that what they do, quote, catch coming through, whether it be drugs or people or others, they know that they're just being distracted while many, many more others are coming across at different points in the border.
And without the manpower, without the determination to keep people out of our southern border, then this is...
Is it going to continue to be a problem?
Why do I bring that up?
Because the left will not talk about it.
It's a disinformation campaign going on.
Oh, it's not...
They either just ignore it or they don't talk about it.
Or in Secretary Marquez's case, he complains about it being a catastrophe or a problem...
In private, but publicly saying, oh no, we've got it all under control and everything's okay.
Secretary Marcus, you can't have it both ways.
It is either a true concern or it's not.
You can't say that in private, oh, this is very much of a concern, and then in public when you're lying to the American people about the fact that the southern border is a problem.
This is where this board didn't riminate.
This is the department.
Now listen to me.
This is the department in which this information board, this ministry of truth, as we're going to call it throughout this podcast, is actually originating from.
So you have Secretary Mayorkas who won't come clean in all fairness about what's going on in the border.
He won't come clean about what they're not doing, what they are doing.
And now he's trying to put a truth board, if you would, to give out proper information as they're saying it to others.
It just really leads to the question is, who's going to determine truth?
Is somebody actually going to take Secretary of America's?
And say, Secretary, that's not true what you're saying.
That it is not all okay on the border.
That the processes are working on the border.
It's not.
So is it simply going to be something to downplay the importance of what's going on in the border from the fact that illegals are walking across the border every day?
Or is it going to be, you know, and to make the left argument, the Biden administration's argument, that all is okay.
We're not putting these people on planes and sending them all over the country.
We've lost track of most of them.
They don't say that.
So you have to then begin to believe that they're putting this board up for anybody who tells the quote truth about this.
And here becomes the crux question of a disinformation governance board.
What is the determiner and who is the determiner of truth?
Now, for many of us who have been in elected office and many of us who have dealt with the press, this idea of what is truth is becoming more and more abstract.
Unfortunately, truth is truth, but we're not reporting on it.
We've seen it in the CDC. We've seen it in the original reports from the World Health Organization and others about COVID, in which people have been given information that, you know, CDC itself one day early in the pandemic said, nope, masks do not work, not going to help in dealing with the The coronavirus.
He said it wasn't going to work.
And then just a matter of a couple months later, oh, it definitely works and everybody's got to wear one.
And it becomes just part of the liberal badge of honor to wear a mask everywhere you go.
And they're still out there shedding this information.
What is amazing is you have things like the Met Gala, other things where it's okay and required for the help To actually wear masks, those who are seating people, serving people, and security on people, but the members, the people who are coming don't have to wear masks.
Again, this is where the disinformation is out there.
It's amazing for me that Anthony Fauci also said, hey, I'm not gonna go to the White House Correspondents' Dinner because it's a super spreader event, but yet went to many homes and many other parties in which there was a lot of people around, guess what, without masks.
He's having his picture taken without a mask.
Again, they want you to believe one thing to control you while at the same point giving out disinformation.
So my question would be to the new Nina Jenkins, who is the head of this, the Mary Poppins of disinformation, if you would, is what is the real answer here?
Is Fauci, would he be banned under your version of what is truth?
Would these issues that we're talking pop up on immigration?
Again, who are we trying to claim the narrative with?
Are we trying to claim the narrative of the Biden administration or what is subjective truth?
And this is the problem that we have come up with.
What bothers me even more is that Secretary Marcus seemed to do little to nothing to either vet this board or to vet Janquits or anything else coming in.
He was just asked and we...
As you may have heard, Secretary was at a Senate hearing.
Senator Kennedy asked him had he had checked out any of the TikTok videos of Dana Jenkins, the new head of this Difference Information Board, Governor's Board.
And here's the Secretary of...
Of Homeland Security saying, no, I didn't look at their TikTok videos.
In other words, the vetting for people nowadays is any normal company and even smaller jobs, they look at people's social media accounts.
