She lied under oath to the Senate Judiciary Committee, repeatedly.
My first question was simple: Did you co-chair the Disinformation Governance Board?
Her Answer: "No"
Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas himself testified to Congress that she was the co-chair.
Not only that, but Daskal herself authored a memo creating the Disinformation Governance Board with her co-chair Robert Silvers.
She even called herself the co-chair in FOIA'd emails with colleagues.
So why did she blatantly lie under oath? Because she panicked — she wasn't expecting to be confronted on her wrongdoings today.
Also, do you remember Nina Jankowicz? She was the self-described "Mary Poppins of disinformation" and the Executive Director of the Disinformation Governance Board.
In 2022, as AG of Missouri, I sent a letter to Sec. Mayorkas promising to fight the Disinformation Governance Board "every step of the way." And I'm not done yet.
I will be working with DHS Sec. Noem to ensure the thousands of pages of documents that the Biden Administration redacted under FOIA are brought to light.
They may be dormant now, but if we don't rip them out at the root, our leftist censors will return sooner than you'd think.
As for Daskal? She lied under oath in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, likely multiple times.
The D.C. Bar, @VenableLLP (her new employer), and the DOJ need to look into what appropriate action might be for something like that. I'm happy to serve as a witness.

A Leftist NGO testified before @SenJudiciaryGOP, arguing against President Trump's recent anti-fraud efforts.
I did a little digging into the NGO—Public Citizen—and found two things: 1. It's funded by George Soros. 2. It calls everything it doesn't like "racist."
Receipts. đź§µ
Public Citizen, which calls itself a "national public interest organization," is actually a foot soldier in the George Soros extended NGO network, receiving over $6 million in recent years from Soros's "Open Society" leftist NGO slush fund.
But it doesn't stop at Soros, Public Citizen is funded by some of the biggest left-wing dark money foundations in America.
It's mission? Obstruct the Trump Administration and call everything racist.
And amplify that message they did, with event's like Netflix's "Reform, Solidarity, Action" rally -- hosted by Stacey Abrams and Soros NGO "Color of Change."
SCOTUS is hearing arguments on a simple Q: Does our Constitution ban states from recognizing the biological differences btwn men and women in sports?
No, it doesn't.
As Chairman of the Subcomm. on the Constitution—& as a dad of two daughters—here is what I am listening for. 🧵
The case today is a consolidation of two cases: one out of West Virginia and one out of Idaho.
Both involve laws protecting fairness in girls’ athletics by basing teams on biological sex at birth. The lower courts got each wrong. SCOTUS must step in.
West Virginia’s 2021 law requires school sports teams to be separated by biological sex, citing “inherent physical differences” between males and females. B.P.J., a biological male—accused of sexual misconduct—sued.
District court ruled for WV, but 4th Circuit reversed.
Foreign governments are building a global censorship-industrial complex to crush freedom of speech online.
Now, they're trying to force social media companies to censor American speech on U.S. soil.
I wrote to @elonmusk to sound the alarm. đź§µ
In Europe and elsewhere, foreign governments have imposed draconian censorship on their own people.
But they're also trying to impose it here—wielding their power to force U.S. companies to manipulate algorithms and take down content posted on U.S. soil.
European governments have imposed tyrannical censorship on their own citizens.
Now, they're trying to impose it on America.
Today, I'm asking the Trump Administration to sanction foreign actors—in the European Union and elsewhere—who aid and abet this censorship regime. 🧵
Over the past decade, we've seen alarming attacks on basic liberties across the West. In Europe, many governments have thrown their citizens in jail—sometimes for years at a time—for criticizing mass immigration, gender ideology, and various other parts of the left-wing program.
Now, they're seeking to impose their censorship on Americans.
The internet is global. It isn't split into country-by-country silos. If an EU regulator makes a platform comply with its speech codes, those speech codes end up affecting everyone who uses the platform anywhere.
