The confusing entanglements of the DHS CISA Election Integrity Partnerships (EIP) personnel, the World Economic Forum (WEF) Global Coalition For Digital Safety, Atlantic Council GeoTech Center, and the CTI League Files.
Recall I already connected the CTI League file crew to a World Economic Forum 2018 program.
I also connected, Katie Starbird of the EIP, to the CTI League partnered Hacks/Hackers too. I’ll attach both of those below.
This newly found WEF program, the Global Coalition For Digital Safety, is headed by David Bray from the Atlantic Council GeoTech Center. The same center that housed Sara Terp and Pablo Breuer of the CTI League files. (See photos)
Amy X Zhang, of the WEF Global Coalition For Digital Safety (see photo), is from the Washington University Center For Informed people (CIP). The same center that ran the EIP, and is where Katie Starbird worked.
Amy Zhang also worked on the National Science Foundation (NSF) Convergence Accelerator project called Wisedex. Wisedex worked with the EIP.
“The Election Integrity Partnership (Washington and Stanford) will provide a data stream (to Wisedex) of misleading content related to the 2022 U.S. elections that will serve as one source of claims to profile. (See photo)
Also listed in the same NSF doc is mention of the ARTT 2 convergence accelerator. The same Hacks/Hackers one that Amy Zhang, Connie Moon Sehat, Tanushree Mitra, and Kate Starbird worked together on.
An amazing find here 👇🏻
❤️🔥 The World Economic Forum Global Coalition For Digital Safety even thanked Hacks/Hackers for their support. ❤️🔥
“We thank HACKS/HACKERS and Craig Newmark Philanthropies for their support of the Global Coalition for Digital Safety.”
So a U.S. government grant funded org (hacks/hackers) was thanked for their support by the WEF? This would include Katie Starbird then, true?
Hack/Hackers was also partnered with Google News lab, one of the earliest disinfo orgs.
Also note that Hacks/Hackers and Meedan founded the Credibility Coalition.
And Hacks/Hackers works on Reality Team and is partnered with the CTI League, Credibility Coalition, and the Cogsec Collaborative, plus more.
Amy Zhang is also from the WEF partnered Credabilty Coalition, Hacks/Hackers, Harvard Berkman Klein, and MIT.
Additional people listed on the WEF Global Coalition For Digital Safety doc:
☢️Connie Moon Sehat, Hack Hackers phase 2 of ARTT, WEF partnered Credibility Coalition, Meedan, and is a Senior Project Fellow, World Economic Forum.
☢️Jennifer 8 Lee, Hack/Hackers board member, co-founder Misinfocon, Founder Google/Knight Fndn Newsgeist, co-founder Credibility Coalition, Co-chair of the WEF Global Future Council on Media, Entertainment and Sport
☢️Daphne Keller, Director of Stanford Program on Platform Regulation, Cyber Policy Center Lecturer, Stanford Law School
☢️Ahmed Medien, Project Manager, Hacks/Hackers, Misinfocon organizer, Credibility Coalition, Project Fellow World Economic Forum Media Entertainment and Sport
☢️Tanushree Mitra, Hack/Hackers phase 2 of ARTT, credibility coalition, Assistant Professor, University Washington
*Note, their orgs listed may not be all inclusive.
**I just found something that indicates interoperability of Hacks/Hackers and Credibility Coalition. An email list request for Credibility Coalition to send help requests to either of two Hacks/Hackers individuals.
Sources and referenced posts to follow. This certainly calls for a congressional investigation. @Weaponization

Here’s the 2018 World Economic Forum program that worked with the Credibility Coalition folks involved with CTI League, Google linked orgs, and other disinfo groups.
Google and the WEF are recurring aspects in the censorship apparatus.
Kate Starbird of Washington University was involved with both the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) and the Virality Project. She also chaired the DHS's censorship subcommittee at CISA.
Kate, was also involved with a Hack/Hackers (Google partnered) project to use humans as misinfo bots.
The same Hacks/Hackers thanked by the World Economic Forum for their support.
