Disinformation is deliberately spreading lies. It’s the military use of words and ideas to fool an enemy. Disinformation was important enough to the Soviets to make it a serious investment during the Cold War.
Disinformation is completely different when the Biden Administration or their mouthpieces in the media puff themselves up to their most pompous selves and use it with their most serious, gravest voices. What the Left calls disinformation is known as the truth, reality, facts, or observable events to everyone who isn’t an obedient, observant Woke Prole.
The Hunter Biden laptop was called disinformation in 2020. The laptop and its incriminating information are the real deal.
Criticisms of the Covid vaccine, mandated lockdowns, closures, masking, and other theatrical pandemic protocols were called disinformation. Yet, they’re backed by facts and proven by rational empiricism. The claims to contrary, like the Big Pharma jab absolutely protects one from getting the Covid-19 virus, are proven falsehoods. Furthermore, another mainstream lie was masks don’t protect a person or stop the spread. The government, media, and businesses denounced the truth as medical disinformation.
Criticisms of flagrant anomalies in the 2020 election are called disinformation, while fabrications about Russian interference in the 2016 election are taken as gospel truth.
The pattern of being completely backwards and wrong should be evident to the casual observer.
So, when the Biden Crime Syndicate in power hires Nina Jankowicz, complete with her tik-tok video singing a disinformation mantra, what should be an amusing irony – as the perp playing the cop – becomes an Orwellian drama.
What will the “Disinformation Governance Board” actually do? Translate Jankowicz’s Congressional testimony to fund “a robust public media” and participate in a global effort to combat disinformation. What is she really going to do – and with how much money?
Politico reported the Board would focus specifically on “irregular immigration and Russia.” The Secretary of Homeland Defense said the office would identify “best practices” for operators?
Best practices for what? Identifying disinforation?
Does that mean reports of the illegal alien immigration invasion will be called disinformation – so the mainstream and social media can suppress the truth before the 2022 election, or what?
Is the misinformation about Russia have anything to do with the Russian-speaking majorities in Crimea and Eastern Oblasts of Ukraine wanting the self-determination to choose Russia over Ukraine?
Putting the Board in the Department of Homeland Defense changes the subject from fake news that could be handled by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to national defense against terrorism. Nina Jankowicz says there’s “domestic disinformation” and disinformation is a threat to democracy.
Hard stop.
In her testimony in Oct 2020, Jankowicz applauded Twitter’s assault on free speech. Twitter’s cull of conservatives and opposing stories was a true domestic threat to democracy.
The backwards thinking expressed by Jankowicz about free speech and a free press is worthy of the double-think and newspeak from Orwell’s Ministry of Truth. The resemblance is so uncanny its amusing.
Mocking the Disinformation Governance Board should focus on exposing every particular of everything they do. Make them quantify their mischief. Let them be embarrassed by their own words, actions, and spending in the public square.
What legal authority resides in the U.S. Code to arm this Board against any American citizen? Will it use surrogates in the media, across governments, and businesses to silence dissent?
It’s important to put everything about the Board in the public square because that’s precisely where the Left can’t compete. Their arguments fail. Their accusations flounder. Their outrage falls flat. Their ideas and words lack logic, fact, scholarship, science, history, and wisdom.
The Left can’t compete. The only way the Left can win is by shutting down any and all opposition to their Narrative.
The Disinformation Governance Board shows the Left’s desperation and yet how serious they are to harm their opponents.

No legal authority to start this board. No legal authority to use this when the First Amendment says all that needs to be said about speech.
Yet, what have we put our feet down against this administration, so far? It appears that everything the administration does, it gets a lot of complaining and moaning, but no substantive pushback.
That push back should have begun a long time ago.
The left will never stop until the boot gets put on their necks. Currently, it is on ours.
Thank you. Citizens push back by speaking, writing, and working to get representatives elected. The Congress can push back “hugely” when the Rs are a majority. They can use the power of the purse and administrative oversight. But will they? They Establishment Rs failed miserably in 2017 – and deserved to lose the majority.
There is a growing undercurrent of anger against this leftist onslaught. We will make some gains in Congress, but the problem is when the gains cause the electorate to wait and live on unenforced expectations, only to have those expectations disappoint. Then the cynicism takes over, which is when the left starts back and gains just enough to build their phony government into the fascist machine, once again.
We keep repeating history. That needs to be put to a stop.
And it doesn’t matter how it happens. What does matter is that when one way fails, the other measure destroys almost as much as it fixes, but until we try hard enough to prevail, and let the other side know that we are filled with resolve, and leave nothing off the table, we will not prevail.
If we, as a country, want to survive, we have to back up our words with deeds, not leave our fate to hope and dreams. That always lets us down.
The left believes we are not willing to fight for the Constitution and the way of life it offers. As long as they believe that, we have nothing left to hold on to. What we are seeing was brought on by our complacency, believing evil does not exist. This is our fault. That has to change.
Concur. I’ve been writing that we need a “Revolutionary Season” of about 12 years of electing people to power who don’t want to be career politicians, but are conservative zealots who will make change real and set it in institutional and legal concrete. Thanks.
Twelve years would just be a start on the foundation, but a good start. If only, we had enough people who could keep that train of thought for that length of time…
Agreed. The problem is making sure our firebrand reformers stay firebrands rather than settling in and getting comfortable like George Nethercutt (RINO-WA) did.
