Show Notes
This week is a win for discord! Our accountability institutions brought some much-needed sunlight to Biden's proposed Disinformation Governance Board, which promptly shriveled in the public gaze. We look at what erstwhile Disinformation Czar Nina Jankowicz had to say about the agency's demise, ask what Orwell got wrong, and discuss what the public did right. Then, we take a peek inside Congress' new $40 billion aid package to Ukraine and talk about what might be missing. Meanwhile, America-first natcons are seething about the 'GloOoOoObalist Agenda,' but also meanwhile, America-first natcons are holding a destination CPAC in… Hungary. It's a whole lot of hot nonsense to unpack, so join us!
