State AG: Federal Agency Was “Weaponized To Suppress Domestic Speech”

January 15, 2023

351

The federal government was weaponized versus the speech of daily Americans.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey deposed Brian Scully of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

Scully is the head of the “Mis-, Dis, & & Malinformation “Team that was begun in 2018.

Initially, the group was simply expected to fend off foreign cyberattacks and was the Countering Foreign Influence Taskforce.

It altered its name in 2021 showing that it would now be concentrated on domestic speech instead of simply foreign hazards.

Bailey stated, “This is simply the pointer of the iceberg. We anticipate launching more files, in addition to the highlights of the Scully deposition, in the days to come.”

Attorney General Bailey:

PART THREE: In our efforts to secure the First Amendment, we deposed Brian Scully of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), an essential gamer in the federal gov’s efforts to reduce so-called “mis-, dis-, and mal-information” (MDM) about elections. (1/10)

CISA, housed in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and produced initially to fend off foreign cyberattacks, has actually now been weaponized to reduce domestic speech. (2/10)

This is the exact same group that released the Orwellian “Disinformation Governance Board” in 2015. Due to enormous public reaction, they officially “dissolved” that group, however its work continues. (3/10)

CISA’s head, Jen Easterly, thinks that the “Infrastructure” in CISA does not indicate safeguarding roadways and bridges. It indicates “cognitive facilities,” i.e. reducing particular sort of speech. (4/10)

Our depo. concentrated on Scully, leader of the “Mis-, Dis, & & Malinformation” Team (begun in ’18 as the Countering Foreign Influence Taskforce to fend off foreign cyberattacks). In 2021, the CFITF altered its name, showing its shift from foreign dangers to domestic speech (5/10)

A number of the exhibitions from the other day’s deposition are consisted of listed below: (6/10)

Here, Twitter “actioned” (censored) accounts under their “civic stability policies” after CISA flags them (7/10)

Here, we see CISA uses to assist the significant social networks business get in touch with regional election workplaces (8/10)

To protect the 1st Amendment, it’s necessary that we stand versus the federal gov. weaponizing its resources versus the very individuals it’s planned to secure. Missouri will continue to lead the charge versus the outright attack on Americans and their right to complimentary speech. (9/10)

This is simply the suggestion of the iceberg. We anticipate launching more files, along with the highlights of the Scully deposition, in the days to come. (10/10)
