Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | "This Is the Point Where We Have to Draw the Line."A lot of people on the right -- or rather, a lot of people on the pseudoright, the Conservative, Inc. grifter right -- are not taking the new "Disinformation Governance Board," incorporated as a branch of the armed state security bureaucracy the DHS, seriously. I'm glad to see that Tucker Carlson is taking it seriously. He's right. This cannot be allowed to happen. Bitch McConnell cannot be allowed to sleepwalk us through this. I don't care if his corporate sponsors are all okay with a new Ministry of Truth because they all think the Workerlings should be forced to live their lives by the Corporate Handbook of Permissible Conduct and Speech 24/7 anyway.
Nina JankowiczAs the new Disinformation Czarina, she should of course be eager to apologize for her previous disinformation. Do you think she will be? I don't. As of May of 2021, she was still pushing the "laptop is Russian Disinformation" hoax:
Remember: She's an expert in disinformation, with a specialization in Russian disinformation. And just this week: She told NPR she "shudders" at the thought of free speech on social media. And now she's been put in a job where she gets to tell social media to not allow free speech. Ron Johnson has written a letter to DHS asking questions about her past, calling her a "beacon of misinformation online." Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

I saw that Silicon Valley is circling the wagons again and the usual culprits are involved. Apple apps and PayPal are saying that they won't do business with Twitter if they see "hate" speech and the like.
This is conspiring between companies, and a violation of the anti-trust statutes (RICO Act.).

Over 2 months into this war, and still almost no info on condition of Ukrainian forces, losses, positions etc-despite (what seems to be) deluge of granular info from all the OSINTers, analysts etc. And zero curiosity from western media.

++++ This incident tells me all I need to know about Republicans. What should have happened is a disorganized flurry of outrage and furor over this, with lots of messaging and threats and bill introductions, followed by a slowdown while they align and coordinate their positions, followed by an even louder and more active surge of pushback along a unified front. That is what would have happened if the Republicans were actually on the side of the base or of American values. But they're not. They don't believe it and won't do anything to fight for it, not even out of the cynical self-interest of a non-believer who puts it up anyway because he knows he needs to. They don't care about the base or about Americans enough to even fear them and pretend.

Trump can't get back on message like in 2015-2016. He comes off as whining and playing poor me all the damn time. Its fucking pathetic. He needs to bow out (he wont).

She's a liar and a stooge who equates government position with rightness and opposition as evil. She has no moral center and worships Harry Potter enough to have formed a "Wizard Rock" (real thing, look it up) band based on Harry Potter themes, and then write songs about ideological leftism with a Harry Potter bent.
She's a childish, stupid, shallow, ungrounded, G-dless product of Millennial culture and her university, with limitless credulity for and support of state power and an absolute absence of fixed or absolute standards.

__________ No, but they didn't fund the billions of dollars that the Biden junta is using to provide taxpayer-funded goodies (e.g., free cell phones, plane rides to U.S. destinations of their choice, housing, medical care, etc.) for the millions of illegal aliens the junta has invited to flood across our border either. They're using "covid" funds for that. The junta don't need no stinkin' laws, or appropriations, to be passed by congress.

shudder to think about if free speech absolutists were taking over more platforms, what that would look like for the marginalized communities... which are already shouldering... disproportionate amounts of this abuse."
++++ Notice what's missing? It's because of the basic assumption in this argument and every argument like it. What is to stop people - marginalized or not - from reading something, thinking about it, questioning it, and forming an opinion for themselves? Where is the agency? Where is the individual? Where is the choice? Where is the thought? Nowhere. Some people in charge cynically know that they lose when scrutinized, but a lot of them - and I suspect this sniveling ideologue is one of them - done't even understand the question. People have no agency and there is no such thing as an individual or even of thought at all. There is merely a message, the message is truth, and therefore the message must be enforced and controlled - and if you don't accept the message then you're defective and dangerous because you refuse to see the truth.

