“We’re not rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, we’re putting coal in the boiler and setting a course for the iceberg.”
I said the so-called Big Beautiful Bill would increase the deficit, exacerbate inflation, and increase the price we pay to finance our debt. I was right.
I doubt there’s any way to measure it, but I bet @RepThomasMassie will be the most-written-in name on ballots across the country in U.S. history this November.
I deeply respect anyone who can update their views in the face of new evidence. The last four years have really taught me how rare it is for someone to be able to publicly change their mind.
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.
@dbongino
Remember when the Epstein files came out and showed the whole world that the ruling class rape, kill, and eat babies and then… nothing happened?
Apparently everyone needs a reminder.
So I compiled the worst things found in the Epstein files in one place (no paywall). https://t.co/2mCnnThnQL
Oh! You think it’s all authentic?
Ah. Let me explain the game again.
I’m forced to call attention to what I have done. Then an enormous network of accounts that no one individually cares about explode in ridicule. Why? So the USG can continue to use academics to cover its statecraft.
You see, I am fighting for academic freedom to go back to kicking ass.
I am fighting the U.S. Govenrment’s right to direct and pressure science and academe to falsify the scientific and academic record. I have an amazing record on this. But I am forced to call attention to it. This allows a largely inauthentic bot network to rise up against me as if I am Satan or a Buffon. They can’t figure out which story to pursue. Witness:
I wasn’t supposed to observe that Biden wasn’t president during “his presidency”. Geriatric neurologists were supposed to do that. But they were silent.
I wasn’t supposed to observe that something is trying to hold back mathematics and physics before the Fields medalist letter and the @pmarca@bhorowitz revelations. Physicists and mathematician Professors were supposed to do that. But they were silent.
I’m not supposed to have point out a Lagrangian/Action or equations at the top of my feed when @seanmcarroll lied that I have “none of that”. My colleagues are supposed to do that. But they are mostly silent.
I wasn’t supposed to have co-authored the first article on Mortgage Backed Securities danger in 2001 while everyone was celebrating Greenspan and the Great Moderation. Economists and finance professors were supposed to do that. But they were silent.
I wasnt supposed to call out Dale Jorgenson as chair of @HarvardEcon for trying to steal $ 1trillion at the direction of Senators Packwood and Moynihan while the Boskin Commision was sheepskin washing the crime. My colleagues in that department owed me that. But they were silent.
I wasnt supposed to trace the H1B visa to a secret 1986 @NSF PRA program involving Myles Boylan, Peter House and Erich Bloch to destroy American Scientists bargaining position. The law was supposed to find this. It did not.
I wasn’t supposed to have to point out that the 77 Nobel Laureates backing Daszak and the EcoHealth NGO cutout was cover for Bio Weapons research gone horribly wrong. That was the responsibility of biologists, virologists, epidemiologists and Ralph Baric. But they fell silent,
I’m not supposed to point out that Peer Review in science really dates to 1975 and not Nov 1662, because Merton appears to have falsified the history…presumably to allow for journals to control the flow of science. Historians of science are supposed to be screaming this. But they refuse.
Etc.
And I’m not supposed to point out that Geometric Unity is our leading candidate for a “Theory of Everything.” And has been since I brought it to Harvard over 40 years ago. Because @seanmcarroll is willing to lie about it and the community is silent.
This goes on like this…
The world is stupid weak and crazy on every one of the above. Not by accident and in exactly the same way.
Academe has been captured. And I have the most complete track record on this. By far.
That’s why.
It’s about a falsified institutional narrative being protected by a bot network and some very nasty accounts.
Look at the modal account making the nasty comments. 300 followers not followed by anyone you follow. A bot.
That’s how the game is played. And for some reason @elonmusk won’t put a stop to it yet on this platform. But I bet he will one day. Before @YouTube and @Reddit. And then the hate will dry up except for islamists, communists and a few other misguided souls.
Now you know. 🤷♀️
In an alternate timeline, Trump takes a liking to Thomas Massie, lobbies for him to replace Mike Johnson, the Epstein criminals are in jail, Bibi is fending for himself, DOGE is codified, the Department of Education doesn’t exist, farmers are happy, and the GOP wins in 2026
Happy belated Birthday to the Murricane. The greatest comedy leading man of our time.
So many adventures over the years. One night shooting GB2, we appropriated two fully equipped police motorcycles from the movie’s motor pool and spent an hour chasing each other around a closed Central Park with full lights and sirens. No consequences. After all, we were Ghostbusters.
This 5 month investigation by @tyleraloevera is pretty extraordinary, and one of the more thorough on the ground plus investigative, I’ve ever seen.
I recall back in the day when I exposed Planned Parenthood, people said to me “why would you go after good people?”
Everything touching public money deserves investigation including institutions we “like.” Instead of calling people names, we should look at the substance of they uncovered.
This the song that played during the Bengals vs. Texans game yesterday after Ja’Marr Chase scored that crazy touchdown! It’s called, “Who Dey Remix” & it’s on all platforms. Hope you spin it this Sunday for the Steelers game. #whodey#cincinnati#welcometothejungle
