With Disinformation Governance Board under fire, Biden’s handlers call in another disinformation peddler

By

These people can’t get out of their own way. They can search til doomsday for a “disinformation” chief who isn’t a purveyor of “disinformation” himself, and they won’t find one. It’s what they do. And of course they aren’t even really trying to find one, but just to give the appearance of propriety.

“Homeland Security Pick To Clean Up ‘Disinfo Board’ Pushed Disinfo Himself,” by Chuck Ross, Washington Free Beacon, May 5, 2022:

The Biden administration is calling in backup to bail out its Disinformation Governance Board just days after a disastrous launch. Their ringer is a former government official who blamed Russia for the Hunter Biden laptop story.

Department of Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas this week tapped former DHS secretary Michael Chertoff to advise the board. Its executive director, Nina Jankowicz, had come under fire after she asserted the release of Biden’s emails was a “Russian influence op.” Chertoff has made similar claims, arguing after the 2020 election that “human intelligence sources”—referring to Russian spies—likely obtained emails from Hunter Biden’s computer. Chertoff dismissed as “preposterous” the claim that the emails were recovered after Biden abandoned his laptop at a computer repair shop.

Chertoff’s appointment could signal more trouble for the board, which has come under intense scrutiny from Republicans. Critics have dubbed the board the “Ministry of Truth,” a nod to fears that it would enable the government to interfere with a free press. Republicans have criticized Jankowicz’s defense of the Steele dossier, the Democrat-funded opposition research that made false claims of a Trump-Russia collusion.

Mayorkas, citing “confusion” about the board’s role, requested the Homeland Security Advisory Council make recommendations for how his department could “effectively and appropriately address disinformation that poses a threat to the homeland.” He picked Chertoff, an advisory council member, and Washington, D.C., super lawyer Jamie Gorelick, the council’s co-chair, to oversee the initiative.

Two other members of the Homeland Security Advisory Council, former CIA director Leon Panetta and former representative Jane Harman (D., Calif.), also pushed the unfounded claim about Biden’s laptop….

Chertoff claimed in his dismissal of the Biden laptop story that Giuliani had “weaved a kind of preposterous story about getting this from a laptop that was left to be repaired.”

“But it looks like the evidence that’s emerging shows that these purported documents were circulating by the Russians in Ukraine for some period of time. This suggests that this information is not only online but it’s an old-fashioned spy story involving human intelligence sources,” said Chertoff, who served in the George W. Bush administration.

Comments

  1. It’s a revolving door of fools and liars peddling the same nonsense—actually and highly ironically disinformation itself. In fact, arguably the single most egregious piece of disinformation over the past six years or so, though there are many “worthy contenders,” has been the contention that the 2016 Trump campaign colluded with Russia. And made all the worse because it was the Democratic Party which peddled this lie and now it is Democrats who desire to be in charge of “combatting” disinformation.

    Orwellian through and through. Those not seeing this are, at best, fools themselves. Unfortunately, there remain plenty of fools out there. Indeed, I think it a growing number. Hope I’m wrong. Fear I’m right.

    • Fools? Orwellian? Agree completely. However, this fellow Michael Chertoff takes the prize for looking like and sounding like a James Bond villain.

      Chertoff is what is called an evil genius, a master of disinformation himself. He could have been a henchman for Stalin or minion for Goebbels.

  2. It all makes sense once you realize that whatever a Biden administration official says is true is really a lie and what is proclaimed a lie is actually the truth. This is how it works in Bizarro World and that is where we are now.

    • Bizarro World is where we are.

      Maybe we are in one of Dante’s levels of purgatory. Don’t trust any of the clowns. Sure’d like to get out of it at an election portal.

      • I’m afraid it’s a lot harder to exit Bizarro World than it is to enter. It’s like a black hole that is harder to escape the closer you get … and then time itself slows down to almost a complete halt once you cross the event horizon. Oh, that election portal is a long way off and our dilithium crystals can’t take much more, Captain.

        • I like that black hole analogy. That’s where the ass holes are taking us.

        • Holes in their narratives … well … there are so many holes in their narratives that soon, there will be no truth whatsoever.

  3. this entire country has gone down some kind of unintelligence hole.
    Not only this calling whatever they don’t like “false”…but every other bit of society.

