SURPRISE! Leadership At Joe Biden’s ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ Has Ties To George Soros; At least Republicans are uniting against this.

 Gateway Pundit  "Biden’s Disinformation Board Co-Leader Has Been In Bed With Soros"

Members of Joe Biden’s disinformation governance board all have one thing in common: they are backed by radical leftists.Disinformation board leader, Jennifer Daskal, has at least three close ties to liberal billionaire, George Soros, as NewsBusters highlighted.

With both of their agendas involving censorship, it’s no surprise the two have previously worked together.

Daskal worked as a senior counter-terrorism counsel for the anti-Semitic Human Rights Watch group, which received over $32,000,000 from Soros between 2000 and 2014. Soro’s also gave over $600,000 to the Just Security blog where she worked as a founding editor.

To put it in to prospective, Just Security claimed the Biden administration is the answer to peace and freedom. Daskal, though, will be a part of the very group responsible for stripping people of their Freedom of Speech.

The disinformation board has been dubbed the “Ministry of Truth.” Daskal’s past positions, however, suggest she will play a key role in keeping up with Democrat’s agenda of keeping Americans blind sighted by what it really happening.

"This board should be shut down immediately."

Interpreting Sunny Hostin on ‘The View’

Interpreting Sunny Hostin on ‘The View’ | Ricochet  "There was a headline that caught my attention on Gateway Pundit: “Racist Sunny Hostin of ‘The View’ Lectures Guest Host Saying ‘Black Republicans are an Oxymoron’ and She Doesn’t ‘Understand Black and Latino Republicans.’” Gateway offers a lot of red meat on the website, so I don’t always expect that the article that follows will be a full and fair disquisition of what happened. But this article was a pretty straightforward statement of what The View cast member Sunny Hostin had to say:

"'It seems that the whole point of The View is to energize a voting bloc by shouting the craziest anti-American talking points while creating the illusion of a mob behind them with the APPLAUSE sign lighting up at just the right moments.". . .

"Better to watch the anti-View, “Outnumbered”.   Actual accomplished women, intelligent discussions, no rabid mob.  

"(And much prettier… a sexist would say.)

"It was a brilliant business move for Fox News to offer an alternative."


Candice Owens vs Whoopi

Good response, Candice, but remember that Whoopi has the "Applause" director on her side.


"Candace Owens ENDS Whoopi Goldberg's Career With An EPIC Rant - YouTube"

“How dare you tell us what to do with ourselves and our doctors!” You’re right, Whoopi… remember COVID shots? Oh… it only works when they tell us what to do with ourselves when it fits YOUR agenda. GO CANDACE. I love your videos. Thank you for speaking the truth and exposing these “celebrity” losers.:

No matter what weird language Biden prefers, today is still Mothers' Day

 In honor of "Birthing Persons" today

No matter what weird language Biden prefers, today is still Mothers' Day - American Thinker  "The word "mother" is being erased by the federal government, in accordance with the executive order that President Biden signed on his first day in office on January 20, 2021.  Along with other sexed words (father, brother, husband, wife, daughter, son), the edict "Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation" is leading to the elimination of traditional terminology.

"The proliferating bastardization of the language would be laughable if it weren't so insulting:

Birthing parents
Childbearing people
Gestational carriers
Bodies with vaginas
Menstruators
Postnatal people
People with a uterus

"The Ministry of Truth (AKA the new Disinformation Governance Board that has been created under the Department of Homeland Security) no doubt will be helping us all get used to the new usage.

"As George Orwell observed, "if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought." 

At Edinburgh Napier University in Scotland, the Wokerati have started instructing students on the care and treatment of pregnant males, and future midwives are being trained to be able to catheterize a penis during "labor."

Friday Cartoon: By Any Other Name, It's Orwell's 'Ministry of Truth'

 Friday Cartoon: By Any Other Name, It's Orwell's 'Ministry of Truth' – RedState


"The highlights were covered this morning and detailed in a Book called 1984.

"The Biden Administration can call it whatever cute name they like. “Dept of FeelGoodness” is another they might have considered, but the title they settled on is “Disinformation Governance Board.” It will be headed by a troubling individual named Nina Jankowicz. She’s started to scrub her social media —  but for someone who will be heading a federal agency that will ostensibly track information, Jankowicz is kinda slow to the party.

