Which useful idiot thought such a clearly partisan hack should be Biden’s ‘disinformation czar’?

NY Post ^ | 4/28/2022 | Post Editorial Board

Insane as it is that the Department of Homeland Security has created a Disinformation Governance Board, it’s utter madness that the woman running it is Nina Jankowicz, who’s a veteran disinfo spreader.

She embraced and promoted the bogus Clinton-campaign-created Trump-Russia dossier. And she waged war on The Post’s true and accurate reporting of Hunter Biden’s laptop.

As our first laptop stories ran, The Associated Press reported: “Disinformation experts say there are multiple red flags that raise doubts about their authenticity, including questions about whether the laptop actually belongs to Hunter Biden, said Nina Jankowicz.”

She also told the AP: “We should view it as a Trump campaign product.”

Very factual article, but rhetorical style makes it fit the category "editorial" instead of news.

I don’t care who is picked, because it shouldn’t be a thing at all.

“... it shouldn’t be a thing at all.”

I can’t even imagine they way The Constitution can be twisted to support a Department of Censorship.

Which useful idiot thought we needed a ‘disinformation czar’ in the first place?

From MSN.com:

Niina Jankowicz appears in an official portrait she shared to Twitter on Wednesday. Jankowicz has written about Russian disinformation and advised the Ukrainian government.

Nina Jankowicz is President Joe Biden’s pick to serve as executive director of the Department of Homeland Security’s new Disinformation Governance Board—and her appointment has already met with some controversy.

Nina Jankowicz has been a global fellow at the nonpartisan Wilson Center and an author whose research has focused on disinformation as well as Russia and the treatment of women online.

According to the Wilson Center, she studies “the intersection of democracy and technology in Central and Eastern Europe” and she was an adviser on strategic communications to the government of Ukraine during her time as a Fulbright-Clinton Public Policy Fellowship.

The Left doesn’t even care at this point. It’s a full court press...

[DoughtyOne]

Orwellian as it can be...

This has no place in our nation, period!

The intent is to Nationalize speech. You either have a
right or you don’t.

They make no pretense of the Constitution of the United
States even existing.

Would like to know what the SCOTUS would think of this,
but these days I have no idea what their opinions would
be.

33 year old girl. That is who will determine what speech is allowed. She was 11 years old on 9/11. She was barely enough to vote for Obama in her first election. The senile fool thinks THAT is who should judge (censor) free speech.
A chick steeped in cancel culture.

Biden’s presidency is a clown-car, she’s just latest clown.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

AFAIK they have not explained how "fighting" disinformation would actually work. Does it mean:

1) Continuing the lying and censorship efforts they are already doing, but with a bigger budget?

2) Punishing those whom they consider to be "spreading disinformation?"

The same sort who put in an FDR hack to make sure the FCC put pro-FDR administrative types into the radio networks.

FDR believed "in the public interest" meant "in the interest of the FDR administration".

By Jehovah! Their Naming committee has outdone George Orwell and Oceanian’s “Truth Ministry”.

[The_Media_never_lie]

This is really the stupidest and most dangerous stunt in years!

[EEGator]

A lot of people are already really “testy” between lockdowns, telling parents they aren’t in charge of their children, mandatory vaccines, inflation, fake racist BS, defund the police, crime, and now this.

I stated a while ago, I think their intention is to purposefully get some people to snap. You know, a dozen or so McVeighs seeking payback. Michael Douglas in Falling Down but worse.

>> it shouldn’t be a thing at all.

And we citizens should see to it — somehow.
