You might already be aware that Nina Jankowicz, the head of the Biden DHS’s “Disinformation Governance Board” (aka the “Ministry of Truth) wants only verified blue checks on Twitter to be able to add “context” to other people’s tweets.
New York Post columnist Karol Markowicz reminds us that Jankowicz wants to go even further than that:
Jankowicz doesn't just want to let blue checks edit other people's tweets, she also wants to remove blue checks from people she finds untrustworthy. https://t.co/OzAKXZyX2t pic.twitter.com/XMawEXdhq0

This is just part of Markowicz’s column at the NY Post titled “Netflix is proof Americans have had enough of woke speech policing”:
Nina Jankowicz, President Biden’s pick to run the ministry, is particularly susceptible to conspiracy theories, having herself fallen for several.
As Benjamin Weingarten described in The Post last week, she’s “an unrepentant Russiagate collusion-monger who praised the former British spy behind the discredited Steele dossier. Jankowicz also amplified the ultimate in election-interfering disinformation — that the New York Post’s censored-but-true Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation.”
She also suggested that verified users of Twitter should be able to “edit” other people’s tweets for “context.” Even more alarming, Jankowicz thinks that some people shouldn’t be “verified” on Twitter because they’re “untrustworthy.” And who decides who is “untrustworthy”? Take one guess. “Unpersoning” was a concept in Orwell’s “1984” too.
Bottom line?
I find her untrustworthy https://t.co/LYV1cHAtNG

Jankowicz has proven herself to be exactly that on several occasions.
Gotta love Biden's "Ministry of Truth" https://t.co/21jJO0N1id

Remember when a blue check just meant you're verified as the person you claim to be? https://t.co/dirKnWyNzh

The Ministry of Truth would like to make that blue check mean “verified watchdog looking out for any information that isn’t government-approved propaganda.”
