CISA-EIP Post-Election Suppression of Arizona Audit Speech – De-Platforming of Election Integrity Aggregator (AZ)

Established Fact

[Established Fact – De-platforming occurred; no specific violations cited] On January 13, 2021 – ten days after the election certification – GitHub terminated the account of an Arizona election integrity aggregation website under a “spreading misinformation” rationale, without providing the operator with specific examples of violating content. The website hosted and indexed content including the Cyber Ninjas audit findings, the Speckin forensic report, and the Pulitzer PKAD analysis. The timing – immediately following certification – is consistent with the CISA-EIP pattern of intensifying suppression of election-integrity speech in the post-election period. Whether the de-platforming was coordinated with CISA or DHS actors is not established in the project record and requires further investigation.

GitHub account termination of Arizona election integrity aggregation website (Jan. 13, 2021) documented in project records. The operator was not provided specific examples of violating content. The website hosted Cyber Ninjas audit findings, Speckin forensic report, and PKAD analysis content. No verified public primary source URL has been located for this specific deplatforming event as of the date of this document; this citation reflects project investigative records pending independent corroboration.

The CISA-EIP censorship architecture and its post-election suppression pattern are documented in: House Judiciary Committee / Weaponization Subcommittee: The Weaponization of CISA (Jan. 2026). The Arizona deplatforming occurred within the documented pattern of post-election suppression of election-integrity speech.

Government coordination with the specific Arizona deplatforming decision is not established in the record and requires further investigation. The CISA-EIP architecture’s broader coordination with platforms is documented (see fns 23-25), but whether it extended to this specific January 13, 2021 deplatforming event has not been independently verified.