Are you telling me that for a board called the Disinformation Governance Board, this Ministry of Truth as we're talking about, the person who's going to head it up, they didn't bother to look at what this person had put out on social media to sort of see what their public opinions were?
Again, mind-blowing as this goes on.
So, again, as we look at this, you know, this is, by the way, Nina James is also another one who believed the Steele dossier was fact, and it helped spread and propagate the rumor of the Steele dossier, long deposed as not being a factual document,
not being anything, but yet was used over We're good to go.
Homeland Security would not have looked or his team would not have looked into the social media background of somebody that they're now putting out there saying that is okay and the highest qualified to deal with this information.
Well, maybe she's qualified for dealing with this information because she's good at putting it out.
She's good at putting this information out there.
And if that's the key, then, hey, she's your person to do it.
The problem we're going to get into...
And this is where I want to frame this.
And then we're going to look at, you know, really how Orwellian is this?
You've had a lot of Orwellian references here recently to this ministry of truth is the real arbiter of what is truth.
Now, I started the podcast off talking about the Supreme Court and talking about Roe v.
Wade and abortion and how really the more information that comes out, the more that people are actually able to see what is going on in an abortion, the more public opinion is changing.
We've seen that And consistently over the 50 years that the Roe v.
Wade decision has been in place, the more people knew about pregnancy, the more people knew about what was going on in a pregnancy, the less likely they were to support abortion, especially supporting abortion in any shape, manner, and consistency of a later term abortion.
So, again, if you're pro-life and you put out a pro-life statement, would that be considered under the Biden administration?
Would that be considered a lie to them?
And if they consider it a lie, then it's not truth?
Or is it just something, a truth that they don't want to deal with?
It is sort of also amazing to me that it was all of these things that was said about Donald Trump are actually coming true under Trump.
The Biden administration, and that being, you know, the crackdown on what is truth as we see this disinformation governance board, as we see the spin that continues to come from the department heads and the administration.
The very things, can you have imagined if Donald Trump had actually been the one in his administration, came up with this decision to move forward with the disinformation governance board?
You wouldn't hear the end of it.
And now you went, since the White House dropped this out in sort of the Friday trash with nobody looking, When they put it out there, none of the mainstream media is following up on this.
None of them are giving the reality of what this could be and not just simply from the innocuous description that Homeland Security is giving for it now, but on what it could become as we go forward.
Again, you know, we talk about abortion.
We talk about immigration.
You know, what about in political ads, political events, political discourse?
You know, is this going to be an arbiter of truth saying that we believe that truth is on the liberal side, not the conservative side?
Or flip it around.
This should not be in anywhere close to a political debate because, you know, who's going to be the arbiter of it's a...
That's the democratic principle or that's a liberal principle and it's false because we're conservative.
Again, it goes back to this arbiter of truth.
Why does this matter so much and why do we keep hearing So much about George Orwell in 1984. Well, the first part about it is basically the slogans in the public faces of government, Big Brother, of course, who is out of public view, being the one that hides behind the scenes.
There were four ministries in Oceana, which is the setting for this in 1984.
First, the Ministry of Peace, and the primary aim in this is, supports the Oceana's principle of perpetual war.
Now let's think about this for a moment.
This is something we as Americans have had to deal with up close and personal for the last 20 plus years.
I was seeing in this constant state of what we think of as perpetual war.
Again, some things are worth fighting for, When you're attacked, when you have to go in, you need to go exact what you need to do and then get out.
The problem is we've been at worn out for well over 20 years.
You've got the Ukraine-Russia struggle now, and you have a lot who want to dig us deeper into that situation as we go forward.
Instead of using the soft power of diplomacy and economics, they're looking to use hard power of military and military equipment To go in and force the Ukrainian regime or democracy strengthening on the Ukrainian regime, while at the same point containing or putting in their place the Russian government and the Russian army.
