Propaganda Fail

It would be one thing if this were just some rando saying something stupid on social media. This is an official account from the DHS, which has become a veritable propaganda mill. It’s sickening. Here’s an idea for a reform. Pass a law that says government agencies are not allowed to post anything but information and specific instructions on social media. No “inspirational” messages, boosterism, bullshit PR. Nothing. It will likely inhibit some good stuff, but it’s a price worth paying to ensure that this grotesque misuse of government resources to promote a strictly partisan agenda never happens again.
