    Watch Rand Paul silence Secretary Mayorkas in congress. Quotes from Senator Paul: "If you can't agree to that [what disinformation is--e.g. the Steele dossier], how are we ever going to come to an agreement on what [disinformation is] so that you can police it on social media?" "I think you've got no idea what disinformation is." "Do you know who the greatest propagator of disinformation in the history of the world is? The U.S. government." See video at link.

    Part of the oath taken as a federal law enforcement officer includes the phrase to “defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Our country faces mortal threats from nation states like China, Russia, and Iran to name the most prominent. However, we face mortal domestic threats, not from white supremacists, but from government officials, carrying forward tyrannical schemes in the name of public health and safety. As an FBI agent, I swore an oath to the Constitution and to protect it, not an administration, from all those who would align themselves against it. In...

    Jankowicz wears many leftist hats, and is wrong in all of them. Within the space of a week, Nina Jankowicz has gone from being an unknown to a media wunderkind, featured in countless media accounts. But it’s fair to say the coverage has been less than fawning. Referring to her Disinformation Governance Board, to which she had been appointed to head, Jankowicz claimed in a tweet that “one of the key reasons the Board was established, is to maintain the Dept's committment [sic] to protecting free speech, privacy, civil rights, & civil liberties.” (And why the Orwellian name, Disinformation Governance...

    WASHINGTON - The Biden administration’s new Disinformation Governance Board may be illegal and subject to a vote in Congress, a Republican senator is warning Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. In a letter to Mayorkas Monday, Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) outlined a legal critique that could set in motion the board’s undoing - as the White House sought to tamp down public concern about the Big Brother-like panel and its controversial head, who has her own past of spreading disinformation. Hagerty wrote that the board may violate the Antideficiency Act, which says the executive branch can’t spend money unless Congress authorizes...

    Following the announcement of his "Disinformation Governance Board," Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas found himself scrambling to spin the hideous new speech enforcer, claiming it was not as Orwellian as any normal person would think. Speaking with Fox News, Sunday he told Bret Baier: "This is a working group that takes best practices to make sure that, in addressing disinformation that presents a threat to the homeland, our work does not infringe on free speech, does not infringe on civil rights, civil liberties," he continued. "It's not about speech, it's about the connectivity to violence. SNIP Not one word of...

    VIDEOSix times in 95 seconds! That was how many times Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas robotically repeated "Best Practices" in order to assure the public that the new Ministry Of Truth will be harmless and not infringe on their free speech rights. You just know that they found a political consultant who probably poll tested a bunch of soothing (and fooling) phrases before settling upon "Best Practices." At the rate that Mayorkas repeated that phrase it came out to a recitation of one "Best Practices" every 16 seconds.Exit question: Will the Ministry Of Truth label this video as...

    WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Department of Homeland Security has formed the Disinformation Governance Board to bravely combat incorrect opinions on the internet. According to sources, the board's Executive Director Nina Jankowicz has appointed Hunter Biden to sit on the board for a salary of $50,000 per month. "We are proud to welcome Hunter to our Ministry of Tr-- um, our Disinformation Governance Board," said Jankowicz. "As the victim of a Russian disinformation campaign that claimed his laptop held evidence of horrific sexual crimes and international corruption resulting in tens of millions of dollars being funneled to the Biden family, he is uniquely...

    Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas hit the Sunday shows trying to sell the Disinformation Governance Board that he’s in charge of, which the Biden Administration announced this week, following the announcement that Elon Musk would be buying Twitter.The announcement about the Board has created such a furor in response, Mayorkas has been delegated to clean it up and describe it as something that we need not fear. It’s a good thing, you see, according to Mayorkas, despite what you might think about the government determining what constitutes “disinformation.”Mayorkas hit CNN’s “State of the Union” with Dana Bash,” NBC’s...

    So we’ve got ourselves a Ministry of Truth, and America’s new Dominatrix of Disinformation is a lunatic named Nina Jankowicz. For just a moment, let’s forget about the terrifying notion of the federal government, especially a government run by extremist Democrats and a corrupt Deep State, creating a “Disinformation Governance Board.” Let’s forget that the very same people behind the “Disinformation Governance Board” are the very same people behind the Russia Collusion Hoax, the Global Warming Hoax, the fairy tale about how men can magically transform into women, and that chemically castrating nine-year-olds is a good thing.

    All about stopping criticism of disastrous Joe Biden. Exhilarated after retaking both houses of Congress and the presidency, the Democrats are behaving as though they have carte blanche to destroy all vestiges of their political opposition by whatever means necessary. Progressive liberals want to completely eradicate anyone with an incompatible vision. “Democrats are literally beginning to sound like ISIS,” tweeted conservative commentator Candace Owens. “‘Recite the Quran or get your head chopped off, now!’ Absolutely psychopathic,” Owens said. Conservative positions are attacked as disinformation and the purveyors are canceled. If you suggest that global warming is a hoax, you are...

    JERUSALEM—Religious experts have begun voicing concerns that a local carpenter’s disinformation is spreading among Israelites most susceptible to unapproved ideas. “Visit your nearest synagogue for the latest information on how to obey God. Listen to the experts!” A contingent of authorities in Jewish law spoke out against the carpenter’s simple teaching about loving God and your neighbor. “Follow the data—we need tithes, loopholes, and ever-changing rules, not repentant hearts!” The usually divided Pharisees, Sadducees, and Scribes showed solidarity in fact-checking Jesus’s teaching. “We rate Jesus’s teaching as ‘Needs Context,’" said a spokesman for the group. Eyewitnesses have confirmed that a...

    Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the Disinformation Governance Board would not infringe on free speech or monitor Americans. Anchor Dana Bash said, “Let’s talk about what your department is calling, The Disinformation Governance Board that you unveiled this week. Republicans are calling it Orwellian and comparing it to the ministry of truth in the novel 1984. Can you clarify what exactly is this? What exactly will this disinformation governance board do? Will it monitor American citizens? ”

    Will the new Disinformation Governance Board be forced to label mockery of it as disinformation? They might have to because at this point there is such widespread mocking of that new section of the Department of Homeland to Security that it could well be laughed out of existence. One measure of how popular the mockery of what is being called the updated "Ministry Of Truth" is that even Politico is laughing at it. On Friday, Politico's senior media writer, Jack Shafer, demonstrated his libertarian streak by ripping that new squad to shreds in "Biden’s Hopeless Disinformation Police."

    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...

    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...

    Nina Jankowicz is the Czar of Biden's newly minted Disinformation Governance Board. The 33-year-old comes equipped with a vastly oversized ego and little else. No one thinks more of her than does she.She claims that she wants to protect free speech. On the other hand, she opposes free speech.Jankowicz also suggested last week that she opposes The First Amendment because she thinks it is bad for 'marginalized communities' and called Elon Musk a 'free speech absolutist' because he wants to make Twitter more open to all voices.Se echoed the falsehood that the Hunter laptop was Russian disinformationWhen questioned, she said...

    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...
