Karine Flops on New Disinfo Task Force, Kamala Flails on ‘Faith’ and Abortion – Opinion

Kamala Harris received a new charge from the Biden Administration, which sounded worse than a Disinformation Governance Board repackaged. They’re calling it an “internet policy task force,” which was authorized by a memorandum from Joe Biden.

The declared purpose is to protect people in public life from online critics and “disinformation, abuse.” Can we say how much that screams censorship?

This Thursday will be the panel’s first meeting. Within 180 days, it will submit to President Biden a blueprint that “outlin[es] a whole-of-government approach to preventing and addressing technology-facilitated gender-based violence, including concrete actions that executive departments, agencies, and offices have committed to take to implement the Task Force’s recommendations.”

Within a year, the board will issue a report with “additional recommendations and actions” advising broader steps that can be taken by internet platforms, state and local governments and schools, the document says.

Not only are you attempting to control social media content, but also in government and school settings.

The news caused consternation about what the task force was trying to accomplish here. On Friday, media asked Karine Jean-Pierre (White House Press Secretary) what was the situation with this task force. What is the point of policeing speech while violent pro-abortion protesters are attacking pro-life centers, and threatening Supreme Court justices as well as their families?

Jean-Pierre surely was capable of clearing up all the confusion. Well, no, just kidding. When Jean-Pierre was asked, she once again pulled out her staple excuse: I know nothing about what you are asking me, so I can’t give you an answer.

Karine Jean-Pierre couldn’t answer a question about Kamala Harris’ new Online Policy Task Force.

Now, she tells the reporter they’re going to have to ask Kamala’s team. Harris has been acting under a memorandum by Joe Biden. It’s part of the briefing material on the White House briefing site. I’ve read it. Why hasn’t she? Isn’t this her job? At some point, the excuse “I don’t know the subject you’re talking about” wears a bit thin and the reporters are already chomping at the bit over it.

But if any of the media asked Kamala about it, they likely wouldn’t get a much better answer from her. The only good thing about Kamala being tasked with this disinformation force is that it’s the equivalent of sending it off to die, since any assignment she gets never gets done. However, it is important that they are pressed about what’s going on.

While they’re not willing to reveal what this is all about, Kamala was willing to opine on abortion on Friday, telling reporters that she’s “convened faith leaders”–and the Democratic abortion position didn’t mean you were giving up your faith.

“For those of us of faith, I think that we agree…there’s nothing about this issue [of abortion] that will require anyone to abandon their faith,” she argued.

Tell us Rev. Kamala: To which leader of faith were you speaking? Which faith leader agreed with you? Because I don’t know about others, but for sure, there are many faiths that this is very much against, including Catholicism. Where did she become a “faith leader,” telling us what to believe? Don’t tell me what my faith involves, that’s not up to you. I hate killing babies, no matter how much she might try to convince me otherwise.

At this moment, we must be in the Twilight Zone.

Except for the commandment to kill someone. But why get into details?