What has been interesting about this one is, though, is once this discussion of Ukraine being more Western democratized, coming into NATO, EU, and all this, along when...
We're not going to allow this.
This is right on our border.
This has a huge stake in our history as a country.
Ukraine is tied together.
All that was ignored because there was this liberal belief that let's just continue to push ahead And it won't matter because in the end of the day, Russia probably will not do anything.
Well, they did do something.
And now you've got NATO, you've got the rest of the world who have been pushing Ukraine further and further into their modeling of a democratic tradition of other countries is now having to face a real-life shooting war with Russia.
And the best that they can get is from these countries who were pushing them toward this conflict is they're sending weapons and they're sending their prayers and saying, hey, we're going to send you what you can.
Go fight for yourself.
Again, this Ministry of Peace concept does come up.
That's the first of the ministries under Big Brother and Oceana.
The second was the Ministry of Plenty, which rations and controls food, goods, domestic production.
It claims to do things like raising standard of living.
If you read the book, even during times when it's not, it reduces.
In fact, it keeps people warning the government.
Okay, this is an understanding right now.
If you look at this moving forward, there was a very large discussion in this country last year on the need for another COVID stimulus package.
This was one of the first things that was taken up by Joe Biden.
The left, of course, now flush with power with the presidency, the House, and the Senate said, hey, we've got to get more money out there.
They had their own liberal advisors saying, you do this, you're gonna push the economy into an inflationary status that is gonna be untenable, which then will precipitate the rise of interest rates, which at the same point between the inflationary and the rise of interest rates, the slowing of the which at the same point between the inflationary and the rise of interest rates, the slowing of the economy, a stagflation possibly coming on, or even as the worst case out scenario in a Guess what?
Biden administration didn't care.
They didn't listen.
In fact, they actually made fun of these advisors, some of which actually helped him get elected.
They made fun of them saying, this will not happen.
These policies are designed to grow our economy and not deal with an inflationary burden.
Guess what?
They were wrong.
And then, the reason I bring this up is not to point out necessarily past failings.
I bring this up because you're still hearing in Congress that what we need now is more money put in the system.
No, we don't.
If we continue to put money in the system, Financial Times of London just recently said that Powell at the Fed chair ought to be honest with the American people about what these rate hikes will do and where they're heading with them.
He cannot sugarcoat the fact that there may be some rough economic times ahead in the United States and the world, but by not telling them, simply raising rates is not the best way to handle it.
Financial Times makes this very clear.
Well, the question here, if you look at this second ministry of plenty, is the controlling of foods and goods.
What did Joe Biden say earlier this year, just a month ago, is that there will be food rationing, that there will be food shortages.
Why?
They were trying to blame it on, you know, the world situation, Putin invading Ukraine, whatever you want to make up this week.
That's what they were wanting to blame it on.
And you start hearing the rumors of, will there be rationing of food?
Will there be shortages of food?
Fertilizer price has gone so high.
You see all of these things.
And the Ministry of Plenty runs the state and controls and coordinates the rationing of food, goods, and domestic production.
So again, they're controlling more and more.
I bring this up because if the government Under Joe Biden continues a reckless spending policy from the federal government level, then we're digging in for a long inflationary status and one in which will be very painful to get out of.
And with Joe Biden himself saying, hey, these foods are going to be affected by this and that there'll be food shortages, you're feeding into this narrative of we need to trust the government because the government will be the one who is able to come in and bail us out here.
Again, for all of us freedom-loving-minded, conservative-minded people, this is not what we believe in.
We believe a limited government form and a very much of a free market system that will allow people to do what they need to do and grow their businesses in the way that they need to grow them without being interfered in a harsh way by the government putting its finger on the scale and in turn pushing people toward What would be viewed as help or salvation from the government.
So you got the Ministry of Peace, Perpetual War, Ministry of Plenty, controls the food, goods and production.
The Ministry of Truth, this is the one that we've compared this to, controls the information, news, entertainment, education and the arts.
