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.

She's said "Mexico is my country, just like the U.S...I can't choose between the two."
She claimed Trump "demonized" "my people."
Biden made her chair of America's 250th birthday commission.
I'm urging President Trump to replace her. 🧵
In 2022, Biden appointed Rios as Chair of the U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission—the body tasked with planning the celebration of our nation’s 250th anniversary—to replace President Trump's original pick for the role.
The entire process took place under dubious circumstances.
Rios is a longtime Democrat partisan. She served as U.S. Treasurer under President Obama from 2009-2017.
She also has a disturbing history of extreme partisan bias and anti-American rhetoric—as @nataliegwinters documented in this thread last week:
THREAD - NEW: @OIGatHHS today released an audit of NIH’s funding of gain-of-function research, specifically grants to EcoHealth Alliance, run by Peter Daszak. The lack of oversight is stunning and I intend to demand more answers. Here are the highlights:
