DHS Abolishes Orwellian Disinformation Governance Board After MRC Exposed Soros Connection

The Department of Homeland Security has officially terminated its Orwellian plans for a Disinformation Governance Board. The action follows MRC Free Speech America, in conjunction with MRC Business, exposing the DGB’s leftist bias — including its connections to liberal billionaire George Soros.

The DHS announced in an Aug. 24 press release that Homeland Security Secretary Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas terminated the Disinformation Governance Board and rescinded its charter Thursday after a recommendation from the Homeland Security Advisory Council. This development follows the DGB pausing operations after mass public backlash.

MRC Business was the first to expose how the DGB’s former co-chair, DHS Principal Deputy General Counsel Jennifer Daskal, previously worked as a fellow for Soros’ Open Society Institute “working on issues related to privacy and law enforcement access to data across borders.” Daskal was also founding editor of the Just Security blog. Soros’s Open Society Foundations gave at least $675,000 to Just Security between 2017 and 2019.

I thought the Orwellian DHS disinformation function is being shut down only to have it moved to the State Department, which is known to be a filthy septic system for money laundering, weapons trafficking, and other secret ops, i.e. 'The Hillary Years'.

Anybody think that the DGB has really been disestablished?

Odds are that it continues to function buried deep within the dystopian bowels of George Bush's DHS...
It has 22 different federal departments and agencies and 240,000 employees...

You can rest assured that the DGB, now called the ZYX, is safely and permanently functioning in the DHS bowels...
Communists never give up a good idea...