    It may be off-topic, but I just read about a *woman* who claims to be *transman* and “married to another *transman* who the first “trans” calls her…she says she’s a he, but I refuse… “her husband.”
    and they are complaining that they are being left out of the “conversation” on the baby-killing possible decision that might be coming in June. they say it will keep them from having surgery usually performed on older women who have medical issues. they say the Court is wronging them. If they were actually male, they wouldn’t have those particular organs.

    How about the ‘disinformation” idiots going after fools who utter such nonsense, and lies about what Justice Alito wrote. There are so many, many lies circulating about him and the things he wrote. One fool even said that several of the justices “lied” to the senate about roe when being confirmed.

    Lies aplenty, but the czars…going after the Truth.

    • Yes, somehistory, going after the truth! Going after our freedoms.

      The first casualty of war is truth. Certainly true in cultural wars and civilizational wars, as well.

      The fools are legion; they are legions of deceit; legions slaying truth to lead us away from freedom to anarchy, submission, and slavery.

      • Keys.

        they claim that the “conservatives” and whatever else they call those who are trying to stick to the truth, are all trying to take away their “freedom” and their “rights,”…but that finger-pointing is exactly what they want to do.

        Like the group that gave out the home addresses of the Justices, also went to every site they could find that is in favor of babies getting to live, and taking them down by posting entire scripts from stupid movies, and just writing anything they can dream up…admitting it’s all just junk to make the sites crash.

        That basically means denial of service by a site-overload, denying the freedom of speech to those with whom they disagree.

  4. Did anybody else look at his picture and think it was Lurch from the Addams Family?

    My apologies—it’s been a long day.

    • It looks like a skull to me, like what might have been seen on the Twilight Zone, representing the reaper with grim news.

      No need for apologies, as far as my opinion is relevant.

    • Lurch, GreekEmpress, was better looking and wiser, though I note your comparison is apt minus the “reservations” I already indicated.

      Thus, no apology necessary. Besides, we live in an era when a complete fool is the bogus POTUS, Russia again never learns, and a dearth of liberty across the world (common sense too) keeps mankind in a kind of perpetual collective idiocy. What a waste.

      In any case, best to you and yours. May you prosper while so much of mankind, for no good reason, does not.

  5. I just looked at what Encyclopedia Britannica has about Chertoff. He was head of the Dept. of Homeland Security (DHS) in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina hit. Since 2003 the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been subordinate to DHS. The Britannica article on Chertov contains this:

    “Accordingly, Chertoff was one of the federal authorities who was faulted for the slowness and inadequacy of the official response in the aftermath of Katrina. The disjointed actions of his cabinet-level department—despite its confident statements—compounded the human tragedy among those who were stranded or made refugees by the storm. Despite coming under fire for FEMA’s poor response, Chertoff continued in his position, working in subsequent years to tighten the borders and to guard against terrorism.”

    We really are in Bizarro World. Joe Biden knows how to pick ’em (which in Bizarro World means no he does not).

    • the comic bizarro world was fun to read. the awful situation today has no humor, nothing to recommend it.

      • I know but I have to laugh about it sometimes to keep from going insane myself …. or maybe I already am insane and just don’t know it. Everything is so bizarre lately.

        • I understand. At least, I believe I do. I’ve been listening to the Twilight Zone radio for a few days and sometimes, when reading the news, I feel as if we are all in it…with none of us having any access to the script….nor the conclusion.

        • I did not know about the radio version of Twilight Zone. I gave it a try by picking one of my favorite episodes “Two.” The voice acting was quite good but it just could not compare to watching Charles Bronson and Elizabeth Montgomery in the original video version from 1961. If you did not see it on tv I would recommend watching that version first. Probably hard to find due to copyright provisions but I thought it was one of the best.

        • I probably saw it, as we watched it every week. Most of the ones I have heard as radio programs, I can recall the tv version, but if I’m not familiar with the voice over, I have to listen carefully to recall the original. I heard the “hitchhiker” last night and recalled Cloris Leachman in the role.

          I remember one that I saw only once…about some people on a bus that never finished its trip; only saw it one time and can’t recall the name, but it was really good. Not the one with the diner in it and the aliens, but another bus.

          I’ll have to see if I can find the “Two” you reference. Bronson was a good actor.

        • I found a clip of the final six minutes and serling saying it was a love story in the tz.
          I’ll have to listen for it on the radio series.

