DiResta’s CIA connection was revealed by her supervisor, Alex Stamos, during a presentation (video above). Had it not been for this casual mention that DiResta "worked for the CIA," this connection might never have surfaced. In his April 3 article, Shellenberger writes:

"We now know ... that the Censorship Industrial Complex is violating the First Amendment by coordinating with government agencies and receiving government funding to pressure and help social media companies to both censor information, including accurate information, while spreading disinformation, including conspiracy theories ...

One of the most intelligent, influential, and fascinating public-facing leaders of the Censorship Industrial Complex is Renee DiResta ... DiResta has, more than anyone else, made the public case for greater government-led and government-funded censorship ...

In 2021, DiResta advocated for creating a government censorship center ... within the federal government ... Did the Department of Homeland Security act on DiResta’s proposal to create a censorship center? It did ... DHS ... called it a ‘Disinformation Governance Board,’ which the agency announced publicly in April 2022.

DiResta’s rise to the highest levels of the U.S. intelligence community struck me back in December of last year as improbably meteoric. DiResta had repeatedly described her involvement in fighting disinformation as having started in 2013 when she became a new mom and grew concerned about spreading anti-vaccine information online ...

Two years later she was helping to fight ISIS online and by 2018 she was testifying before the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee. While these suspicions nagged at me, I waved them away ...

[G]iven the historical dominance of high tech by founders in their 20s and 30s, and the challenges of older people to understand social media, I convinced myself that a person with DiResta’s limited experience battling disinformation online might leapfrog over the hundreds if not thousands of researchers, analysts, and intelligence experts who conduct research and combat foreign disinformation for the U.S. government and government-funded think tanks and academic institutions. But then I learned that DiResta had worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)."

I didn't get that from social media.
The CIA is involved here. I guess you missed that.

If I posted on FB or some such Biden was just indicted for fraud or something, Metallic so called brain would jump on it as absolute truth.
His boss and mentor Putin, under arrest for war crimes as we speak and of course he won't be showing up for that, Mb would just say, Witch hunt.

Take any web site or forum. Subtract reason, evidence, and accountability. Add someone with a grievance. There you will find our dear @metalbrain feeding at the trough.
