#Update Senate Republicans Demand Alejandro Mayorkas Answer For Misleading Testimony About Disinformation Board

breitbart.com/politics/2022/…

"At the May 4 hearing, Secretary Mayorkas testified that the Board 'has not yet begun its work.' Yet the documents indicate the Secretary had stood up the Board on February 24, 2022—more than two months earlier."

"Another document dated only six days before Secretary Mayorkas appeared before the Committee provides preparatory materials for a meeting between Under Secretary for Policy Robert Silvers and TWITTER."

"[T]alking points prepared by Ms. Jankowicz, the Board’s then–Executive Director appear to show that the Department does in fact monitor American citizens and that the Board’s work is concentrated on domestic threats."

GOP Senators Request Hearing

"The American public deserves transparency and honest answers to important questions about the true nature & purpose of the Disinformation Governance Board & it is clear that Secretary Mayorkas has not provided them—to the public or this Committee."