If you want to control a generation, if you want to control, then it starts in kindergarten and pre-kindergarten and it moves to their educational career.
Why?
Because that's the most impressionable time.
Think about this.
Many of you today can, especially if you're my generation, I'm 55. I grew up in PBS early on, Sesame Street just getting started, The Electric Company, all of these shows.
And that's where I can still remember the count and counting backwards.
One, two.
I mean, this is where I learned to count.
You also learned who were friends and not to make fun of each other and to lift up each other.
We've considered, you know, seeing this through entertainment over years on social causes, whether it be race relations, whether it be, you know, smoking.
I remember when I first started watching movies, and remembering them was in the 1970s and 80s, and there were cigarettes all over the place.
And then there became a big push to say cigarettes were bad for you and what do we see in our entertainment?
They're all gone.
You don't see a cigarette for almost 25 years.
In fact, when you saw a cigarette in a movie, you were concerned because you hadn't seen one in so long.
Now you're starting to see a resurgence of cigarettes and other items back into movies.
Again, it's just when you're the ministry of truth and you control news entertainment and education, the arts, you then can move the generation and you do so with a soft power, if you would, that is not looked at as overt, that is not looked at as punishing, that is not looked at as something that would scare people, but you're just encouraging it.
You're showing these situations in a different light.
You can see it in our commercials.
You can see it in who's represented in those commercials, what type of families are represented in those commercials.
This is all about taking the disinformation that the government wants to put out to the people And using all of the outlets to do it, news, entertainment, education, the arts, and the Ministry of Truth was in charge of that.
In fact, the protagonist in 1984, Winston Smith, works in the records department.
His job was rectifying, or going back basically and changing up the records to correspond with Big Brother's latest announcements on what they wanted the party or the people to believe.
So the Ministry of Truth, and this goes back to where we have started today with abortion, where we started with this board that Mayorkas has put together and the Department of Homeland Security, to simply say that when they control the tools of your thought, when it comes to news, when it comes to entertainment, the arts, and education, you can really change the whole rudder of a nation.
I believe it was Reagan who said that we're always one generation away from...
Problems in one generation of losing our freedoms.
This is, again, where we've seen this in the liberalization of our education.
We've seen it when the left is caught on this.
They have gotten very sensitive, whether you see it at school board meetings, teachers meetings, the ideas and things that are being pushed on to children in our education system.
Why is it being pushed in our education system?
Why?
Because that is when the children are most vulnerable, most willing to learn.
And most willing to be accepting of what adults and others give them without critically questioning or critically denying or accepting what is being told of them.
So when you look at these three, we've got one more left, these ministries are in essence disinformation of themselves.
The Ministry of Peace is there to promote the perpetual war.
The Ministry of Plenty is there to ration and take food and goods and domestic production.
The Ministry of Truth is there to spread the word of Big Brother.
And spread it into the proper pronouncements of what Big Brother has said is right today.
Again, it goes back to that biblical add to mission to me that they all did what was right in their own eyes.
And the ministry of truth is what allows that to happen.
It's what allows that to take off.
It's what allows that to grow.
Because if the government is controlling the levers of these institutions, then we are going to only understand and hear what they have.
You've seen this used effectively in movies in the last 40 years, especially dealing with race relations.
You can go back at a time in which African American leads, African American even supporting cast were all cast in many times stereotypical roles.
We started seeing that change out of the 70s into the 80s with The Cosby Show, A Different World and all these others.
Shows coming out in which the characters were African American and stable families and wealthy upper middle class families, you begin to see the change in perception that was being brought forward in a positive way that all of us are equal and that race should not be an inhibitor to success and to happiness and to wealth.
We see this coming along.
We've seen it done in many other ways.
But if you can control the news, the entertainment, the production of education and the arts, then you can train and train a generation however you wanted to see them fit.
Now, the other one is Ministry of Love.