“We thank HACKS/HACKERS and Craig Newmark Philanthropies for their support of the Global Coalition for Digital Safety.”
These are the same group of folks exposed in the CTI Files.
You know, I still want to know why we have the Institute for Statecraft Integrity Initiative folks working on disinfo for our elections via the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP).
DFRLAB still falls under the Institute for Statecraft/Zinc Network.
Nina Jankowicz wasn’t only the Integrity Initiative, but she was on the Zinc Network payroll too.

Ok here’s a document on the National Science Foundation convergence accelerators.
♦️Wisedex - {Track F}
Amy X Zhang etc - For use with Election Integrity Project (EIP)
“Led by University of Michigan,WiseDex harnesses the wisdom of crowds and AI
techniques to help flag more posts. The result is
more comprehensive, equitable, and consistent
enforcement, significantly reducing the spread of misinfo.
♦️ Analysis and Response Toolkit for Trust (ARTT) - {Track F} - Led by Hacks/Hackers -
Includes Amy Zhang, Connie Moon Sehat, and Kate Starbird etc.
“This assists online communities with building trust around controversial topics such as vaccine efficacy. Users receive helpful approaches to engage, navigate, and analyze
information.”
Feel free to examine other Track F censorship programs.
As Michael Shellenberger and Matt Taibbi said, all of track F should go.
This here thread by Mike Benz discusses the NSF Track F convergence accelerators. Which Biden uses to fund disinfo censorship work.
Mike explains things pretty well, so why repeat it. He also discusses Wisedex in detail here too.
🔸In the post above this, I made an error. That should have read that Wisedex worked with the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP). I accidentally put project.
🔥🔥🔥Breaking! Obama linked Ushahidi of Kenya created New Knowledge who was involved in Project Birmingham aka the Hamilton68 Russian bot Hoax. Ushahidi will prove to be a major factor in current and past events. We are talking the 2020 election AND January 6th too! (Those will be in another part.) And it’s gonna get a whole lot worse than just the elections!
🔹PART FOUR! Elections, Obama, Ushahidi and Big Tech. Let’s get some Ushahidi facts straight before the later exposé parts. Trust me, you’ll want to get familiar.
For starters, Barack Obama used Ushahidi for his 2012 election. And it was also used to monitor the 2016 US election from Kenya.
The now prev CEO of Ushahidi, Nat Manning, was the first ever Chief Data Officer of USAID under Obama. And Ushahidi was actually partnered with USAid too. A 2009 USAID contract for Afghanistan got them off the ground. Also involved in this Afghanistan and Ushahidi project was FrontlineSMS, Google, and the Synergy Strike Force.
The earliest seed funding donor of Ushahidi besides USAID was Obama’s favorite, Omidyar. Other donors included Soros Open Society, Rockefeller, UKAID, and Ford Fndn.
Sara J Terp, who was told by Obama to prevent the next Trump was Ushahidi also.
The weird New Knowledge founders switcharoo:
Ushahidi created New Knowledge and Jonathan Morgan and Chris Albon both of Ushahidi and its crisis.net were the ORIGINAL Popily (New Knowledge) Founders. Then later yet, Vidya Spandana, was ADDED as a founder. Then much later yet, the founders were totally adjusted removing Chris Albon and Vidya Spandana. This is when Ryan Fox showed up.
Essentially New Knowledge was initially created by Ushahidi using Ushahidi people.
Interestingly, Chris Albon previously worked at FrontlineSMS. And after Ushahidi, he moved on to become a director at Wikimedia.
Also remember that New Knowledge aka Popily were paid as a contractor by Daniel Jones along with Bean LLC aka Fusion GPS etc.
Ushahidi also belonged to Obamas State Departments Open Government Hub (OGH). Where the director of the Rhize Color Revolution org, Nada Zohdy, was a director. She was also the global network lead of the Obama Foundation. Both Rhize and a founder of the Serbian Otpor color revolution met at the State Dept OGH during Trumps presidency.
Also a member of the OGH was FrontlineSMS from Ushahidi’s Afghanistan days.
