Dakota Beacon

I have a confession to make, I wasn't surprised when I heard President Biden announcing his disinformation bureau, I saw it happen right here in North Dakota by the NDGOP!

Below is the wording from the NDGOP web site regarding anyone violating the "Code of Conduct".

NDGOP Code of Conduct  (Link)

Perceived violations of this Code of Conduct should be reported to the Chairman and the Executive Director so they are aware of conduct that could be detrimental to the success of the North Dakota Republican Party.

Do you understand what Perceived means?

Do you see the risk of Perceived?

Who determines What Truth is?

Whose Perception of Truth will be determined?

Webster dictionary definition:

1a : to attain awareness or understanding of. b : to regard as being such was perceived as a loser. 2 : to become aware of through the senses especially : see, observe.

The above “Code of Conduct” along with instructions to report based on your perceived violations of the “Code of Conduct”…

The irony…

You can’t make this stuff up…

Have you seen the new committee under the Department of Homeland Security?

Big Brother has gone main stream not only in the NDGOP but now our wise President is doing the same thing!

As we move into the Primary elections in June and you are flooded with mailings from Republican lead PAC's attacking district endorsed candidates or supporting NON-Endorsed candidates...

MAY I SUGGEST YOU REPORT THESE ACTS TO THE AUTHORITIES?

Chairman - Perrie Schafer

New York Post April 28, 2022 Link

“President Biden came under fire Thursday for the creation of a “dystopian” disinformation bureau created under his Homeland Security department, which critics are blasting as just a way for the government to police free speech online. 

Conservatives slammed the Department of Homeland Security’s Orwellian new “Disinformation Governance Board” – with some suggesting the timing is convenient given Elon Musk vowed to make Twitter a free speech haven after his $44 billion takeover of the social media platform notorious for selectively censoring right-leaning points of view. 

Missouri Sen Josh Hawley, “Called the new board a “disgrace” that was designed to “monitor all Americans’ speech.” 

“Surely, no American administration would ever use the power of government to sit in judgement on the First Amendment speech of its own citizens. Sadly, I was mistaken,” Hawley wrote. 

“Rather than protecting our border or the American homeland, you have chosen to make policing Americans’ speech your priority.”

Biden selected Nina Jankowicz to lead the Department of Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board.Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert accused Democrats of spending “the last weeks planting the seeds for the back-up plan in case the Twitter deal actually happened.”

She, too, called the news “dystopian” and said the left “can’t afford to let the truth be anything but what they say.”

The hashtag “Ministry of Truth” was also trending on Twitter as critics compared the new board to George Orwell’s “1984” novel. 

“Adolf Hitler had a Ministry of Truth. Joseph Goebbels had a Ministry of Truth. Joseph Stalin had a Ministry of Truth. Joseph Biden has a Ministry of Truth,” tweeted Errol Webber, GOP congressional candidate in California. 

“The spread of disinformation can affect border security, Americans’ safety during disasters, and public trust in our democratic institutions,” the department said in a statement.

DHS said that the board will “protect privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties” as part of its duties.
