Hi, I'm Mike Papantonio and this is America's Lawyer. The Biden administration is creating a new office at the Department of Homeland Security to monitor misinformation and the impacts of this program could shut down independent media outlets for good. We'll bring you the details. Gas prices, well, they're still going through the roof, but so are the profits that executives are being paid. These large oil companies, they, they're taking advantage of this situation. We'll tell you how these companies have pulled a massive con on the American public. And Republicans are fighting to stop president Biden from getting rid of the student loan debt. We'll tell you why that fight matters to you. All that and more it's all coming up. Don't go anywhere. America's Lawyer starts right now.

The Department of Homeland Security is about to start cracking down on what they consider to be misinformation, but this program could easily be abused to shut down dissent. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins joins me to talk about this and many other issues. Farron I, I, I think you have covered this whole misinformation issue more than most progressives and you've done a great job understanding. First of all, you and I, I think you, you know, when we first started looking at, at this, I concluded it's not constitutional. I, I really do believe somebody's gonna test it. It's not, it's not constitutional because you can't create something that interferes with the vibrant free speech that we're all entitled to. Now, there are exceptions. Don't get me wrong. There are exceptions and the exceptions fall with what we call the police power, health, safety, and welfare. So they're trying to hang it on national security and we're gonna do this because it, when we start looking at this, my prediction is it's gonna fail. Somebody's gonna test this, but take it from there.

It, it, it's a very stupid idea. I, I think is probably the nicest way I can say this. You know, is misinformation a huge problem? Absolutely it is. And we know that. We've known that. But you cannot have the government come in and say, okay, we're now in the business of telling you what's real and what's not, what is allowed and what isn't. You know, that's kind of the slippery slope that everybody had worried about, you know, with, with online, you know, bans and things like that. This is the culmination of it and this of course is a massive problem. The government cannot and should not tell us these things. And the thing I wanna point out is each side, you know, left and right, both of them think, we're the good guys.

Mm.

Well guess what, your good guys, whichever side you're on, they're not gonna be in charge of this program.

That's right.

All the time. Marjorie Taylor Greene even came out and said this past weekend.

I can't wait.

Oh, imagine what conservatives could do with this.

Yes.

And it's probably the same thing, the powers that'll be abused with this DHS.

Well, let, let me be a little small here. I gotta be. The woman they've put in charge. This Nina Jankowicz is a complete nut case. I mean, I, she's been called an clown and everything else and, and you know what? She kind of deserves it. Go back and just take a look at some of the videos.
