The Department of Homeland Security has disbanded a board established to counter false information after Republicans assailed it as a vehicle to censor conservative viewpoints.

The department said in a statement on Wednesday night that Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas had “terminated the Disinformation Governance Board and rescinded its charter”.

Shortly after it was created earlier this year, the board became the latest flashpoint in a debate between Republicans who view countering false information as a subjective attack by liberals on free speech and Democrats who regard combating disinformation as imperative to protecting US electoral systems and national security.

The DHS held off on the board’s activities, saying that it would give the Advisory Council 75 days to review how the department could combat disinformation most effectively without impeding free speech or privacy. The council is a bipartisan group of outside experts, including from the business community, non-profit organisations, and academia, that advises Mayorkas.
