The Smith Act was used throughout the 1950s to prosecute members of the Communist Party - U.S.A. In 1951, the United States Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the Smith Act in Dennis v. United States.  

Prosecutions under the Smith Act continued until a series of U.S. Supreme Court decisions in 1957 reversed a number of convictions under the Act as being unconstitutional. The law has been amended several times.

Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012 112th Congress (2011-2012) 


This jackal 0bama signed the 2012 act which took out the Smith-Mundt Act Of 1947, which made it illegal for the Government to spread propaganda to manipulate public opinion to line up with government mandates.


0bama took all of us for chumps by signing the 2012 amendment to the Smith Mundt Act of 1947.  Many are becoming aware of the treachery 0bama cooked up and passed to neuter the Smith Mundt Act of 1947.  But God Almighty is the 1 factor 0bama didn't count on.


Ashlii Babbit got murdered by the cabal because of the one Executive Order  0bama pushed through in 2012 to neuter the Smith Mundt Act.

    Obama did not sign a law allowing propaganda in the US. ... The amendment did not repeal the Smith-Mundt Act, but rather lifted some restrictions on the domestic dissemination of government-funded media.

    The change essentially eased restrictions for Americans who want to access government-funded media content, allowing media produced by the U.S. Agency for Global Media, such as the Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, to be made available to Americans “upon request.” ...

    Under the new law, it is still against the law for government-funded media to create programming and market their content to U.S. audiences.
