(Mercola)—In an April 3, 2023, Substack article,1 investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger exposes Renée DiResta as one of the key architects behind the censorship industrial complex (a term coined by Shellenberger himself).
In it, he draws many of the same conclusions I did a year ago, when I dissected DiResta’s “Shooting Starlings” essay.2 In my December 7, 2022, article, I pointed out that DiResta appears to be a key player in the censorship of Americans, and that behind her public persona hides direct connections to the globalist deep state.
Why Did DiResta Hide Her CIA Connection?
DiResta is the research director for the Stanford Internet Observatory, founded in June 2019 to promote internet censorship policies and conduct real-time social media narrative monitoring. As I pointed out in December 2022, she’s also connected to the CIA, and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).3
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:4
“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).”
Censorship Industrial Complex Is Loaded With Former CIA Officials
According to DiResta, her “purported secret-agent double life was an undergraduate student fellowship at CIA, ending in 2004,” and that she’d “had no affiliation since.”
“But DiResta’s acknowledgment of her connection to the CIA is significant, if only because she hid it for so long,” Shellenberger writes. “And, notably, the CIA describes its fellowships as covering precisely the issues in which DiResta is an expert …
Is DiResta telling the truth when she claims she’s had ‘no affiliation since’? Perhaps. But one of the things I have heard from multiple people, including people within the intelligence community, is, ‘Nobody ever retires from the intelligence community.’
Such a claim is, no doubt, exaggerated. But there is truth to it. Moreover, one of the main characteristics of spycraft is the deployment of agents and assets not publicly affiliated with the CIA or other intelligence agencies.”
Shellenberger also points out that former CIA officials in general feature heavily in the censorship industrial complex.

No fewer than seven former CIA directors are on the board of the Atlantic Council, which is partnered with the Stanford Internet Observatory’s Election Integrity Partnership and Virality Project that DiResta is directly involved in. The chief strategy officer and the director of federal programs at Graphika — another Stanford Internet Observatory partner — are also former CIA officials.
Why Did DiResta Become the Face of the Censorship Industrial Complex?
According to Shellenberger, DiResta “is without question one of the most, if not THE most, influential leaders within the network of for-profit and nonprofit organizations and government agencies that comprise the Censorship-Industrial Complex,” having led both the 2020 Stanford Internet Observatory’s Election Integrity Project and its 2021 Virality Project, the latter of which was aimed at taking down vaccine misinformation.
“The question now is why,” Shellenberger says. “Who is Renee DiResta, and why is she, and not somebody else, the public-facing leader of the censorship industry and a trusted advisor to Democrats in Congress?
Why is she doing it? And what will it take to defund the Stanford Internet Observatory, dismantle the censorship industry, and disempower DiResta?
To answer those questions, we first need to understand how DiResta got away with and was even rewarded for participating in one of the most outrageous and likely ILLEGAL, election disinformation campaigns in recent history.”
DiResta Is a Disinformation Agent
Before DiResta became research director for the Stanford disinformation lab, she was the research director for a small Democrat donor-funded political consulting firm called New Knowledge LLC.
In 2017, New Knowledge received a $100,000 donation from LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman to help Alabama Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Doug Jones defeat Republican Roy Moore in a special election.

The following year, it was revealed that New Knowledge had created and subscribed thousands of fake “Russian bots” to Moore’s social media campaign. The fake bots were created by generating user accounts using a virtual private network (VPN) to simulate Russian IP addresses.
Moore narrowly lost the election after mainstream media reported that he was “backed by Russia.” Alas, Moore’s “Russian backers” were merely bots created by New Knowledge.5 As reported by Shellenberger:6
“A 12-page New Knowledge memo dated Dec. 15, 2017 described the operation. ‘We orchestrated an elaborate ‘false flag’ operation that planted the idea that the Moore campaign was amplified on social media by a Russian botnet’ …
The memo claimed that the work of New Knowledge had shifted enough votes for Jones to win the election, which had been decided by fewer than 22,000 voters.