Erin Mazursky, who ran the Rhize color revolution org, was a USAID Youth Advisor, was an Obama field organizer, and belonged to the Ushahidi message board. There, she admitted to working with George Soros Open Society and the Atlantic Council.
Only weeks after the 2016 election, Erin suggested running a color revolution on Trump.
Also recall that Renee Diresta and Jonathan Morgan (DARPA) of New Knowledge both worked for the Obama Whitehouse and met during a Obama White House high level tech meeting at Silicon Valley. Renee later went on to help the Trump resistance including Indivisible in its earliest days. While using an international tech force.
• The first of the high level tech meetings on Jan 8, 2016 involved:
Attorney General Loretta Lynch, FBI Director James Comey, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and Lisa Monaco (counterterrorism adviser coordinating the effort). Additional participants included White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough.
• February 2016: Follow-on engagements. DiResta and Morgan personally first meet during/around these White House/tech sessions on extremist content and social-media manipulation (per DiResta’s 2017 NYT interview).
For the 2016 election, Ushahidi partnered with Georgetown University and the Election Protection Committee, who run 866-Our-Vote.
Post 2016 election, Ushahidi worked with Shaun King, professors at MIT and Harvard, Crisis Mappers, and a number of other organizations to gather reports of hate crimes across the USA.
Sources to follow, and see you for parts 5 and 6!
Ushahidi started Popily aka New Knowledge. Here’s two pieces of evidence.
“Ushahidi and its staff has incubated and spun out non-profits such as the iHub, and the Standby Volunteer Task Force, and for-profit entities such as BRCK and New Knowledge.”
Folks, stay with me! I’ve been working hard! I just linked Obama to the 2020 election and January 6th.
The same goes for the state dept linked orgs data republican has been talking about.
I’m gonna push this out before my censorship work.
Whew! I’m really digging in here folks.
There were lots of activists monitoring Jan 6th in DC. On site and electronically.
Global too.
Some of my related Jan 6 work on the Backfire method was deleted from X.
Ever hear of the Backfire method? It’s when they egg other folks on at a riot.
“Be ready to harness "backfire" as a movement.
- using government repression, non-state violence and other outsized control vs demonstrators to move those watching to engage on our behalf, and to mobilize the observers against the authorities and turn sympathies towards democracy defenders.”
🔥🔥🔥Massively Huge! Rodney Joffe, from the Trump Russia Alfa Bank scandal, served under the entire first Trump administration! So this also means that he worked under DHS CISA during the 2020 election!
*This is a do over because of new information.
It appears that I have documents for all of 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 showing that Rodney Joffe served on the Presidents National Security Telecommunications
Advisory Committee (NSTAC). Which is under DHS CISA.
Good lord, how did this happen? This is just totally unbelievable!
Anywho, I’ll be posting every single years docs, going backwards.
🔥🔥🔥Holy Cow! John Brennan is linked to global disinfo and anti conservative orgs! You see, the Intelligence Studies Project (ISP) that John Brennan and two other ex CIA belonged to was involved in the Global Disinformation Index (GDI) thru the Global Disinformation Lab (GDIL). It’s also affiliated with the illiberalism Studies Program.
Plus, I have a massive surprise at the end!
Remember the Texas National Security Network? It’s the entire University Of Texas state wide campus’s and its orgs. They all work together interchangeably.
Part of this Network is the LBJ School of Public Affairs. LBJ is where ex CIA John Brennan, Paul Pope, and Stephen Slick run the Intelligence Studies Program.
Both Global Disinformation Lab cofounders (Ryan Williams and Kiril Avramov) are from LBJ.
Ryan Williams headed up the Global Disinformation Labs Project Evergreen. Where they used a Policy Research Project team from the LBJ School of Public Affairs to write a database of global policy responses to disinformation.
Brennan, Pope, and Slicks Intelligence Studies Project is at LJB and often sponsored events for the Global Disinformation Lab. Just one big happy family.
