The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) announcement that its newly formed Disinformation Governance Board would be reviewed by two individuals has raised eyebrows, as one member has a history of pushing misinformation himself.

To help instill “trust in our work,” the DHS has asked former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick and former DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff to lead a “thorough review and assessment” of the disinformation board, the DHS said in a statement posted to its Twitter account on May 18.
