🚨This week, Kate Starbird appeared on 60 Minutes, lamenting that 𝕏 only responded to 30% of the "misinformation" she flagged.

In 2018, Starbird begged her Facebook followers to vote Democrat to hold Trump responsible for "corruption and collusion" and his "racist, anti-LGBT agenda."

During the 2020 election, Starbird utilized AI to censor millions of social media posts, mapping out entire networks of Trump supporters and flagging entire narratives she deemed as "misinformation."

She worked with the Election Integrity Partnership, a CISA-backed censorship consortium, to systematically monitor, track, and censor entire belief systems at scale in the months before, during, and after the election.

What did they censor?

They silenced the discussions that the First Amendment was created to protect, including the debate on the integrity of mass mail-in voting, early voting, ballot dropboxes, and voting machines.

Since 2013, U.S. taxpayers have funded Starbird's work on censoring American citizens.

She held positions as the director of the University of Washington’s Center for an Informed Public, a board member of CISA’s “disinformation” subcommittee, and a founding partner of the EIP.

In her 2018 Facebook post, Starbird claimed Trump's “nationalism” and "patriotism" actually stood for “white supremacy," as she encouraged her followers to vote Democrat.

During the 2020 election, Starbird and the EIP claimed every "repeat spreader of election misinformation" happened to be a Trump supporter.

When 60 Minutes featured Starbird this week, they portrayed her as an objective, non-partisan "leader of a misinformation research group."

They must have missed her Facebook post where she urged her followers to vote Democrat to stop the "rise of fascism and white nationalism."

"If we can't stop it here, it won't be stopped," she emphasized. "Your children's lives depend upon it."

"We are facing a wholly different kind of threat."

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD — SENATE S4654 August 3, 2020 pg. 1

In 2016, the Obama-Biden administration had to lean on congressional leadership to act as a bridge to the States because the States so distrusted their Department of Homeland Security. Over the last 4 years, this administration’s DHS has develop its own deep relationship with State officials. In 2016, only 14 State or local jurisdictions had received high-tech Albert sensors to alert them to cyber intrusions. They are deployed in all 50 States today. There were 14 States that had them in 2016, and every State has them today. It was this administration that stood up the new Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center, with participation from more than 2,600 local jurisdictions and counting.

BREAKING: The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that mail-in ballots with no dates can't be counted by Pennsylvania election officials

Democrats were fighting so that every ballot that showed up would count... this ruling stops that insanity

When USAID uses the term "resilience" they really mean censorship:
- "The fractionation of the information landscape by new media is an important contributor to misinformation’s particular resilience to correction."
-"These approaches are often viewed as more important for sustaining long-term impacts as they concentrate on why and how disinformation influences society and the strategies to develop societal resilience against it."
- "Different demand-side solutions often look to governments, tech giants, and social media companies to promote education and training, raise awareness, or advance other efforts toward building more resilience against disinformation."
-"To build societal resilience against disinformation, the public must be aware of and understand the issue."
-"As advocated by the Knight Foundation, one of the best forms of resilience against mis- and disinformation is journalism."
-"DoS/USAID Joint Strategic Plan FY 2018-2022 Strategic Objective 1.4: Increase capacity and strengthen resilience of our partners and allies to deter aggression, coercion and malign influence by state and non-state actors"
-"Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab) uses open-source research to expose and explain disinformation; the DFRLab seeks to build “the world’s leading hub of digital forensics analysts (#DigitalSherlocks),” promoting objective truth, protecting democratic institutions and norms, and forging greater digital resilience worldwide." https://cnxus.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/usaid-disinformation-primer.pdf