Ministry of Love is one of your law and order, if you would.
It's the ones that sort of monitor the people.
Again, you have never thought this big brother knows, big brother is watching a society that has now developed in the United States in such a freedom-loving, independently diverse society.
We're now seeing this more and more into what we do and more and more into how it all breaks down.
And this Ministry of Love, this one was one that Orwell thought was the worst of the ministries, if you listen to his commentaries on this book.
These were the thought police.
This is why I've always cringed when we have the, quote, hate crimes legislation in which you're enhancing penalties based on a thought.
And you see this problem here to keep order among the people.
The Ministry of Love was the one that monitors, arrests, and takes care of those who descend from Big Brother, descend from the government, and move forward.
So in looking at that...
Can we get to an understanding of why people are bringing these 1984 references up?
Well, I think I've just sort of laid this out here for you.
The ministries of truth, the ministry of love, the ministry of plenty, the ministry of peace, all found in the Orwellian books of 1984 are the very things that we're starting to see.
Now, I am not a conspiracy theorist.
I'm simply laying out what we have seen in literature, learning from the past and history to see where we're at today and why so many people are concerned that where we are today is leading us to a dark place that we don't want to be in which truth is only in the beholder of the government and the institutions that hold the keys to power, that the keys to power learning from the past and history to see where we're at today and why so many people are concerned that where we are today is leading You don't look at this.
Then look at it simply from the digestion of, as we say here, the ministry of love who's monitoring people and that if you control in the ministry of truth, the education system, then you're able to put into the ideology, into the kids that you are teaching, which grows up a generation who are willing to not question which grows up a generation who are willing to not question authority or will believe whatever authority tells
So, you know, look, I wanted to do that quick little dive into sidetracking and say, this is why you're hearing 1984. This is why George Orwell's books are selling again.
This is why, you know, folks, as far up as the...
Kevin McCarthy, the minority leader in the House, the leader of the Republicans, you're hearing it all over, and you're even hearing some on the left who are saying, why did we need to go here with this disinformation governance board, especially when it was not put out with any rhyme, reason, and thought that we needed the government to step in and look at these issues.
Now, again, make your own determination here, but these are the kind of things that we raise up, not to say as conspiracies, we just see them as fact.
Again, what is the arbiter of truth here?
The arbiter of truth is whoever determines what is real and what is not real.
I want to bring this up because in this election year, you're going to be hearing a lot of things.
The Biden administration is wanting you to believe that the economy is good.
They're wanting you to believe that the programs that they've put in place, whether it be green energy or stimulus spending or maybe even getting rid of student loan debt, are all the best ideas, the best plans in order to make sure that America is as best it can be.
The problem is that their plans that we've seen over the last 14 months, 15 months, And are continuing in the future are their version of what they believe is best and they do not want to see dissent in that because then people will question what they're doing.
This is why anytime we get close to what would be considered a ministry of truth, anytime we get close to seeing a government that would be the arbiter of what is right and what is wrong, and being able to take a major platform, whether it be news or whether it be entertainment or whether it be education, even the arts, and then weave that narrative into those underlying pinnings of these societal norms and values, then you're able to control where this society is going.
This is There's always been the discussion with the left in wanting to control the narrative.
If you control the narrative, you control the thought.
What do we do?
Well, now's the time to step up.
Now's the time to say, hey, look, even if this was meant for good, if you even give the benefit of the doubt that this disinformation governance board was out there to actually make something better, then you've got to look at the slippery slope in which you're on.
And that slippery slope in which you're on is, is will they stick to the quote script of just dealing maybe with the border or disinformation to those coming, you know, being fed to those who are coming to the border?
Or will it then begin to take on the fact that if I said that the border is open and the border is not being protected as it should, will I be held as or shown to be someone who is giving out quote disinformation?
It's amazing what we're seeing now that we didn't know two years ago with COVID that was forced upon us as a people are now coming back and saying, well, you know, it didn't really work out that way.