My wife has a GSD named Xena, a little over a year old now (16 months). So she has a crate inside, she chills there sometime. Well she's started doing this thing where she'll close her crate, then bark at the crate door, then open the crate door and bark again. We couldn't figure out what she was doing or why. We thought she was playing a game. She wasn't. She was communicating with us. When she does that barking and crate door closing/opening...she was ASKING US TO OPEN THE DOOR TO GO OUTSIDE. I was stunned. This...this is a seriously smart dog.
Help. == Hilarious. It could have been worse. She could have just taken a squat on the carpet. That's what "dumb" dogs do. Your dog is trying to communicate via sign language. But with abstraction.

Nina Yankovic is perfect for this job. She is a practiced liar and adept at communicating with the child-like minds of the rainbow appropriating progressive fascists in the Jackass Party.
Other than that, she's a silly bunt, acts like a common whore and is utterly bereft of any sense of credibility - so bereft that even the most obtusely stupid small town patriotic 'muh greatest generation' Democrat voter will finally have the scales burned from their eyes.

While this is about Nina Jankowicz to some degree - and she should be pilloried for her stated lies and driven from public service - we simply cannot let her be the central focus of attention. As bad as she is, she's the distraction. She's the leading cog of the ever-grinding wheel of extreme Statism. The Disinformation Governance Board, or more accurately MinTru, is the embedded threat. So, should Jankowicz be sacrificed on the pyre of public outrage (which is to say she goes but some other more "moderate" titular head is chosen), it means nothing if MinTru survives.

Often if you don't understand someones actions, it is because you are not seeing what they are trying to accomplish. You see the side effects which are a problem as you see them, but are either not important or ignored because of what they seek to accomplish.
So once you figure out that what is going to happen is going to have a bad result, shelve that and find out what they are trying to make happen that makes the damage unimportant.

The first amendment, boiled down to its essentials, is really the right of consciousness, the right of you to be you, to be a free thinking individual who can worship or not, as you see fit, hang out with whom you want (including purveyors of disinformation) and speak your mind. These people seek to curate your inputs so as to limit your outputs. The exact same argument Smith's neighbor made foe newspeak. They want to make dissent from their agenda impossible.
Posted by: Farmer Bob at April 29, 2022 01:07 PM (fj2YZ) It's even more insidious than that. They know there will be MANY people who don't believe it, won't believe, and cannot be convinced by any of their pronouncements. They expect those people to SAY they believe it, even when they don't.

Posted by: Mr Gaga -------------------- Make sure that you know the current laws regarding firearms in those states which is quite picky on AR firearms and magazines. Firearms Owner Protection Act protects you in transit somewhat if you have the ammo and firearm in separate containers that are unable to be accessed during travel easily. Best if locked. Once you take it out of the case or are no longer in the actual process of traveling, then you are fully subject to state and in Illinois and NY case, local laws. NJ, in particular has been known to harass people claiming that FOPA means you cannot stop in NJ even for bathroom, gas, or restaurants, otherwise strict NJ laws apply.

The funny thing is the announcement of the board's creation plays up the "we're trying to fight misinformation being peddled to irregular migrants from human traffickers about the US-Mexican border being open" angle ... I assume on the theory that "even you racist Republicans don't want human traffickers to generate more border crossing business, do ya?" ... but the border IS basically open. And, to the extent it isn't totally open right now, it will be as soon as Myorkas can manage it, so it's not actually the smugglers that are lying about the border being open, it's the board.

Paul Wilson has written several excellent books in his LaNague series including the best one--an Enemy of the State.

I love how Adam Carolla put it:
"The religious right, conservatives, back in the day when I started in the radio 25 years ago, you'd get letters saying he said 'bitch,' or he said 'God damn it,' or he said something. It wasn't about the verbiage, it was about the words. Now, the left doesn't care about any of the language you use but they go after your ideas. They attack ideas. And that's a much more insidious place to be because the language you can clean up... but ideas, especially when you think about what's going on in the COVID era, someone had an idea about it. And they're going after ideas. And that feels much more Orwellian to me." Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at April 29, 2022 01:28 PM (KZzsI) 489

Most of their live action remake stuff has been pretty uniformly awful, and they all make about a billion dollars. The only exception is Tim Burton's Dumbo which was both pretty good and a very thin take on why Disney sucks, which is why Disney let it die horribly at the box office.