"She is unserious but dangerous. She has a well-documented history loaded with crazy rants. Here are a couple of examples of Field Marshal Jankowicz in her free time:

"Don’t watch the videos if you’ve eaten in the last 30 minutes, but in the second video Jankowicz put her craziness to song,"

Jen Psaki, Condescending Professional Liar

 Saturday Cartoon: Jen Psaki, Professional Liar – RedState


"As a cartoonist, I’m gonna miss Jen Psaki. She’s an irrepressible political hack and professional liar, but I will miss her. Why? Because the lying isn’t going to stop, and the new press secretary seems to have no physical ticks to mock. I had a good time mocking Jen and her hair flips (usually three per lie).

"Her condescending tone and her ability to not burst into flame while blatantly lying was quite a skill-set. Her obvious gifts at both seem to combine into a perfect fit for her new employer MSDNC. She will be paid a lot more to lie, and no doubt, she’ll be fed secrets from her chums at the White House.

"Then she can break stories like home addresses of Supreme Court Justices, or maybe she’ll be the first talking head to announce that Biden has tasked a hit team to kill Vlad. That should start WWIII, and Jen will be the first journo to report on the incoming missiles.

"Nah. On second thought, I really won’t miss her. Her mastery of lying would put Pinocchio to shame–and people like that are too common to count in Washington._

Biden's new press secretary raises serious conflict-of-interest questions

 

Reality Bites by Broc Smith.

Biden's new press secretary raises serious conflict-of-interest questions - American Thinker   . . ."Her personal life had its share of challenges with her family initially not being accepting of her sexuality, which she says caused her to attempt suicide.

"Despite her struggles, she managed to work her way up the Democrat hierarchy.  She worked in far-left advocacy groups such as MoveOn.org and the ACLU and liberal media houses such as MSNBC and NBC. 

"She was a key political director in the Obama administration.  Prior to joining the White House press team, she was chief of staff to Kamala Harris.  Next week she becomes the White House press secretary.  

"She is a hardcore Democrat who subscribes to the groupthink and frequently wallows in victimhood." . . .

"Because she happens to be prominent CNN reporter Suzanne Malveaux.

"A White House press secretary in a long-term relationship with a prominent media personality is a blatant case of conflict of interest in both appearance and substance.  It is blatantly unethical of the White House to offer Jean-Pierre the job, and it was unethical of her to accept the position. 

"But ethics and morals have no place in the world of Democrats." . . .

Oligarchs speaking out against the war signal that Putin is losing his grip on Russia's elite, says the head of the Justice Department's KleptoCapture group


 Oligarch Outcries Against War Show Putin Is Losing Loyalty: DOJ (businessinsider.com)  "Several Russian oligarchs have publicly broadcasted their opposition to the Ukraine war — a sign that Putin is losing his grip on the country's elite, the head of the Justice Department's KleptoCapture group told CNN in an interview published Friday.

"While discussing the impact of sanctioning Russian oligarchs, KleptoCapture lead Andrew Adams pointed to statements made "by people who previously were actively supportive of the Kremlin or criminally silent about its actions, who have now come forward to complain about the latest effort to inflict damage in Ukraine."

" 'That is the signal that I would look for in terms of the solidity and stability of Putin's grip on these people," he added.

"Sanctioned billionaires Mikhail Fridman and Oleg Deripaska were some of the first Russian businessmen to share their disapproval of the invasion, a rare showing of public disagreement with the Kremlin.". . . 



LA District Attorney George Gascon Declines To Prosecute Chappelle Attacker

 As recall hits 400,000 signatures, Gascon won’t prosecute alleged Chappelle attacker. | KABC-AM   "Alleged"

"LA District Attorney Declines To Prosecute Chappelle Attacker

"(Los Angeles, CA) — The Los Angeles County District Attorney is declining to prosecute the man who allegedly attacked comedian Dave Chappelle. D-A George Gascon will not file any criminal charges. He’s instead sending the case to the L-A City Attorney for possible misdemeanor charges.

"This action–or inaction–comes as the recalldageorgegascon.com committee hit 400,000 signatures. The group sent this press release:". . .

. . ."The suspect is behind bars after tackling the comedian on Tuesday night. The man was reportedly armed with a knife. Twenty-three-year-old Isaiah Lee was booked for suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. The D-A’s office says that while criminal conduct occurred, they believe it “did not constitute felony conduct.” It comes at a time when Gascon is facing a recall effort for not prosecuting many high-profile cases. The recall website is GG Home - Recall DA George Gascon " (Emphases added by TD)

In 2019 Gascon was the man for liberal hopes; California DA race a major test for criminal justice reform movement - POLITICO   

. . ."Gascón’s work in San Francisco earned him the admiration of like-minded reformers and the enmity of the city’s police union. The president of San Francisco Police Officers Association responded to Gascón’s LA campaign with a statement that cops were “praying for the residents of Los Angeles hoping that George Gascón does not do to their city what he did to San Francisco during his tenure.”

