Ex-Disinformation Board chief Nina Jankowicz breaks silence, cites death threats

The now-former head of the Biden administration’s abortive disinformation board said in an interview Wednesday that she received death threats almost every day during her three weeks on the job.

Nina Jankowicz made the claim to MSNBC “All In” host Chris Hayes hours after she announced her resignation following the Department of Homeland Security’s decision to “pause” the Disinformation Governance Board.

“I have maybe had one or two days I didn’t report a violent threat,” she said. “Something like, ‘We’re coming for you and your family’, ‘You and your family should be sent to Russia to be killed’, [they] encouraged me to commit suicide.”

The board was criticized almost from the moment of its creation last month by conservatives, libertarians and even some liberals, who compared it to the Ministry of Truth from George Orwell’s novel “1984.”

Government only rewards failure. A new name and double the budget for the next version. Obviously they were underfunded and need to attract better talent.

That said, if we have a free and fair press in this country you don't need a Ministry of Truth. Its the job of the press to present information to the public. Since the press is now one giant Operation Mockingbird, we have no free and fair press.

Paul Krugman is Lord and King Mockingbird.

I don’t think “ESAD” qualifies as a death threat.

What? Did someone tell her to drink bleach and get horse worming suppositories? Or they might have told her to go get covid vaccinated?

“She’s not going away.”

They never do. Her ugly mug will pop up at some think tank or NGO.

Anyone stupid enough to believe this has gone away rather than just go quiet is an idiot.

The depraved degenerates don’t just stop doing their crap. they simply change how the crap is done and how loud they’ll be about doing it.

“she received death threats almost every day during her three weeks on the job”

Well, you know, when you are helping to build a fascist dictatorship, the people you are oppressing tend not to be fans.

Oh bs. They got called oout for,trying to,subvert free speech, and realized how awful it woild look if they actuslly did subvert the constitution, and they backed off- plain and simple. Her claim is simply a ruse to garner sympathy and support for govenrment going after free,speech using the excuse that the very people that they are going after are violent and need to be reigned in.

It is more gaslighting by the left. More disinformation by the left who apparently,think,that they are the only ones allowed to peddle disinformation.

They tried to stifle free speech, and they got caught and exposed. Our founding fathers fought and died to protect free speech, and now,the current faux admin thinks it has the right to take that right away. This “disinformation committee was the boldest attempt,yet to turn us into North korea. . Thankfully the gop stood up strong enough against it that the left backed down. The left view free speech as dangerous- our Founding fathers viewed it as essential to a free society, and revered it so much that they risked imprisonment and death to stand up for it.

I know she worked awhile for the ironically named “National Democratic Institute” or some similar name. It is a nonprofit, supposedly nonpartisan foundation jointly funded by we the taxpayers (State Department) and the Open Society Foundation (i.e., Soros) and at least one of its efforts was interfering in the last few Ukraine elections.

It’s funny how criticism is equivalent to threat. Our “news” media is not our friend.

Do people make death threats to officials of Homeland Security and not get arrested?
I doubt it.
