The Biden administration has a new Misinformation and Disinformation Governance Board, but you didn’t hear that from any left-leaning media outlets. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the reveal in a reply to a question while speaking to Congress April 27. News outlets considered to be more trustworthy by conservative readers jumped on it – but even now, a few days later, some of the biggest names in news haven’t mentioned it at all. Wonder why?As Liberty Nation’s Mark Angelides pointed out April 28, the head of this new “Ministry of Truth” seems to believe that disinformation is simply whatever...

If Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado has her way, Congress will put an end the Biden administration’s effort to equate the truth with whatever it might want it to be.Earlier this week, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas revealed the existence of the Disinformation Governance Board, according to The Washington Post.“We have just established a mis- and disinformation governance board in the Department of Homeland Security to more effectively combat this threat, not only to election security but to our homeland security,” he said. On top of that, it was revealed that the board is headed by Nina Jankowicz, who...

In his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas revealed a startling, heretofore secret, initiative within his agency to police the online speech of American citizens. Mayorkas, whose infamous abandonment of border security has rendered his official title an oxymoron, divulged (conveniently on the heels of Elon Musk’s planned liberation of Twitter from censorship and in time for deployment during the November 2022 mid-term elections) that DHS had initiated a “Disinformation Governance Board” to be chaired by left wing activist Nina Jankowicz. Jankowicz favors government regulation to rid conservative voices from media and endorses as fact two...

VIDEOWhenever you hear a politician use the term "comprehensive immigration reform," what they really mean is they are pretending to be concerned about the border but their real goal is amnesty. Here we see Deep State (you can hear her bragging about that) Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, who is now desperate to be elected from a new Michigan Congressional District due to redistricting, blowing smoke about the supposed need for "comprehensive immigration reform." Yet not a peep from her or any other politician of her ilk about enforcing EXISTING immigration laws. And, of course, she was OPPOSED to funding the Trump...

News that the Biden administration's Department of Homeland Security had formed a Disinformation Governance Board was met with swift backlash from conservatives and free speech advocates worried about how the board will function and how it comports with the First Amendment. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas mentioned the board Wednesday during a hearing before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, saying his department had just recently constituted the board. But the disinformation entity's name and mission set off red flags over potential free speech violations. "The federal government is supposed to not impede free speech, and that's exactly...

The woman President Joe Biden chose to be the government-sanctioned arbiter of truth believes “there are many non-binary people who give birth” — despite the basic fact that pregnancy is biologically unique to women. The Biden administration appointed Nina Jankowicz as chief of the “Disinformation Governance Board,” which the Department of Homeland Security is setting up to combat “misinformation” online. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas spoke about the “just established” governance board during a congressional hearing Wednesday, arguing it would help reduce domestic threats to the United States. Jankowicz, who is a so-called “disinformation expert” and a fellow for the...

President Joe Biden’s new disinformation chief Nina Jankowicz used TikTok to imitate her male trolls. In a video created on January 25, Jankowicz dressed up and imitated two of her online male critics. Jankowicz made her TikTok video account private after it was featured on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Thursday night, but some videos still exist on her Twitter account. “Women should not be involved in government. They can not be trusted,” she said as she wore a hat and looked into the camera, speaking in a male tone. “The real reason she is angry is no Chads would...

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...

President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has seemingly confirmed plans to siphon healthcare services away from American veterans treated at Veterans Affairs (VA) to illegal aliens arriving at the United States-Mexico border. During a hearing before the House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas confirmed to Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) that the Biden administration is in talks with VA officials to potentially transfer doctors and nurses to the southern border to treat illegal aliens arriving every day in record-breaking numbers. “Is the department planning to reallocate resources, doctors and nurses, from our VA system intended...

