https://bit.ly/3Mh2xmI - 🔍 "Perception management", a strategy for influencing foreign opinions, has been reborn in the Pentagon's new Influence and Perception Management Office (IPMO). Initiated during the Reagan era, the tactic came under scrutiny for its potential to spread disinformation, including to domestic audiences. Today, the IPMO seeks to counter foreign disinformation, but its operations remain largely shrouded in secrecy. #PerceptionManagement #IPMO #NationalSecurity 💼 The office's responsibilities involve coordinating military counter-disinformation efforts and could include U.S. propaganda abroad. Its strategies aim to influence foreign leaders' decisions to benefit U.S. interests. The IPMO's acting director, James Holly, brings an extensive intelligence background to the role, strengthening its covert operations. #JamesHolly #USPropaganda #CounterDisinformation 📡 Despite its significant role, the Pentagon never publicly announced the IPMO's establishment. Budget documents reveal the office was created as a response to the shifting geopolitical environment, from counterterrorism to great power competition. The budget, however, doesn't specify the office's funding. #Pentagon #GeopoliticalShift #GreatPowerCompetition 🔏 Perception management isn't just about countering foreign propaganda, but also about advancing the U.S.'s own narrative. Critics of perception management worry about its potential misuse to manipulate U.S. citizens into supporting government policies. The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act, passed in 2012, now allows such communication to be circulated domestically. #PerceptionManagement #SmithMundtAct 🌐 As the global war on terror winds down, the Pentagon is focusing on great power adversaries like Russia and China. In response to increasing disinformation campaigns, offices tasked with combating disinformation have sprung up across the U.S. government. The Pentagon's IPMO distinguishes itself with its level of secrecy and highly classified work. #Pentagon #Disinformation #GlobalPolitics 💻 The IPMO's strategic position within the Pentagon hierarchy indicates its work extends beyond messaging to intelligence. Fast detection and counteraction of disinformation are critical in today's digital age. Yet, the Defense Department has not responded to requests for comment on its counter-disinformation efforts.

Posted @withregram • @cspan “That’s controlled unclassified information,” Pentagon spokesman Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder told reporters when asked Thursday about security preparations for Santa’s upcoming travel from Dec. 24–25.

“But I can assure you that we will ensure that Santa gets wherever he needs to go safely and securely,” he said, directing further inquiries to North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).

E-Mails were censored in part dealing with Donald’s Shakedown of the Ukraine president.

Look, if Donald was “perfect” and not committing extortion then why were these e-mails so heavily censored?

#PayAttentionPeople, these are #dangerous moves in our #democracy #VoteForChange ・・・ The #WhiteHouse is taking advantage of a loophole to install loyalists to President Donald Trump in acting senior roles at the #Pentagon, effectively skirting the #Senate confirmation process.⁣ ⁣ While the number of vacancies isn't new — one-third of the #DefenseDepartment's 60 Senate-confirmed positions are filled on a temporary basis — the White House in recent months has been sending over people to fill open spots, as opposed to the more traditional method of tapping people within the Pentagon.⁣ ⁣ The White House on Monday announced that it was assigning #MichaelKratsios, a 33-year-old White House chief technology officer, as the head of research and engineering for the entire #DoD. Kratsios, who has a bachelor's degree in political science, is replacing #MichaelGriffin, a former #NASA administrator with a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering.⁣ ⁣ The administration has also discussed installing #AnthonyTata, the controversial Fox News regular who has been nominated to be the Pentagon’s top policy official, in a different senior DoD role on an acting basis, according to an official familiar with the discussions. The move would head off what is expected to be a bruising confirmation hearing focused on now-deleted Islamophobic tweets.⁣ ⁣ Experts and #Democratic lawmakers alike decried the campaign to root out those seen as disloyal and replace them with #Trumpacolytes, some of whom are underqualified. They worry that a climate that values #loyalty over #expertise scares away the best prospects and injects politics into an organization that tries to operate above #partisanship.

That nut in office #DGAF about ppl suffering. Never mind the fact that the island is part of #America & he's ignoring #American #citizens. I want us to really start thinking as one. There is no difference between us. Those we can think of is just #ego. #WeAreONE #PuertoRican #PuertoRicans #Repost from @4biddenknowledge - https://www.gofundme.com/hurricane-maria-disaster-fund-4biddenknowledge #Help me get #supplies to #PuertoRico. 37,000 pounds of supplies already delivered. FOLLOW THE LINK IN MY BIO Rp @freedom_faction Puerto Rico’s electricity systems are badly damaged after #HurricaneMaria, and nearly half the #US territory’s residents lack #drinking #water following the #storm, the #DefenseDepartment reported Tuesday. The Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority is “slowly restoring power to customers,” according to the most recent update, but 80 percent of the island’s #electricity transmission lines and 100 percent of its distribution system are #damaged. Transmission lines move electricity across long distances, while distribution lines deliver it to homes and businesses. Only 11 of the #island’s 69 #hospitals have fuel or #power. And 44 percent of Puerto Rico’s 3.5 million residents are still without clean drinking water, the #Pentagon said. In the U.S. #VirginIslands, power has been restored to a key water-production plant, which is now back in operation. The Defense Department said it expects a total of 240 aircraft to arrive in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands over the next 24 hours. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (#FEMA) is shipping up to 350 satellite telephones to the islands to assist officials on the ground. Puerto Rico officials have urged the federal #government to speed up its relief efforts after #Maria, which hit the island last week as a major #hurricane. “We need more help. We need more help with #resources. We need more help with people being deployed so that we can get logistical support elsewhere,” Gov. @RicardoRossello (D) said Tuesday morning. Help me get supplies to Puerto Rico. 37,000 pounds of supplies already delivered. FOLLOW THE LINK IN MY BIO https://www.gofundme.com/hurricane-maria-disaster-fund-4biddenknowledge
