Biden’s New ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ to Chill Free Speech

The Biden administration named Nina Jankowicz, who previously claimed Hunter Biden’s laptop was a ‘Russian influence op,’ as the head of the board of the Department of Homeland Security’s new Disinformation Governance Board. She was quoted saying, “I shudder to think about if free speech absolutists took over more platforms, what would that look like for the marginalized communities…which are already shouldering…disproportionate amounts of this abuse,” showing that she is against free speech. Critics oppose the government being involved in ‘disinformation’ programs. The DailyMail wrote that the new agency will have no power to crack down on disinformation but will instead try to combat it by throwing money at what it sees as problems.

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. Nina Jankowicz will head the board as executive director. She previously was a disinformation fellow at the Wilson Center, advised the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry as part of the Fulbright Public Policy Fellowship and oversaw Russia and Belarus programs at the National Democratic Institute.

Why would a DHS program focus solely on “irregular migration and Russia”? Are there no other threats to the homeland about which someone might mislead us? Or are these just the most politically dangerous narratives for the Left to lose control over?

DHS secretary Alejandro Mayorkas revealed the creation of the new Ministry on Wednesday when speaking with the House Appropriations DHS Subcommittee, in a clip posted by the Post Millenial. When asked what the DHS is doing about an assertion that African Americans and Spanish-speaking Americans are being “heavily targeted” for disinformation, Mayorkas mentioned:

Our Undersecretary for Policy, Rob Silvers, is co-chair with our Principle Deputy General Council, Jennifer Daskal, in leading a just recently constituÿyted misinformation, disinformation governance board.

The goal is to bring the resources of the department together to address this threat. I just read a very interesting study that underscores the importance of the point that you make, of the spread of mis and disinformation in minority communities specifically, and we are focused on that …

 

Nina Jankowicz, who will head the board as executive director, has an extensive, swampy background in the area of “disinformation” as well as the geopolitical interface between Russia and Europe. Her bio for Syracuse University, where she is an adjunct professor, reads in part:

Jankowicz’s expertise spans the public, private and academic sectors. She has advised governments, international organizations and tech companies; testified before the United States Congress and European Parliament; and led accessible, actionable research about the effects of disinformation on women, minorities, democratic activists and freedom of expression around the world.

Jankowicz has extensive media experience, with writing published in many major American newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Atlantic. She is a regular guest on major radio and television programs such as the PBS Newshour, CNN’s Fareed Zakaria GPS and Amanpour, the BBC World Service, and NPR’s All Things Considered.

Clearly, the Left is very worried about black and Hispanic Americans hearing anything contrary to the party line.

Additionally, states the bio, “In 2016-17, [Jankowicz] advised the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry on disinformation and strategic communications under the auspices of a Fulbright-Clinton Public Policy Fellowship. Prior to her Fulbright grant, she managed democracy assistance programs to Russia and Belarus at the National Democratic Institute.” Just the person to make sure only approved information reaches Americans, as the administration fumbles us closer to war every day while assuring us that news about Hunter’s Ukrainian lucre is merely Russian misinformation.

It’s our very own real-life 1984-style Ministry of Truth! This is absolutely pathetic. Rather than allowing these truth police have their desired chilling effect on our free speech by intimidation, we must go in the opposite direction and redouble our efforts to get the word out even stronger. As the old saying goes, the tighter they squeeze us, the more we slip through their fingers.
