[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] - The Department of Homeland Security set up a new Disinformation Governance Board to tackle misinformation in minority communities
- It will operate under the Biden-era Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3) and provide grants to help curb radicalization in the U.S.
- Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas did not disclose any powers that would be granted but said it would also aim at election misinformation
- Nina Jankowicz, a Russian disinformation expert, will head up the new board
- Jankowicz has previously questioned the validity of Hunter Biden's laptop, calling it 'a Trump campaign product'
- She also told NPR last week that she 'shudders to think about' more free speech on social media platforms after Elon Musk bought Twitter
