  • The assigned duties differed from what was expected in Korea.


It has been confirmed that the official title received by former director John Mills from the State Department, who visited South Korea as part of an international election monitoring delegation, is "Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Cyberspace and Digital Policy."


According to messaging conversations obtained by Newsandpost, Deputy Assistant Secretary John Mills will be working in a department primarily focused on semiconductors. This organization deals with semiconductors manufactured and exported from South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and the Netherlands.


Steve Bannon, former White House Chief Strategist, announced during his War Room session on Monday, the 11th, that John Mills had been sworn in and commenced his duties as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Cyberspace Security at the State Department.


Upon the news of Deputy Assistant Secretary Mills' appointment, some raised questions regarding the position requiring Senate confirmation.


While the appointment of a Deputy Assistant Secretary is typically a matter warranting a press release from the State Department, the absence of an official announcement fueled further curiosity.


In the messaging content obtained by Newsandpost, Steve Bannon asks John Mills if it's acceptable to report on his appointment. Mills replied "Yes," but corrected his official title.


Deputy Assistant Secretary Mills described his role as "securing a trusted semiconductor supply chain, starting from the nano-silicon level."


It remains unclear at this time how his responsibilities are related to investigating and eradicating election fraud.


This is why some voices are expressing concern that the news of Mills' appointment as Deputy Assistant Secretary might be leading to false hope in South Korea.