        • I never saw the Twilight Zone! I just watched “Two”
          Are there more of these?
          It’s better than a lot of the tripe on my streaming service!

        • GreekEmpress, try the link below. There are many episodes of the original Twilight Zone tv show among the videos posted. Some are great and some are not so great but when I was a kid I always looked forward to seeing a new episode each week. I hope the link works:

        • BTW, another good tv series similar to the Twilight Zone was One Step Beyond. Many of the episodes from that series are on YouTube. The stories were based on true events – but were usually embellished a bit for dramatic effect. Most of the stories were pretty good and sometimes downright scary because they were supposed to have really happened. Here is a link for that show:

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLVj8q3uQ7A&list=PL6o9Fqbxp8YhMsyU9Xi22z-5edSCAWCLa

        • Thanks, CES. Looks like the link will work. Have to delay watching until later today. I look forward to seeing the full episode.
          May try to watch a couple of others in between things I have to do.

          and, I have watched One Step Beyond. It can be a bit unnerving since they are based on true happenings, but interesting. I used to enjoy Outer Limits also.

        • Took a short break and watched “Two”. It was pretty good. Of course, only in the zone would there still be water clean enough to use as they did…in the real world where truth is being attacked daily, it would have evaporated.

          Pretty good episode, over-all. thanks for the link.

        • Overall “The Twilight Zone” was a very good and thought-provoking show.

  6. A new revised ,improved better and error free reiteration of something important about the Biden’s regime female chief of his newly created “Ministry of truth.”

    Nana Jankowicz had said “I shudder to think about if free speech absolutists taking over more platforms…”

    The first three words of her sentence starts off with the emotion of Jankowicz . Her politically correct emotion will with a passion strive to silence ,as far as she is able to ,all the people who will speak out and appose by exposing the insidious evil and deceptions of the movement of the Red/Green alliance.

    Likewise she does “shudder ” to think those as Robert Spencer , Brigitte Gabriel and Pamela Geller might keep their platforms to speak out about the stealth jihad and the subversive dangers of the stealth jihadists as Ilan Omar

    Furthermore we may be sure that Jankowicz does ,indeed ,”shudder” to think that men who in past times had been Muslims do speak out, with free speech and reveal the history of the horrors and oppression as well as the twenty-first century horrors terrors and oppression and current dangers of Islam as the former Muslim Ibn Warraq, who is now exposing the disturbing truth about Islam , as in his book entitled THE ISLAM In ISLAMIC TERRORISM.

    Moreover, Janknowicz might well “shudder” at the very thought of Christian men,as Mark A. Gabriel in his book titled ISLAM AND TERRORISM, who used to be Muslim now have the freedom of speech to speak out and expose the outright contradictions ofthe Qu ‘ran and how Islamic doctrine is in strong contrast to Bible doctrines, in addition who the Qu ‘ran does instruct violence and killing for Islam alone the brutal and cruel misogyny of Islam.

    George Washington has ,very wisely, declared “If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led like sheep to the slaughter.”

  7. With Disinformation Governance Board under fire, Biden’s handlers call in another disinformation peddler

    These people can’t get out of their own way. They can search til doomsday for a “disinformation” chief who isn’t a purveyor of “disinformation” himself, and they won’t find one. It’s what they do. And of course they aren’t even really trying to find one, but just to give the appearance of propriety.
    ……………..

    Yes–this is just cynical CYA.

    And here’s Michael Chertoff on the 20th anniversary of 9/11. He doesn’t mention Islam, Jihad, Islamic terrorism, Muslims, or even the vague and evasive “extremist terrorism” even once:

  8. warren…the pretend NA, says that the shootdown (my description) of roe will mean “miscarriages will be investigated” by the police.

    More lies. More and more lies and so much intimidation and threats from those opposed to life of babies.

    but, we who say biden is a fake president, and other Truths, are to be the targets of this skeletal liar and his foolish sidekick, the self-identified “expert” on lies.

  9. Alejandro Mayorkas, Micheal Chertoff, Antony Blinken, Yom Vilsack, Gina Raimondo, Miguel Cardons. Xavier Becerra, Alejandro Mayorkas, Anthony Blinken etc. all key members of our government.

    What happened our leaders names sound more like a third world country than American names like Smith, Jones, Miller, Johnson, and Wilson etc? Sadly some of these peoples names match the ideology of the countries these names come from.

    Conspiracy or is it just Me.
