Officials with the Department of Homeland Security said they'll continue to fight against disinformation despite the end of the board.
WASHINGTON - The Department of Homeland Security’s disinformation board has officially been disbanded.
The board was originally intended to coordinate the department’s activities related to fighting disinformation aimed at the U.S. public.Nina Jankowicz, an expert on Russian disinformation, resigned at that time because the future of the board seemed uncertain. GOP lawmakers accused her of being biased because of her past tweets on Hunter Biden’s laptop and the discredited Steele dossier.
Even though the board no longer exists, DHS officials said they will continue the fight against disinformation that undermines America’s security.
