RMG Flashback: Breaking News NDAA & Freedom of Speech 2016-12-27
There's a new Red Scare sweeping the land folks; a neo-McCarthyism that's taken hold of those in government - or rather a desire to scapegoat another country in light of a tremendous Dem loss last November. This RMG broadcast from December of 2016 explains the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act that was part of the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that President Obama signed into law on Christmas Eve of last year. It's allows a kind of Ministry