The Global Disinformation Lab proclaimed an outright partnership with the Global Disinformation Index. And also worked with each other on a Disinformation Risk Assessment.
Here are the Global Disinformation Labs affiliates.
-illiberalism Studies Program
-Intelligence Studies Project
-Strauss center
-Clements center
-Center for European Studies university Texas Austin
-Center for Russian, Eastern European and Eurasian Studies (CREEES)
* Intelligence Studies Project is ran By Strauss and Clements at LBJ.
Biden’s State department worked with them too. Liz Allen the Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public was their go to.
“Really appreciate US Dept of States efforts in working to understand and countering mis- and disinformation. Looking forward to jointly collaborating on these efforts!”
♦️The Illiberalism Studies Program:
“Addresses questions related to democratic backlash, the spread of authoritarianism, post-liberalism, the far right, populism and nationalism.”
“Adherents of illiberalism argue that, in the face of a liberalism that has “gone too far,” it is time to reassert the rights of the collective, or of an alleged silent majority, by restoring national sovereignty in various spheres: politically, by rejecting supranational and multilateral institutions in favor of the nation-state and preferring a strong leader.”
Plus I have a 110 page report where they compare republican Christians to Russians:
“Marlene Laruelle explores the parallel between US Christian nationalism and the Russian case of a blending of the Russian Orthodox Church with the political language of the Putin regime.
♦️Now the Global Disinformation Lab works on more than disinfo.
They work with the Army Cyber Institute of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point to the tune of $250,000. This also involves Threatcasting which I have previously discussed during my CTI League files exposé. I don’t trust this disinfo lab in this arena.
They also run Project Tearline, where the military even gave it its own website. Tearline.mil
♦️ Now for even more big news! John Brennan was involved in a US Election LBJ Policy Research Project headed by Stephan Slick.
This also involved Chris Krebs, Michael Daniel, Nick Rasmussen, & more.
I have this below mentioned 243 page report and Brennan talks Russiagate outta the wazoo. I think a lot of X folks in the Spygate corner would be extremely interested in this.
“Working in collaboration with Nicholas Rasmussen, an Intelligence Studies Project Senior Fellow who serves as the director of the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism, Slick & his students will draft a final report to counterparts at Office of the DNI that includes recommendations to defend against future attempts to influence elections.
Sources to follow!
Let’s begin with sourcing the affiliates to the University Of Texas - Austin’s Global Disinformation Lab ( GDIL).
-illiberalism Studies Program
-Intelligence Studies Project
-Strauss center
-Clements center
-Center for European Studies university Texas Austin
-Center for Russian, Eastern European and Eurasian Studies (CREEES)
Intelligence Studies Project (ISP) is at LBJ, and is ran by Strauss and Clements.
If you look under the referenced thread in my top post, you will find sourcing for Brennan, Pope, and Slick being at ISP. And for Strauss and Clements running it.
Next, lemme provide a few pieces of evidence on the Global Disinformation Lab (GDIL) being partnered with the Global Disinformation Index (GDI).
♦️ Contract between GDIL and GDI
a. Compilation of media list and associated contact information for domain outreach, to the reasonable satisfaction of GDI.
b. Development of a keyword list which meets GDI’s reasonable standards in capturing adversarial
narratives in the United States of America.
c. Cleaning and anonymisation of all content for media domain review.
d. Review of at least 70 domains based on methodology and providing all relevant data entry for the
operations and content reviews, including all quantitative scores and qualitative notes for each domain that has been reviewed.
e. A summary of the key findings and trends for the media market in English (not to exceed 30 pages).
f. Organisation of an event and co-production of associated collateral activities for the public launch of the study.
🔥🔥🔥Breaking! War on the Rocks (WOTR) has some additional amazing partnerships and connections. Even leading to ex CIA staffers John Brennan, Paul Pope, Stephen Slick, and David Petraeus!
After Trumps 2016 win, John Brennan didn’t just disappear into TV land. No, he stayed involved with the vast network of the University of Texas, his Alma mater. Where a SOCOM individual, identified as a British asset, once wrote the Global Disinformation Index. Yeah you are about to see the University of Texas quite differently.