How? Through the use of disinformation to ‘radicalize Democrats, suppress unpersuadable Republicans (‘hard Rs’) and faction moderate Republicans by advocating for write-in candidates,’ said the memo.
New Knowledge also ‘planted the idea that a Russian botnet amplified the Moore campaign on social media. We then tied that botnet to the Moore campaign digital director, making it appear that he had purchased the accounts.’”
We Must Make Ourselves More Resilient to Propaganda
Somehow, DiResta survived this scandal, and continues to be a leading spokesperson AGAINST disinformation and FOR election integrity, even though New Knowledge was caught red-handed using disinformation to interfere in a U.S. election. Shellenberger continues:
“Why, in the end, is it Renee DiResta, and not somebody else, the leader of the Censorship Industrial Complex? A big part of the reason is because she is the intellectual architect, and most articulate public advocate, of government funding of, and cooperation with, non-governmental actors, such as Stanford Internet Observatory, to increase social media censorship of disfavored views and disfavored users.
But there is another, deeper reason. Like other American elites, DiResta believes that it is the role of people like her to control what information the public is allowed to consume, lest they elect a populist ogre like Donald Trump, decide not to get vaccinated, or don’t accept whatever happens to be mainstream liberal opinion on everything from climate change to transgenderism to the business dealings of the presidents family …
While we must defund and dismantle the Censorship Industrial Complex, the greatest change must happen within ourselves. We must be suspicious of those who raise the alarm about ‘foreign election influence’ and ‘disinformation’ and demand greater ‘content moderation’ by social media platforms. As such, we should take a page from our would-be censors and make ourselves more resilient to their disinformation.”
A New World Order Propagandist
Another aspect of DiResta that Shellenberger does not address is that she’s also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR),7 and you don’t get into that club without some serious connections. You also don’t get in unless you are able to contribute to CFR’s work.8

CFR is financed in part by the Gates,9 Rockefeller, Ford and Carnegie foundations,10 and has influenced U.S. foreign policy ever since its inception 95 years ago. Almost all U.S. secretaries of defense have been lifetime members, as have most CIA directors. This is of crucial importance, considering the CFR’s goal, from the start, has been to bring about a totalitarian one world government, a New World Order (NWO) with global top-down rule.
[The CFR’s goal is] submergence of U.S. sovereignty and national independence into an all-powerful one-world government … In the entire CFR lexicon, there is no term of revulsion carrying a meaning so deep as ‘America First.’ ~ CFR member Admiral Chester Ward, 1975
In 1950, the son of one of the CFR’s founders, James Warburg, said to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee: “We shall have world government whether or not you like it — by conquest or consent.”11 Similarly, in 1975 CFR insider Admiral Chester Ward wrote that the goal of the CFR was “submergence of U.S. sovereignty and national independence into an all-powerful one-world government.”12
According to Ward, the desire to “surrender the sovereignty and independence of the United States is pervasive throughout most of its membership,” and “In the entire CFR lexicon, there is no term of revulsion carrying a meaning so deep as ‘America First.’”
With Ward’s last comment in mind, published in 1975, it’s interesting to contemplate who has opposed President Trump’s America First agenda, and why. Many Americans, even if they don’t like or support Trump personally, agree that taking care of America and Americans’ interests first is a rational decision for any leadership, and they’ve been hard-pressed to rationalize how an anti-America First policy can be good for the nation.
Well, Ward gives us the answer. Those who oppose America First policies do so because they’re working on behalf of a network that seeks to eliminate nationalism in favor of a one-world government, and DiResta is part of that club.
The Weaponization of ‘Disinfo’ Pseudo-Experts
Elon this video goes over it in insta-PhD level detail. It shows exactly how DHS created the EIP censorship octopus. Condensed to 8 mins here: pic.twitter.com/l5EaxAIChD
— Mike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber) November 7, 2023
As explained by, Mike Benz, executive director for the Foundation for Freedom Online, in the short video above, the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) was specifically set up to do the censorship that the U.S. government could not legally do itself.
