Biden's new disinformation czar said fears about CRT in Loudoun County schools are 'disinformation for profit' - despite entire school board now facing being voted out over woke 'equity' seminars for teachers

May 5, 2022

Joe Biden's new 'disinformation czar' dismissed concerns about Critical Race Theory in schools as 'disinformation for profit' - despite parents across the country being worried about the teaching of the philosophy in their children's classrooms.

 

Nina Jankowicz, a disinformation expert who has worked throughout Eastern Europe, was hired on April 27 to lead a Homeland Security Department working group designed to help its different agencies in dealing with disinformation on topics ranging from migration to plots from Russia and Iran.

 

But her appointment has angered Republicans.

 

The Republican National Committee dubbed the committee she heads 'Ministry of Truth' in a nod to George Orwell's novel '1984,' and raised fears that the group will deem as disinformation 'any speech we don't like.'

 

Other critics have seized upon her past comments - noting that she described Hunter Biden's laptop as 'the laptop from hell' and echoed the opinion of national security experts at the time that the laptop was part of a Russian influence operation.

 

It has since been confirmed by multiple news organizations, including DailyMail.com, as authentic.

 

On Wednesday, a clip from a November 2021 address to The City Club of Cleveland was circulated online, which showed Jankowicz downplaying concerns about CRT.

 

"Jankowicz, for her part, said at City Club of Cleveland event: 'You're absolutely right that Critical Race Theory has become one of those hot-button issues that the Republicans and other disinformers, who are engaged in disinformation for profit, frankly - there are plenty of media outlets that are making money off this too - have seized on.

 

'And I live in Virginia, and in Loudoun Countythat's one of the areas where people have really honed in on this topic.

 

'But it's no different than any of the other hot-button issues that have allowed disinformation to flourish.

 

'It's weaponizing people's emotion.'"