The above mentioned British asset, according to a whistleblower, was told by Obama to prevent Trump from winning again.
Where War On The Rocks comes in, is the Texas National Security Network and its Texas National Security Review.
The Texas National Security Network is vast and is essentially at least 22 entities or more enveloping the University of Texas Campus’s and orgs.
A few noteworthy examples:
- Intelligence Studies Project
- Strauss Center
- Clements Center
- University of Texas, Austin
- Texas National Security Review (WOTR)
- Etc
* University of Texas is Brennans Alma mater.
Ryan Evans (WOTR):
“As Founder and Editor-in-Chief of War on the Rocks, Ryan Evans summarizes, “think of us as the Washington-based action arm of the Texas National Security Network.”
Very interesting 🤔
♦️WOTR series part 2
War on the Rocks is partnered with the Texas National Security network to create the Texas National security Review.
In fact, the Texas National Security Network flat out CLAIMS TO SPONSOR War On The Rocks!
So, who all works with Ryan Evans of War On The Rocks at the Texas National Security Review?
- Ryan Evans (WOTR)
- David Petraeus ex CIA Dir
- James G. Stavridis, admiral
- Kathleen Hicks, senior vice president, Henry A. Kissinger Chair, and dir of the International Security Program at CSIS
- David shed, Defense Intelligence Enterprise workforce
Recall the Intelligence Studies Project is part of the Texas National Security Network. Here’s some of the staff at the Intelligence Studies Project:
- John Brennan ex cia
- Paul Pope ex cia
- Stephen Slick ex CIA
“Brennan is a Senior Advisor to the University’s Intelligence Studies Project (ISP) – a novel partnership between UT’s Clements Center for National Security and Robert S. Strauss Center for International Security and Law.”
(Texas National Security Network is actually co-directed by the Clements Center and Strauss Center.)
4. Interesting side notes - John Brennan is a senior advisor at the International Institute of Strategic Studies headquartered in LONDON! Which is ran by the CLEMENTS and STRAUSS CENTERS!
Many of the War On The Rocks staff are from Kings College in London!
Ryan Evan’s was Kings College and OPCON/TACON to the British-led Task Force Helmand.
5. Texas Security Network leaders:
- Stephen Slick, Dir Intelligence Studies Project - CIA
- Bobby Chesney, Dir Strauss Center
- William Inboden
Executive Director - Clements Center
5. UT Austin’s Intelligence Studies Project and the Texas National Security Network announce the inaugural Texas Intelligence Academy (TIA), an intensive academic.
Students selected for the first TIA cohort will be housed in the District of Columbia and study at the UT System’s Archer Center one block from the White House.
6. So you can see the commingling here’s an event held at the University of Texas at Austin.
“Paul (Pope) is joined by John Brennan, former CIA director, retired Adm. William McRaven, former commander of the Special Operations Command, Farah Pandith, author and former National Security Council and State Department official, and Nicholas Rasmussen, former National Counterterrorism Center director. This talk took place at the University of Texas at Austin and was sponsored by the Intelligence Studies Project, the LBJ School of Public Affairs, the Robert Strauss Center for International Security and Law, and the Clements Center for National Security.”
All facts to be sourced.
To begin, I’m going to cross reference Part One which involves the War On The Rocks spinoff, Breakrock Knowledge Inc.
Let’s begin with the Texas National Security Network (TNSN) which sponsors War On The Rocks (WOTH). WOTR is also partnered with the Texas National Security Review.
It prioritizes accessibility for national security professionals.
♦️TNSN operates an array of programs intended to support security-relevant research.
These include:
“THE TEXAS NATIONAL SECURITY REVIEW
The Texas National Security Review (“TNSR”) will be a path-breaking journal launching later this year. It will publish peer-reviewed policy-relevant scholarship that is timely, draws on a variety of disciplines, and prioritizes accessibility for national security professionals. It is produced in close partnership with the influential foreign and defense policy blog War on the Rocks, which the Network sponsors.”
