Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday insisted he was unaware that the person his department tapped to head up its Orwellian “Disinformation Governance Board” once called Hunter Biden’s laptop Russian disinformation.

Mayorkas, testifying at the Senate Appropriations Committee, was grilled over the hiring of Nina Jankowicz as the DHS’ “disinformation czar” and the board she will run that has been dubbed the “ministry of truth” by its critics.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) pressed Mayorkas on who hired Jankowicz and whether the secretary knew about her comments about the laptop that became the basis of a series of blockbuster exposes by The Post in October 2020.
