Congress stripped the Smith–Mundt Act of all meaningful restrictions on the domestic dissemination of government-produced programming, imparting the State Department and the BBG with enormous power to anonymously disseminate their programming within the United States.
The original Smith Mundt Act RESTRICTED the US Government from propagandizing the American People. The MODERNIZATION of the Smith Mundt Act in 2013, signed by Obama, REMOVED that RESTRICTION.
I don't need to stretch my mind too hard to see that the US Government has used propaganda on the American People by LYING about the 2020 Election, LYING about where COVID came from, LYING about the "safe and effective" vaxxines.
The propaganda is all around us. It's government-sponsored and controlled. The DOJ/CIA/FBI has worked hand in hand with the MSM and BigTech to control and censor nearly all relevant information over the years. The weaponization of our government went into overdrive during Obama's reign and it has never slowed down.
Okay, thank you. Please share your sauce if you don't mind. I appreciate it.

I hope you read it and understand it.
Thank you. I am pretty sure I understand it.
Then you understand that the law doesn’t grant the government powers, it restricts them, and protective restrictions were removed.
Modernization doesn’t allow anything as you originally stated.
