The Biden Regime has announced that its ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ is being “paused” as the Department of Homeland Security decides whether to continue with this ridiculous new sector or just scrap it entirely.

At a press briefing on Wednesday, new White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked some great questions by reporter Peter Doocy about the suspension of this “Ministry of Truth” program.

“Last week, you guys said that you needed this Disinformation Governance Board at DHS to make sure that freedom of speech is protected across the country and that these platforms are not used for forums of disinformation, so what changed?” asked Doocy.

Jean-Pierre responded that the Disinformation Governance Board had been paused because it was being “mischaracterized.”

“Look,” said Jean-Pierre, “the Department of Homeland Security, they began their statement report, repeating that the board had been intentionally mischaracterized, which is a little bit of what you were asking me, and they were explicit about what it does and doesn’t – it does not do.”

Doocy cleverly posed a follow-up question, asking,

“So, if it’s pausing because you think the board was mischaracterized, then the disinformation board is being shut down because of disinformation? Is that what’s happening here?”

“Look, I mean, the board was put forth for a purpose, right?” responded Jean-Pierre. “There’s been a mischaracterization from outside forces. And so, now what we’re going to do is going to – we’re going to pause it and we’re going to do an assessment.”