"That type of opposition historically would have been politically fatal for anyone running for DA, whose close work with law enforcement has tended to translate to political alignment. But other progressive prosecutors who have also antagonized cops argue that the political terrain is shifting, and that support from rank-and-file law enforcement is no longer a necessity.". . .

. . ."Woods’ tweet follows Paul grilling Mayorkas during a Senate Homeland Security hearing on Wednesday over claims that he made about Russia and the pandemic.

“Do you think the Steele dossier included Russian disinformation?” Paul asked him.". . .

. . .“I mean, think of all the debates and disputes we’ve had over the last 50 years in our country,” Paul stated. “We worked them out by debating them. We don’t work them out by the government being the arbiter. I don’t want guardrails. I want you to have nothing to do with speech. You think we can’t determine, you know, speech by traffickers is disinformation. Do you think the American people are so stupid they need you to tell them what the truth is? You can’t even admit what the truth is with the Steele dossier. I don’t trust government to figure out what the truth is. Government is largely disseminating disinformation.' ”

PolitiFact finds DeSantis was right, drops fact-check

 Don Surber: PolitiFact finds DeSantis was right, drops fact-check  

"PolitiFact is a Marxist propaganda machine that lives off tax-free donations as if it were the Little Sisters of the Poor or some other worthy charity.

"My problem with PolitFact is that its propaganda is so blatant -- so obvious -- so phony. They rub their lies in our faces.

"And yes it lied in 2008 to get Obama elected president. For that it received a Pulitzer. Among other things, PolitiFact vouched for Obama's Big Lie that you could keep your doctor. PolitiFact said that was 100% true.

"Only after Obama was elected, Obamacare signed into law, and Obama re-elected did PolitiFact admit he lied.

"It falsely called it the Lie of the Year in 2013. Wrong year. Obama told that lie repeatedly in 2008, not 2013.

"For 6 years now, PolitiFact has distorted, mangled and twisted Trump's words. This year, PolitiFact has focused like a laser on DeSantis.". . .

This gives rise to some parody from Babylon Bee:

Snopes Publishes Fact-Check On Whether Snopes Plagiarized But Oh No! The Whole Article Seems To Have Been Stolen From PolitiFact | The Babylon Bee  


"Snopes has finally fact-checked the accusation that Snopes co-founder David Mikkelson plagiarized over 50 articles, finding the claim a "mixture" and saying that it is "lacking important context."

"But oops! It looks like the Snopes fact-check on whether Snopes fact-checks are stolen was stolen entirely from PolitiFact! Oh no! It appears the article was copied word for word from competing fact-checker PolitiFact, causing more problems for Snopes.. . ."

. . ."I have every expectation that you will be found.  The community of clerks and others privileged to see such documents is a small circle.  Once we know your identity, I would love to relish the sight of a proper consequence for such a towering breach of ethics.

"But I know better.  Sure, there will be a moment of public scorn, and a corner of shame carved out in our history for the first such abrogation of trust within the realm of our highest court.  But you will soon bask in the healing glow of adulation from those who will have considered your treachery to be the height of heroism.

"This is the hallmark of today’s left.  When you people think you are right, rules don’t matter.  If you were driven by the goal of wrenching justices away from their constitutional duty, there will be an appreciative, even worshipful crowd of the like-minded to run interference for you.". . .

Except the fight was not good.  The leak was not good. You have stained the history of the Supreme Court with this subversive escapade.  But the bottom line contains good news for America.  Long after you fade into distant memory, the Constitution will still stand repaired.  You may be driving Bentleys bought with the dirty money of your fans, but those of us who value the rule of law will enjoy a reward of even greater value—the moral, legal and political victories of a half-century battle won at last.

. . ."Psaki expressed concern that people were more concerned about the nature of the protests rather than the threat the Supreme Court posed to Roe v. Wade.

“ 'I think we shouldn’t lose the point here,” she said.

"Psaki also said the president understood why people are upset by the arguments against the Constitutional right to abortion in the leaked draft of the document.

“ 'I think the president’s view is that there is a lot of passion, a lot of fear, a lot of sadness from many, many people across this country from what they saw in this leaked document,” she said.

"Psaki also refused to condemn the leak of the document from the Supreme Court.

“ 'This is not about the leak,” she said. “This is about women’s health care.' ”. . .
