Biden puts disinfo 'Mary Poppins' on ice, scraps Orwellian DHS board
[NYPOST] The Biden administration has "paused" its controversial plans to create a Disinformation Board, causing its would-be leader to resign. In a statement Wednesday, Nina Jankowicz, the "disinformation expert" tapped to head the panel, said that "[w]ith the Board’s work paused and its future uncertain, and [sic] I have decided to leave DHS [the Department of Homeland Security] to return to my work in the public sphere." Jankowicz’s departure and the decision to scrap the board was first reported by the Washington Post. The board had been the subject of weeks of backlash from Republicans, libertarians and even some liberals, who likened the scheme to the Ministry of Truth from George Orwell’s classic novel "1984."