In 2021, the EIP was rebranded as the Virality Project, at which point the information being censored shifted from elections to that of COVID-related matters, including factual information about the COVID jabs and their potential dangers.
Not surprisingly, the Stanford Internet Observatory (SIO) insists it “did not censor or ask social media platforms to remove any social media content regarding coronavirus vaccine side effects.”13 Alas, this is provably false. As reported by Alex Gutentag and Andrew Lowenthal in a November 10, 2023, Substack article:14
“… Twitter Files published by Matt Taibbi in March … revealed that SIO’s so-called ‘Virality Project’ had pushed platforms15 to treat user concerns about vaccine mandates and passports as ‘disinformation’ and to consider ‘stories of true vaccine side effects’ to be actionable content on social media.
The Virality Project was an initiative undertaken jointly by Big Tech, universities, and NGOs to combat ‘anti-vaccine misinformation.’ SIO responded to Taibbi’s Twitter Files by claiming that his findings were ‘inaccurate and based on distortions of email exchanges in the Twitter Files.’
But new evidence shows that Stanford lied about the scope of the Virality Project and that its censorship efforts were undertaken on behalf of the US government.
As Public reported16 on Tuesday, new documents17 shared by the House Judiciary Committee revealed that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), created the Virality Project’s predecessor, the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), to censor protected speech.
Explains the committee, ‘EIP reconstituted as the Virality Project’ and continued working with the federal government. The Twitter Files also found that the Project partnered ‘with several government agencies,’ including the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Office of the Surgeon General, and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
Still, Stanford and the mainstream media insist that ‘disinformation’ experts were merely conducting research, and not involved in actual censorship. Now, an investigation by Public has uncovered clear evidence that the Project was directly and deliberately involved in successful censorship efforts.
Public analyzed a trove of newly released Jira system tickets,18 the Virality Project’s tipline to social media companies. These tickets overwhelmingly contradict Stanford’s assertion that it did not try to get content censored.
The Virality Project, acting as a cut-out for DHS and CISA, worked directly with employees at Facebook, Google, YouTube, TikTok, and more, who were all signed up to their Jira system. Those companies regularly assured the Project that they were addressing the content it flagged …
According to Stanford, the Virality Project’s work ‘centered on identification and analysis of social media commentary relating to the COVID-19 vaccine, including emerging rumors about the vaccine where the truth of the issue discussed could not yet be determined.’
Yet in its Jira system, the Virality Project expressed absolute certainty about the vaccine, called doubters ‘anti-vax,’ and targeted individuals … who challenged CDC advice.
The Project clearly aimed to control the vaccine narrative and prohibit questions about vaccine safety and efficacy. The Virality Project also flagged swathes of content related to general concepts like medical freedom and protests in opposition to government mandates.”
Jira Tickets Prove Mass Censorship of Vaccine Information
In their article, Gutentag and Lowenthal reviews a long list of “egregious instances” in which the Virality Project “intentionally and knowingly worked to silence and deplatform social media users.” For example:
- “After Krispy Kreme announced it would give free donuts to people who got vaccinated, the Virality Project alerted platforms about ‘criticism against Krispy Kreme’s vaccine for donut promo’ and labeled such criticism as ‘general anti-vaccination.’
- The Virality Project flagged a PDF of consolidated data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) … The Project noted that Google had removed the content after its report.
- The Project flagged an Israeli pre-print that found natural immunity to be as protective as vaccination …
- The Virality Project flagged a Lancet research article about the absolute risk reduction of COVID vaccines, calling it an ‘alleged authoritative source.’ Facebook then labeled the article.
- In one highly troubling instance, the Project flagged someone’s Google Drive. ‘See the following Google Drive links being used to compile testimonies about vaccine shedding, videos showing side effects, and PDFs detailing conspiracy theories,’ the Virality Project wrote … The Project noted that Google removed the content.
- … the Virality Project repeatedly reported testimonials of vaccine injuries to Twitter and Facebook, including testimonials from healthcare workers. Accounts of vaccine injuries, the Project wrote to platforms, could ‘fuel vaccine hesitancy.’
