The DHS was always going to become a Stasi type group. After 9/11, it was basically announced as the domestic arm of the CIA.
Openly announcing a speech police is a pretty bold move, or should be. Apparently, this is intended to be a direct response to Elon Musk.
Frankly, these people already have the ability to spy on you and then do you up for fake crimes – so this might be intended more as a signal to the people on the left worried about Musk taking over Twitter that they have no intention of allowing people to get away with thinking their own thoughts.
RT:
President Joe Biden’s administration is expanding the US Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) purview to include fighting speech that the government deems to be “disinformation.”
Plans for the new initiative were revealed on Wednesday, when DHS chief Alejandro Mayorkas said in a congressional hearing that his department has created a “disinformation governance board.” The board will be headed by Nina Jankowicz, whose resume includes stints advising the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry and overseeing the Russia and Belarus programs at the National Democratic Institute.
“Cat’s out of the bag,” Jankowicz said in a Twitter post. “Here’s what I’ve been up to the past two months, and why I’ve been a bit quiet on here.”
Yes, she’s likely Jewish. Maybe not. Could just be a Polish person.
But the more interesting thing is the link to the Ukraine.

Honored to be serving in the Biden Administration @DHSgov and helping shape our counter-disinformation efforts. https://t.co/uN20vl7qqV pic.twitter.com/JEn4FqLdck

How is everything that happens in this country somehow linked back to the Ukraine? It’s like the center of the Black Cube.
Although Mayorkas unveiled the new entity in response to a question about disinformation being used to sway elections, the new board reportedly will focus on countering “misinformation related to homeland security, focused specifically on irregular migration and Russia.”
The administration announced its disinformation push just two days after billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk reached an agreement to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Musk has vowed to restore freedom of speech on the platform, which has banned prominent conservative voices and was accused of influencing the 2020 presidential election by suppressing dissemination of news on an alleged Biden influence-peddling scandal.
…
Ironically, Jankowicz promoted false information about the alleged Biden scandal weeks before the 2020 election, saying the New York Post’s suppressed story had been branded a “Russian influence op” by former intelligence officials. She also called the report a “Trump campaign product” and warned that supporters of President Donald Trump would show up at the polls with weapons to intimidate voters. The emails on which the Biden story was based were later verified by other major media outlets, including the New York Times and the Washington Post.
Responding to news of Musk’s Twitter takeover on Monday, Jankowicz said, “I shudder to think about if free speech absolutists were taking over more platforms, what that would look like for the marginalized communities, which are already shouldering disproportionate amounts of this abuse.”

Last December, Jankowicz called Musk an “online abuser” and said the best antidote to such behavior is “to deny them influence and notoriety.” She also has defended regulation of speech, saying, “The ‘free speech vs censorship’ framing is a false dichotomy.”
Haha.
“Orwellian” is simply not strong enough at this point. Claiming that there is a false dichotomy between free speech and censorship is like claiming there is a false dichotomy between life and death. They can say “safety” as many times as they want. It’s still censorship, and the fact that the government is now hiring unhinged women for official censorship boards is beyond the pale.
This was supposed to be America.
Censorship is already something I’ve spent five lonely years of my life writing about.
I’m not going to go over that now.
If you want to see the word “safety” used over and over again, you can check this woman’s Twitter.
She just published a book called “How to be a Woman Online” that is apparently some kind of guide to getting men banned from things so you can be “safe.”
Men "burst violently into your mentions and your life like the Kool-aid man, demanding your attention, hawking opinions that they believe are unarguably, manifestly correct and indispensable."

This attitude of “the internet is my own private house and I make the rules here” is ubiquitous among leftists.
Reminder, given today's news/people who believe abuse can be "ignored": "Women are expected to stoically endure astronomical levels of abuse to simply participate in conversations while navigating a set of social mores and boundaries that don’t exist for men." (1/) pic.twitter.com/U5WjKVFOHj

Why should women and marginalized groups be forced to silently endure this treatment to do their jobs and contribute to public discourse?
I won't ignore it. And you shouldn't either. (3/3) pic.twitter.com/d33yMOQfg6

Remember – these people didn’t used to be on the internet. The left and women generally are always behind on technological advancements. We all came on here as kids, playing video games and exploring the infinite universe inside of these tubes. Then these people came into our place and started crowding us out.
A woman’s entire world is about herself and her ego. There is no reason for them to be on the internet. Name even one good thing a woman has ever done on the internet.
Nina Jankowitz being hired by the Biden people is part of this process of women pretending to be men no longer taking that seriously, and just being annoying, nagging ninnies, openly. Jankowitz is literally tumblr.
We were blowing the whistle about blue-haired lunatics on tumblr 10 years ago, and people dismissed it as some fringe thing. Now they’re running government thought-control boards to force their beliefs on everyone.
It was some fringe thing. But so was the NSDAP about a decade before the July 1932 federal election.
I compare tumbler to Nazism only to make the point: very small groups of extremely enthusiastic people can do a lot in a society that doesn’t have a clear direction in a very short period of time. That’s why the Alt-Right was crushed so completely with such extreme force.
What are They Going to Do?
I have no idea what the plan here is, but it sure does look like they’re planning on putting on hazmat suits and driving around in vans at 3 AM and pulling people out of their beds and throwing them in the back of unmarked vans. That’s sort of the obvious conclusion to draw here.
I’ve told you for a long time now: things are going to get very weird, and though it is happening in slow motion to those of us watching it, people are going to realize it all of a sudden. China and Russia saying “no” on the world stage is going to lead to a very serious tantrum at home.
The Evil Empire is stumbling like a brutal drunk at the local saloon. They’ve got a gun they’ve waving around at the patrons, who are thinking about rushing them. If they get beat up at the bar, they’re going to go home and beat their wife and kids.