On Wednesday, it was announced that the Department of Homeland Security would be launching a "Disinformation Governance Board," which will be headed by executive director Nina Jankowicz. Jankowicz herself though has been revealed to have spread disinformation on a number of topics. In screenshots of old tweets posted to Twitter, she was seen dismissing the Hunter Biden laptop as Russian misinformation, slamming free speech, and bashed Twitter’s decision to stop taking action against 2020 election posts. Jankowicz has on numerous occasions discredited the Hunter Biden laptop story, saying it's a "fairy tale" and disinformation. In one tweet, she said that...

The ink isn’t even dry on Elon Musk’s deal to buy Twitter and make speech free again, and the authoritarians in the Biden administration are nakedly acting to lock down the flow of information. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is creating a new agency called the Disinformation Governance Board.Politico is reporting:DHS is standing up a new Disinformation Governance Board to coordinate countering misinformation related to homeland security, focused specifically on irregular migration and Russia.

The Biden administration is freaking out over the truth being exposed. They are now launching a “Disinformation Governance Board” to go after what they claim is misinformation. The group will be specifically focusing on irregular migration and Russia.

A Washington Post columnist suggested Monday that the magic solution to rampant inflation and supply chain impediments would be to allow more illegal immigrants into the country. Catherine Rampell wrote a piece titled that “Democrats are missing the bigger immigration issue,” noting that “Democrats are terrified that a coming border surge might tank their midterm chances.” She then went on to suggest that problems will occur not with “too many immigrants” but rather “too few.” Rampell claims, without any evidence or authority, that inflation will start to recede if there are more migrants “who can fill critical labor-market shortages.” She...

More details are emerging about the four Secret Service employees entangled in an alleged bribery scheme carried out by two men accused of masquerading as Department of Homeland Security law enforcement agents. An affidavit filed Wednesday night in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. revealed that one of the Secret Service agents involved in the bribery scheme was a special agent assigned to First Lady Jill Biden’s protective detail. Another was a Uniformed Division officer at the White House. RealClearPolitics has learned that another Secret Service special agent involved in the alleged bribery is assigned to President Biden’s detail, those...

The Department of Homeland Security is disseminating a mass migration plan devoid of removal mechanisms to replace the soon-to-end CDC Title 42 emergency order.

As the Biden border crisis rages on, the administration is looking for ways to make it even worse. The next item on the Biden agenda to further destroy America’s border security is to repeal the Trump administration’s Title 42 border restrictions, which prevented so-called asylum seekers from applying for protection within the U.S. With no plan to protect the border, the Biden administration is preparing to end Title 42 while publicly acknowledging the consequences. White House communications director Kate Bedingfield admitted to reporters yesterday; “Title 42 is a public health directive, it is not an immigration or migration enforcement measure,...

Everyone must read this, we have to stand up to this- Mayorkass is bypassing congress and granting citizenship to everyone who crosses into our country illegally. Please read this, as it details his plans to destroy this nation, it can’t be easily undone. “What they’re doing is giving low-level bureaucrats authority equivalent to Congress as a whole to decide how many foreigners should move to the United States and become American citizens,” said Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies. Officials “say it’s streamlining the process, which it is truly not,” Krikorian said. “The goal of the regulation...

More than a dozen House Democrats are urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to address "insider threats to election systems," which they say are posed by candidates who are running to fill local election positions motivated by former President Trump's false claims about the 2020 presidential election. In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland dated Wednesday, the Democratic lawmakers said they are worried that those candidates may attempt to influence the outcomes of future races if they are installed as election officials. "Unfortunately, many of the candidates seeking to fill newly vacated state and local election posts support former...

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a report recommending an increased focus on scanning the social media accounts of its employees in order to detect “extremism.” Among the examples of “extremism” cited by DHS are: a belief that fraud occurred in the 2020 election, and objections to current coronavirus policies. From the DHS report, obtained by Reclaim The Net: A March 2021 unclassified threat assessment prepared by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), Department of Justice, and DHS, noted that domestic violent extremists “who are motivated by a range of ideologies and galvanized by recent political...