- In June 2021, the Virality Project flagged accurate claims that the World Health Organization (WHO) did not recommend vaccinating children …”
The Virality project also flagged a number of Twitter posts made by yours truly, including one that linked to an SEC filing admitting that the COVID shot is considered a “gene therapy product.”
That tweet was entirely factual. Bayer president Stefan Oelrich in 2021 (video below) also admitted that the COVID shots were an example of “cell and gene therapy.” Yet the Virality Project flagged it as misinformation.
As noted by Gutentag and Lowenthal:19
“Jira tickets such as these prove that it clearly made considerations about content removal … Evidence of illegal DHS and CISA involvement in censorship is a likely factor behind Stanford’s attempts to characterize its activities as innocent research …
That SIO now feels the need to deny key elements of its work on the Virality Project, and even attempt to evade subpoenas from the House Judiciary Committee, shows that the censors are much weaker now than they were in 2021. Two years ago, the Virality Project could operate both in plain sight and with impunity. Now, its architects are trying to cover their tracks.”
Good News, Bad News
Indeed, the good news is that more and more information is coming out about the U.S. government’s illegal outsourcing of censorship, and with it, legal challenges that throw up blocks against this circumvention of the Constitution.
We’ve also had other victories. In August 2022, the DHS was forced to terminate the Disinformation Governance Board due to public backlash. CISA has also deleted information about domestic censorship work from its website, and has dismantled its Misinformation, Disinformation, and Malinformation (MDM) subcommittee.
The Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government is also continuing its search for truth, and will (hopefully) use whatever power at its disposal to rein in the abuse. Its most recent report, “The Weaponization of ‘Disinformation’ Pseudo-Experts and Bureaucrats: How the Federal Government Partnered with Universities to Censor Americans’ Political Speech”20 was published November 6, 2023.
Unfortunately, we also have a global effort underway to not only normalize but also legalize this kind of third-party censorship. In an August 1, 2023, video (below), Mike Benz21 explained this strategy.
The "Middleware" Plan To Restructure The Censorship Industry
1. Middleware = 'censorship as a service' orgs
2. Morphing from top-down to middle-out
3. Regs + middleware = disinfo compliance market pic.twitter.com/lDPqH72HrD
— Mike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber) August 1, 2023
In short, they’re trying to restructure the censorship industry “away from a top-down government-driven model” to a “competitive middleware model” where “content curation” (read censorship) is simply outsourced to third-party organizations.
This way, a “legal” disinformation compliance market is created while government can claim it has nothing to do with the control of information. Basically, what we’re looking at is the emergence of organized corporate censorship. Artificial intelligence is also being employed to “identify and slow the spread of false and harmful content.”22
There’s no clear solution to this threat, other than to continue pushing back against any and all efforts to legalize, standardize and normalize censorship. To vocally object, to refuse using middleware like NewsGuard, and to boycott any company or organization that uses middleware or engages in censorship of any kind.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.
Note: The information provided by this publication or any related communications is for informational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. We do not provide personalized investment, financial, or legal advice.
Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
OUTSTANDING article, but . . .
I think it is a mistake to place too much emphasis on DiResta, she is simply one of many players in a vast, interconnected and interlinked censorship network!
DiResta created those fake “Russian bots” used by the Hamilton 68 group (managed by former FBI agent, Clint Watts) and numerous others, but she’s still just one player among too many.
EIP, The 65 Project, American Law Institute, Harvard’s Defending Digital Democracy Project, Democracy Alliance, University of Washington and too many others comprise this network!
CISA today represents the fulcrum: CISA, the EI–ISAC network, voting systems/ballot scanner companies, fusion centers, voter registration databases and their censors!
[FYI: “CFR is financed in part by the Gates, Rockefeller, Ford and Carnegie foundations . . .”
In reality, the Carnegie and Ford foundations and similar are controlled by the Rockefeller Foundation and Rockefeller family — took me many years to understand and appreciate this! ALSO POORLY UNDERSTOOD and covered by only several investigative journalists is the real nature of the Gates Foundation: actually a super–investment firm and financial influence machine!]