A new book from NYT reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns delivers some choice gossip by claiming that Joe Manchin may have come a lot closer to switching parties in early 2021 than he let on. The only thing holding him back, Martin and Burns allege in This Will Not Pass, was Cocaine Mitch McConnell.

It's always interesting, to see people who normally complain about the suppression of free speech suddenly become very much in support of the same when it suits them. But anyway, back to the original topic. Whatever shall we do to force Mitch McConnell to do, well, anything ? Threaten him with losing in 2022 ? The GOP doesn't seem to care. Threaten him with a Trump nomination in 2024 ? Doesn't seem to matter much, they'll rig another election or simply block the man for another four years. I'd truly like to know, what exactly would Tucker Carlson or anyone else suggest as far as drawing this so-called red line ?

JBS was vilified by Bill Buckley, because he was an elitist snob who thought he could say/do anything, no matter how untrue, and conservatives would take it as gospel. Posted by: BurtTC ----------------- I never cared much for Buckley and even less when he started heaving people like Sobran over the side. He was primarily the template for Conservative Inc as an opinion manager and editor. He disliked populism whether from Republicans or from Democrats. His books largely suck as well. There are suggestions that his personal life did not resemble his public persona either. In an era of Trump, he would probably have been unmasked as well.

We are here, because Kate needs to hold onto power and probably is going to reimpose a mask mandate after the elections in November.
Posted by: Kindltot at April 29, 2022 01:48 PM (xhaym) Once the Florida Federal Court Judge ruled that, of course, mask mandates issued by a Federal Agency (the CDC) with no enforcement authority and no Congressional statute sited to enforce, the TSA was forced to acquiesce - sure, some States have statutory authority to uphold masking rules or codes - but the US Government does not, period. Congress has given out none to any agency. NY State has given the counties broad authority to decide how to proceed, and they are doing it that way. I don't think NYS goes back to universal masking.

Posted by: ... ---------------------- You can't kill ideas you should answer right back. Even when Marxism apparently died in the fall of the Sov Union, it came back as rancid as ever. In the Eastern bloc, most of those freed countries went back to the ideas of the West and more freedom despite maximum coercion for decades. So it is for ideas of liberty. Read the Declaration today and it is still as valid a critique as it was in 1776. Ditto for Common Sense. The actors have changed but the game is still the same. In some ways, that is the true history of Great Britain and why the left is trying to extinguish history and people in touch with the founding. Won't work. To sum up, you cannot kill ideas in the long run, history never ends, and there is no science in determinism. Posted by: whig at April 29, 2022 01:57 PM (Iq9dF) 656

Thanks, and please pray for church I serve, if you are a praying person. This is hard for them. They usually stick seminary students in there because it's small and doesn't pay a lot, but I am a "real" pastor-ie finished seminary, been in the ministry for some time, don't have another church to serve and I've served there longer than their most recent past pastors. That's not to say that seminary students can't do well. Of course they can. It's just hard for them to go visit people -because well, they have seminary classes and/or don't live nearby and/or have young children. And apparently, some of the older folk appreciate I'm more theologically conservative than some of their previous seminary student pastors.

Jankowicz is the perfect person for Minister of Truth. She's an ideological lefty Millennial with shallow intellect who perfectly proceeded through the woke, disconnected, rootless bubble. She's a liar and a stooge who equates government position with rightness and opposition as evil. She has no moral center and worships Harry Potter enough to have formed a "Wizard Rock" (real thing, look it up) band based on Harry Potter themes, and then write songs about ideological leftism with a Harry Potter bent.
She's a childish, stupid, shallow, ungrounded, G-dless product of Millennial culture and her university, with limitless credulity for and support of state power and an absolute absence of fixed or absolute standards. There may well be no better possible selection for Minister of Truth. ----- She's also 8 months pregnant, and as we know, Biden government officials need 3 months maternity (mayor pete) so it'll be awhile before she does any harm.