You know, looking at the age grouping, looking at the shots, looking at everything else.
The question always will bring up in itself is what is truth and what is not?
That's as simple as I can get it here on the Doug Collins podcast.
I want you to understand that this is why many people are up in arms about this different situation.
Disinformation Governance Board and why Nina Jenkins, who comes up with a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious hints and rhymes at what she views as disinformation.
And it's interesting that always seems to be conservatives that she goes after.
Now, whether you agree or disagree with some of these conservatives like Giuliani and others, but she always seems to go after...
The things that are coming up from the right is different information.
If it comes from the left, it's okay, and she would promote it, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story from the left, being from the Trump team, being the Steele dossier, which she purported, the Russian false collusion narrative, which she supported.
I mean, and just looking at these different issues of taking history and taking the facts and then spinning them into a political narrative.
So folks, I'm going to keep up with this.
I'm not going to spend a lot more time here today on it, but I wanted you to be aware of why people are talking about this Diff's Information and Governance Board, why it resembles very much the George Orwellian 1984 prototype of controlling minds and thoughts and And remember, we can break this down even further, but it's who is controlling.
This is why it's so important for people at all levels to get involved, whether it be at school board level, county commission level, these lowest levels where you can actually affect change in what is going on at our schools and what is being taught to our children.
Then we understand that the truth is out there for people to research, find out, And then be able to articulate their point of view without the government saying, this is what we believe and this is why we believe it.
When government is in control of what is right and wrong, the American people or any people ought to be very afraid.
That is why when Mayorkas just glibly plays off this information board, glibly plays off the idea of who's the arbiter of truth, and then put someone there who obviously has a very strained relationship with disinformation herself, Why would we not worry about it?
And that's my thoughts for today.
That's what I believe.
But before we get going today on this different information board, another disinformation person that I always like to go to is, and we're now having another edition of I'm Done With You here on the Doug Collins Show.
You know, right after the Supreme Court draft opinion was leaked, The left went into hysterics, you know, and saying everything is just going to be wrong and the world is ending.
And, you know, if this is struck down, then you're going to have all these other things struck down.
And never let a good false narrative mess you up.
And that would be into Representative Eric Swalwell from California, the newest recipient that I'm done with the award.
Now, this is not new for Eric Swalwell to send out information that is not exactly true.
This information he sent out on tweet the other day was, well, if you believe, is to the tweet that says, the Republicans won't stop with banning abortion.
They want to ban interracial marriage.
Nobody said that.
The rule itself, Alito, in the opinion, even knocked that argument down.
But it didn't stop Eric Swalwell from increasing his Twitter following and increasing the misinformation about what was going on out there.
I guess, like I said, would Janquist say this was misinformation or would she just let it pass since it's on the left?
But again, I think it was actually funny that several sent back the quote, maybe what needs to be banned is from members of Congress actually fraternizing with Chinese spies.
Maybe that should be the one that should be banned, and that's what actually should be banned.
But this is not Eric Swalwell's first chance at this.
When we were doing the impeachment investigations, they were making the claim that the Supposedly withheld money from Ukraine was causing people to die unnecessarily because they were not getting the resources they need.
We made it a very point.
Even the mainstream news media said, this is not true.
This money was proactive.
It was not for current time.
And we said, this is not true.
People are not dying and being injured because of this money not going.
Guess who jumped to the conclusion that, nope, that's all wrong.
It makes good.
It sells the point of impeachment.
I'm gonna keep it out there, Eric Swalwell.
After I explained this as much as I possibly could, he comes out and says it again.
Again, you can't fix those who want to spread disinformation for political gain.
So with that, don't spread anymore, but he's going to if you want to see what disinformation looks like many times.
And in the political spin of disinformation, you go to Representative Eric Swalwell's Twitter site and you will find it.
And for that, Eric Swalwell is the newest member of I'm Done With You.
And with that, that's the end of this Doug Collins podcast.
