Emails show DHS made 'disinfo' group to censor speech before 2020 race

A report from the House Judiciary Committee revealed emails showing Department of Homeland security officials worked with Stanford University to create a 'disinformation group.'

"The report said the partnership's effort was directed at Republicans and conservatives by labeling information they posted as 'misinformation,' while information posted by Democrats and liberals was largely untouched.

They alleged the partnership was used to 'censor Americans engaged in core political speech in the lead up to the 2020 election.'

'The pseudoscience of disinformation is now – and has always been – nothing more than a political ruse most frequently targeted at communities and individuals holding views contrary to the prevailing narratives,' the report said.

Emails in the report showed DHS' Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Director Brian Scully told members of the Office of the Colorado Secretary of State that he had flagged parody accounts to Twitter.

Other emails show Scully communicated with Facebook to remove a post about the election that had been deemed misinformation.

The committee said candidates such as President Donald Trump and North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis, entities such as Newsmax and the Babylon Bee, and conservative commentators such as Sean Hannity, Mollie Hemingway and Charlie Kirk were targeted by the group."

Absolutely unacceptable!

This is old information that was previously report. When it was, Democrats and their voters tried to dismiss it as another right wing conspiracy theory like they do everything showing how corrupt. immoral and dishonest their party is. They knew at the time the information was true but because they only care about power they were more than willing to ignore the truth to keep their party in power. I've said it till I'm blue in the face but Democrats and their voters are the greatest threat this country faces.
