The Biden family and their allies are in hot water. They’re running out of places to hide.
And now Jim Jordan is forcing one Biden ally to testify before Congress.
President Biden has been running from justice concerning his family’s foreign business relationships for years.
The New York Post’s bombshell story about Hunter Biden’s laptop was target number one for censorship by the Left.
It got so bad for Biden, that he formed the “Disinformation Governance Board” under the Department of Homeland Security to “deal with misinformation and disinformation regarding Russia and illegal immigration.”
Anyone with half a brain could see the horrifying consequences for Americans’ freedom of speech.
And now Congress is demanding answers.
The Committee on the Judiciary has issued a subpoena on Nina Jankowicz, the former chair of the Disinformation Governance Board, forcing her to testify before the Committee on April 10, 2023. Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan stated in a letter to Jankowicz that the Committee is “conducting oversight of the so-called ‘Disinformation Governance Board.'”
The Committee wants to investigate the “creation, its activities, and related matters.” of the Board.
“We have repeatedly sought information from you concerning your official actions and duties as a DHS employee and former Executive Director of the Board, including how the Board intended to define disinformation, how it planned to collect information and from what sources, how it anticipated countering disinformation, and how it proposed to protect First Amendment rights.” Jordan said.
Jordan stated that the Judiciary Committee had requested Jankowicz’s “voluntary cooperation” in May 2022, but that she had “declined to comply voluntarily with our request for a transcribed interview.” in December 2022, January, February, and March 2023.
“Our oversight of the so-called ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ and its effect on Americans’ civil liberties fall squarely within the Committee’s jurisdiction and are ‘subject[s] on which legislation could be had,'” Jordan writes.
“These potential legislative reforms include the prohibition of such a federal ‘disinformation’ entity, restrictions on the executive branch’s authority to collect speech-related information about American citizens, or enhanced protections surrounding civil liberties.
As the former Executive Director of the Board, you are uniquely situated to provide information that is relevant and necessary to inform the Committee’s oversight and potential legislative reforms.”
“Accordingly,” the letter reads, “and in light of your disregard of our earlier voluntary requests, please find attached a subpoena compelling you to appear for a deposition.” a subpoena compelling you to appear for a deposition is attached.
As previously published by The Post Millennial:
The Disinformation Governance Board was formed under the Department of Homeland Security in April 2022, and its stated goal was to deal with misinformation and disinformation regarding Russia and illegal immigration, however, concerns were raised immediately about those goals and their impact on Americans’ free speech.
Jankowicz, as head of the Board, came under fire for her comments on restricting speech, and her attempt to discredit the New York Post’s factual reporting on the Biden family’s influence peddling and shady business deals, as revealed through an investigation into Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop. Human Events Daily’s Jack Posbiec was instrumental in bringing these concerns to light.
She had advocated for restrictions on speech as regards Covid-19 during the pandemic era, as well as a song she sang in videos based on Mary Poppins speaking about how people should handle Covid preparedness. She further promoted the Steele Dossier, which was disinformation itself intended to discredit President Donald Trump, which it did, leading to his first impeachment by the House.
