Howe graduate, Mayorof Arlington, to be honored with ‘Jeff Williams Plaza’ Elon Musk buys Twitter to save free speech and days later the Biden regime announces the “Ministry of Truth.” George Orwell would be so proud. The Disinformation Governance Board is shockingly a part of the Department Homeland Security which is a law enforcement agency with a stockpile of ammunition. It really is telling for those who still adhere by The Constitution as the rule of law. It’s just further evidence that the founding document that outlines our freedoms are disregarded by those currently in D.C. We could point to unconstitutional mask mandates, unconstitutional closing of businesses, and unconstitutional vaccine mandates. This publication has not gone along with any of it, and we will continue to stand up and tell the truth, despite the new “Laity of Prevaricates” office. We will be speaking to the Grayson County Conservatives on June 14 about the matter of owning a publication that publishes truth versus narratives. There shouldn’t be “conservative” publications and “liberal” publications. There should just be factual information and that’s where we hang our hat. We published the Hunter laptop story two years ago and ran a headline that stated the Nov. 2020 election could be fraudulent. But if you publish factual information, it’s called disinformation by big media and their followers. Will the Ministry of Truth read this?
