Newly uncovered documents reveal a covert operation within the Department of Homeland Security that censored Americans’ social media posts that alleged the 2020 presidential election was stolen.
Agents not only censored posts that alleged the election was manipulated to boost Democrat nominee Joe Biden, but also discussed how to hide the operation from federal document disclose laws.
The non-profit public interest law firm Judicial Watch reports they “received 44 pages of records in a Freedom of Information Act (F lawsuit from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that show a close collaboration between DHS’s Cybersecurity and Information Security Agency (CISA) and the leftist Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) to engage in ‘real-time narrative tracking’ on all major social media platforms in the days leading up to the 2020 election.”
“These records show the lengths to which a ‘Homeland Security’ Deep State agency went in its effort to censor and suppress Americans during and after the 2020 election,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “That it took a federal lawsuit to extract these disturbing records should raise additional worries about what else this Biden administration is up to.”
“The records discuss ‘takedowns’ of social media posts and the avoidance of creating public records subject to FOIA,” JW reports.
“The records also show that the EIP, which was initially called the Election Misinformation Partnership in the days leading up to the November 3, 2020, election, tasked staffers with monitoring online election content 24 hours a day with a priority being ‘disinfo that is going viral,’” JW reveals.
The Election Integrity Partnership was created in July 2020 to control information about the upcoming presidential election. According to Just the News:
The consortium is comprised of four member organizations: Stanford Internet Observatory (SIO), the University of Washington’s Center for an Informed Public, the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab, and social media analytics firm Graphika. It set up a concierge-like service in 2020 that allowed federal agencies like Homeland’s Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and State’s Global Engagement Center to file “tickets” requesting that online story links and social media posts be censored or flagged by Big Tech.
Three liberal groups — the Democratic National Committee, Common Cause and the NAACP — were also empowered like the federal agencies to file tickets seeking censorship of content. A Homeland-funded collaboration, the Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center, also had access.
According to the documents secured by JW, one example of a post that would be flagged by federal agents for removal could say:
#BidenStoleMichigan is trending on Twitter on election day. Groups of seemingly-local accounts tweet @MISecofState to demand the Michigan election results be declared invalid, citing a fresh Epoch Times article alleging shady connections between Michigan’s SoS, Bill Gates, and Joe Biden. Their tweets are relatively few, but see high engagement shortly after posting and spread around right-leaning Twitter. Researchers trace the origin of the article to posts on 4chan and Parler encouraging Michiganders to confront @MlSecOfState on Twitter over the story and calling for the Michigan results to be declared invalid.
It is, in fact, unconstitutional for federal agents to remove such a post.
