Turns out the new head of the Department of Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board has been peddling some disinformation of her own.
Nina Jankowicz, the latest Biden busybody tasked with policing our speech and monitoring our mental hygiene, has something of a history of promoting false and baseless narratives—especially the most notorious recent case of American misinformation, the so-called “Trump-Russia Collusion” claim, a Clinton campaign op that was foisted on the American people for almost the entirety of Trump’s presidency.
Fortunately, the Washington Examiner has provided us with a list of some of Jankowicz’s most egregious disinformation blunders, including parroting the official (and false) narrative about the Hunter Biden laptop, citing Christopher Steele as an expert on disinformation, making misleading claims about how his dossier was funded, and criticizing the notion that COVID-19 emerged from a Wuhan lab—a service that earned her favorable citations in the CCP’s propaganda organ China Daily.
Needless to say, winning the approval of the Chinese Communist Party isn’t exactly a good way to establish one’s anti-disinformation bona fides.
Meanwhile, the Examiner has learned that Jankowicz often shared false claims about Trump-Russia collusion.
For one thing, in a 2016 tweet, she linked to an article from the Clinton campaign (a big no-no for a disinformation expert), which speaks about “5 questions every voter should ask about Trump’s bizarre relationship with Russia.”

It gets better. On the eve of the 2016 election, Jankowicz wrote on her blog The Wiczipedia Weekly: “What started months ago as me making jokes about Donald Trump’s ‘bromance’ with Putin has actually become an existential threat to our country. Many thousands of words have been written about Trump’s connections to the Russian netherworld…God willing, we never have to talk about him again (until Putin grants him Russian citizenship, like he just did for Steven Seagal).”
Unfortunately for Jankowicz, Trump was elected, and she’s talked about virtually nothing else ever since. Meanwhile, the Mueller investigation, after a years-long investigation, “did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”
Then, in December of 2016, Jankowicz tweeted “Trump is Pinocchio, but what if Putin is Geppetto? American people deserve to know,” with a link to a Politico story that falsely smeared Trump as a Putin puppet.

Jankowicz kept it up in 2017, enthusiastically agreeing with Michael McFaul, Obama’s ambassador to Russia, that Adam Schiff had given a “terrific statement” in Congress. Schiff’s terrific statement involved him reading allegations from Christopher Steele’s discredited dossier into the congressional record.
“Agree,” Jankowicz tweeted, “and more importantly—explains why Congressional investigation into Trump-Russia ties is an integral part of our democracy.” Whenever “our democracy” comes up in a conversation, it’s a safe bet that whatever comes next won’t be ours and it won’t be democratic.

And it’s not the only time Jankowicz has cited the false Steele dossier to buttress her specious claims. In her 2020 book “How to Lose the Information War: Russia, Fake News, and the Future of Conflict,” she mentions the dossier as proving Russia had somehow rigged the election in favor of Trump.
“The extent of Russian influence over the U.S. election—and perhaps even the Trump campaign itself—was becoming clearer and more worrisome with each day that passed in the new young year,” she writes. “Just a week earlier, BuzzFeed published the explosive and as-of-yet-unverified ‘Steele dossier’…that alleged the president-elect and his team had deep ties to Russian intelligence services.”
So it begs the question—who is going to “fact check” the copious falsehoods promulgated by our newly-minted disinformation chief?

Looks like the link to Hillary’s 5 questions……is long gone.
Page does not exist….
It’s not about Miss Nina.
I think she’s just a placeholder to get the whole thing in place, and they probably chose a goofball so nobody would take it as seriously, or as much of a threat.
But what it does is tie big tech through the White House to an enforcement arm.
Obama’s former Deputy Director of Information Technology went to work for the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and through Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), funneled over $400 million into 2020 electioneering.
Who is this person? Well, he is Austin Lin.
And where is he now?
He became the Biden-Harris Transition Team’s Director of Information Technology and Security, immediately after departing his role at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. From the Transition Team, Lin entered the Biden White House as a Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of Technology, serving under fellow Chan Zuckerberg alumnus David Recordon.
So the big tech guys who took advantage of unlawful election law changes in the 2020 election to sway the election for Biden, and used their ties to big tech to brand any opposition to it as misinformation/disinformation, now work in the White House.
The White House feeds fact-checking directives straight to big tech, and now Homeland Security can use the Governance Board to officially stamp it, and enforce or investigate those who the fact-checking is applied to.
This is exactly how Democracy dies…and the representative part of a Representative Republic….is bypassed.
Here’s my take on there new so called stopping truth , you won’t be able to make any claims of voter’s fraud , that’s misinformation , even if it’s true . The lies we all are forced to absorbed as truth .
Why do you suppose these far left activist types are being appointed to these positions? Here is one reason. These unelected people have considerable power in our government today. Consider Fauci. When the Repubs. take back control of the house and senate these appointed people will fight to keep the balance of power toward the left as much as possible.
She should fit right in with all the rest of biden’s diversity check boxes, much like psaki’s replacement, Just lie like Psaki and all’s well. If I were Kirby, I’d be ashamed to be associated with that disgusting bunch. PLEASE DO NOT LET HER SING ANY MORE. MY EARS ARE STILL RINGING.
Just more proof of how much of an expert on disinformation she really is.
I WONDER how th Doj would react if someone doxed the queen of smear and protestors showed up outside her house. What would Brandon have to say
F that crazy BITTCH
Correct. Libs putting the propagandist in charge of information. Only in America is this impossible……on paper only of course….that paper being the US constitution.
