I once considered Dan Bongino a friend. I stayed silent for a long time out of that respect. I gave him the courtesy of telling him privately that I was going to speak, so what you are seeing now is not an ambush.
What you are watching is a bruised ego going to war with anyone who will not agree with him, then trying to discredit them so he never has to answer the disagreement.
Dan walked into the FBI thinking he was going to change the world. The FBI does not change overnight. It is full of snakes, rot, and bureaucrats who will never hand over control.
We learned that early, when Dan and Kash put their trust in Steve Jensen. People warned them in public, I warned him privately. Dan was adamant he knew what he was doing. History proved that was the wrong call.
Many times Dan promised things would happen by certain dates that came and went with nothing happening and I’m sure he too was disappointed that the accountability he expected would come never did.
Then we all watched the Epstein interview. Dan and Kash looked broken. Whatever was left of the old Dan wanted to fight the system. The system does what it always does. It chews people up.
He has yet to tell the full truth about what happened there.
Then came the pipe bomber case. That was Dan’s one “big win” inside the Bureau based on the promises he made going in. The public can now see the inconsistencies that we know Dan was smart enough to see on his own. Even if he turns out to be wrong, his ego will not let him say it. So instead of answering the questions, he goes after anyone who asks them, including General Flynn.
I hated watching the crash out. I disagreed with him in private for a long time. I even gave him a heads up that I would not stay quiet anymore, because none of what he is defending makes sense.
This country is already under pressure from forces that want it weaker. Protecting the system, and your own ego, ahead of the good of the nation does real damage to where we go from here. I am saying this knowing it puts me on his warpath. I have stayed off the sideline fights that look like distractions. I have also always said I would tell the truth where it actually matters. This is one of those times.

Iran's IRGC Publishes 26-Page Open Letter To Directly to AMERICANS
I read the entire letter. It is FAR more extensive than the excerpts circulating online.
The IRGC DIRECTLY addresses American citizens, students, academics and journalists, laying out its view of the war, decades of U.S.-Iran hostility and what it believes Americans should do next.
Key points:
• IRAN CLAIMS VICTORY: The letter argues the U.S. and Israel failed to achieve their objectives despite vastly greater military spending. It points to Iran's control of the Strait of Hormuz, continued weapons production, national unity and damage inflicted on U.S. regional bases.
• WHY IRAN DID NOT BREAK: The IRGC says Iran's strength ultimately comes not from missiles or drones, but from Quranic principles, national unity and religious leadership. It devotes several pages to Karbala and the Shia principle of resisting oppression regardless of the cost.
• "DEATH TO AMERICA SLOGAN": The IRGC says the slogan targets America's ruling political establishment, NOT ordinary Americans. It argues that Iranians and Americans are both victims of the same political elite.
• 73 YEARS OF HOSTILITY: The letter traces the conflict from the 1953 coup through the Shah, the Iran-Iraq War, sanctions, Flight 655, the killing of Qasem Soleimani, the 2025 war, the January 2026 unrest and the current war.
• IRGC TERRORISM DESIGNATION: The Guards argue Washington designated the IRGC a terrorist organization because it repeatedly blocked U.S. attempts to weaken or overthrow the Islamic Republic.
• NUCLEAR PROGRAM: The letter calls allegations that Iran is pursuing nuclear weapons one of Washington's biggest lies. It notes that U.S. officials have claimed for 25 YEARS that Iran was only "weeks or months" away from building a bomb, yet Iran still has no nuclear weapon.
• ISRAEL: The IRGC argues U.S. support for Israel has damaged America's interests, reputation and finances, while American taxpayers continue funding Israeli military operations.
• AMERICAN DECLINE: The letter blames foreign wars, military spending, national debt, deindustrialization and poor leadership for weakening the U.S. It contrasts this with China's continued advances while Washington spends enormous resources fighting wars abroad.
• CLOSE THE BASES: The letter urges Americans to demand the closure of roughly 800 U.S. overseas military bases, bring American troops home, end aid to Israel and redirect that money toward science, advanced manufacturing and domestic prosperity.
• CHANGE U.S. LEADERSHIP: Americans are urged to use their votes to remove politicians the letter describes as corrupt and dishonest. It specifically mocks politicians who think they can buy Americans' votes with a $5,000 payment.
• THE WARNING: The IRGC warns that continuing the war could trigger broader political and economic backlash against U.S. interests around the world.
• THE OFFER: Despite its attacks on the U.S. government, the letter tells Americans:
"We can live together in peaceful coexistence."
• THE ENDING: The final paragraphs invoke JESUS CHRIST and IMAM MAHDI, saying Iran awaits their return to establish justice and hopes Americans will ultimately stand alongside Iranians.
The central message across all 26 pages is a clear distinction between the AMERICAN GOVERNMENT and the AMERICAN PEOPLE.
The IRGC portrays the conflict as the result of decades of U.S. policy while telling Americans that a completely different relationship with Iran remains possible.
‼️BREAKING: UVU’s After-Action Report Just CONFIRED Charlie Was Left In An Open Courtyard With No Real Security Plan By TPUSA 😱
Utah Valley University’s independent review of September 10 is out. Read what it actually says about Turning Point, Dan Flood, and Brian Harpole’s team.
TPUSA told the school the crowd would be about 600, that the event was mostly students, and that there were no security concerns and no need for emergency medical help.
TPUSA insisted on the outdoor fountain courtyard and on running its own tickets out of Phoenix, so campus police never got a real headcount. The report says that outdoor site created line-of-sight problems from buildings and rooftops and that there was no written security assessment, no event action plan, no documented rooftop review, and no sit-down walk-through between UVU Police Chief Jeff Long, Flood, and Harpole before the event. Long texted Flood to meet on the Hall of Flags walkway at 11 a.m. That face-to-face meeting never happened.
Orem Police had drones and would have sent them if asked. Nobody asked. After the shooting, the reviewers tried to interview Harpole and Flood by phone, email, and certified letter. Flood did not respond. The report still concludes UVU staff did not act in bad faith. It does not give TPUSA’s private detail the same pass.
They picked the fishbowl, hid the ticket numbers, skipped the briefing, and then would not answer the people writing the official record.

Thank you all for the encouragement and support.
CNN & BBC Viewers had a shock this week - turning on the News and hearing US Director of Health RFK Jnr - confirm the Trump Administration “would investigate the effects of Chemtrails”
So just in case you’re new to this, and only catching up - here is what they have been spraying on us all, all this time.
Netanyahu appeals to Israeli voters by boasting that he manipulated Trump:
“it took a long time to get the US to come to its senses” but I finally got it to attack Iran due to my “influence” over its leaders through “1000 hours on American television”
