I'm sorry, but who said anything about censorship? I haven't read anything indicating that people would be censored but maybe I missed that part.
How else is the disinformation governance board gonna counter Russian propaganda? Publish fact checking articles or op-eds and hope that that's gonna convince the type of people who already distrust their own government so much that they'd rather believe Russian propaganda in the first place?

He has...several times. Hell, I think you even RIDICULED him for telling them not to come (because you didn't think he actually meant it or something along those lines).
It doesn't matter though because, you guessed it, they don't speak fucking English lmao.
Oh come on, that's such a lame excuse. The U.S. government has a federal budget of 4.4 billion dollars per year. Do you seriously argue that it would be impossible for them to record Biden's appeal to migrants not to come, add Spanish subtitles or live interpreting to it and disseminate the clip on Latin American TV, radio stations and social media?
I rightfully ridiculed Biden for the brazen duplicity in his messaging. During the Democratic primary, he endorsed various policies which would increase or create pull factors for illegal immigration. During the general election campaign, Biden kept blasting Trump over his allegedly racist, inhumane and cruel border policies. After being sworn in, he rescinded the big majority of Trump's border EOs, including the highly successful "Remain in Mexico"-policy. A couple of months later, when confronted with the predictable surge at the southern border, the Biden admin began backpedaling and urged migrants not to come. This was, of course, just an attempt at controlling the PR damage; even at this point, the Biden admin kept refusing to meaningfully adjust its underlying policies.
Biden and his admin having paid some belated lip service to the idea of "please don't come" does not undo three years of (wider-)open-borders messaging and policies. This has created the fertile ground on which the lies of the coyotes are built. People in Central America only find tales about "just coming to America and being showered in government money" believable in the first place because that's the impression Democrats created with their rhetoric about a "humane", "welcoming" and "fundamentally different from Trump" migration policy. But instead of tackling this root cause of the recent surge, Biden and his admin instead set up a "disinformation board" to treat the symptoms (since that allows them to avoid confronting the open borders activists in their own party).
