FWIW, I would consider you the voice of reason. I read Steve’s substack, but anymore, it’s a flavor of sensationalism. It reminds me of the sit down he did with Malone and Weinstein. I kept thinking that I wish he would just be quiet so I could hear what the other two were saying. OTOH, he had something worthwhile to contribute I felt.
I think we are all very used to nothing happening and a fair amount of us assume nothing will happen so we spend a lot of time trying to figure out escape plans. I believe in your work, I believe it is as simple as you’ve laid out, and I believe there are many trolls peppered in to actively undermine it all. I do hope you continue to pursue this.
I’ve been readying you for a while now- unaware of your connection to my children’s math program until I saw your name listed on a textbook I was looking at for my oldest next year. Thank you for the work you’ve done in that realm as well.
If I felt like I had connections or could personally do something I would. I think of the teams of journalists pouring over the Twitter files. I understand you can’t do it all. Even writing a FOIA request won’t help you if you are only one person reviewing it. I don’t have the answers. I just want you to know I support you. Keep going.
It's nice to get a comment about the books once in a while. Most people here don't know about that or what that work was about. I lost that battle, though, and it has stuck with me. It relates to this one more than most anyone will ever know.
My son, who joined the Georgia Tech Math department faculty this past year, after getting his PhD in Mathematics from the University of Kentucky, was homeschooled (along with 4 siblings). Unbeknownst to me my wife actually used some of your course materials for him because he was just too advanced for anything else. Kudos!
The crazy thing also is that he met his future wife at UK. She was a year ahead of him. They searched high and low this past year to try to find somewhere in the country where two young math professors might be able to get employment and were finding nothing. They were looking at probably going somewhere where only one of them had a job, then Georgia Tech opened up two positions at the same time, in a tenure track no less, and the two were interviewed within days of each other -- the interviewers did not even realize they were interviewing a married couple. They were each offered a position independently! It is working out well.
For what it's worth my son said that he tries to teach his students (get them to learn, really) in the same fashion your materials helped him to learn.
Let’s keep it colorful. I’ll bring my iridescent paints and broad brushes. Best for complicated canvases. Hope that traveling provides some relief and fresh perspective. 🤗
"I’ve done some tough jobs including taking over somebody else’s actively attacked $12B bond portfolio and steering it through the carnage of the Long Term Capital Management collapse with little help as a 21-year-old in his first year in finance."
Sorry, that just didn't happen the way you remember it. I live in that world. No institution simply gives sole fiduciary responsibility for a position of that size to such a greenhorn. I see narcissism contorting your memory. In fact, this post should be a psychiatric case study of narcissistic personality disorder.
Please cancel my subscription. You should seek help.
I was not solely responsible, but I made every trade (aside from a few repos), usually alone working overnight through Japanese hours. I worked for SVP John Schwartz in the D.E. Shaw bond trading group run by Max Stone at D.E. Shaw. I took over the Asian bond portfolio a few weeks after my 21st birthday in 1998.
I also started an education company with the other SVP in that group, Richard Rusczyk. If I am making this up, I'm sure the world's second or third largest hedge fund would be interested in sending a representative to correct me or speak with me in any way.
During one week in Sep or Oct, I liquidated $5B of bonds and nearly $10B in swaps from a 120x box trade as quietly as possible ahead of BoA's position takeover. I can tell you about the world's most unique (Japanese) municipal bond trade if you like. Lottery bonds where we ran Monte Carlo simulations to determine the rate of Yakuza ownership to tell us how fixed each bond lottery would be.
You're right that it's not a common story. Nothing has been. It is also one you can check in my LinkedIn profile, and if anyone who was in that bond group were to be contacted and asked to discuss that era on RTE, I would talk with them plainly about what happened.
Shaw hired a lot of its traders from the lists of students who studied at the U.S. Math Olympiad training camp. We were always the youngest group anywhere we went. Max was 30, John 31, amd Richard 26 when I started. Good luck finding anyone to contradict any of that.
Before accusing me of narcissistic fabrication, read the comment of USADavis above because the textbooks they're talking about were part of a series written with Richard, who recruited me to Shaw. I can also name a pretty unique and identifiable set of counterparties from that era.
Paranoia can be like a virus, and I have no doubt the DoD and Intelligence are more than happy to seed paranoia anywhere they can, particularly among the MFM.
I believe in your work, I think you are on the right track, I also think you would do well to take a step back and take care of yourself.
Take a step back from what? I have a choice between letting what appears to be a Hegelian narrative competition draw attention to two false stories, and making noise. If I'm not going to make noise, none of this matters or has mattered. I can accept if the effort proves to be a mistake. I have a much harder time giving up without at least stopping to pee on the exposed wiring of the Matrix.
What would King Solomon have done if both women had agreed to cut the baby in half? It’s quite apparent that some observers would see that a NSBRFW ( New Solomon Baby Rule for Wisdom)would be vital.
If there's a "Hegelian narrative competition" and there are "two false stories", perhaps it might help to focus on the big-picture narratives, the falsehoods, and the institutional and historical factors driving the narratives; instead of speculating on particular individuals and their underlying motives?
If indeed there is a narrative competition going on, it's no surprise if individuals get swept into the competition on one side or the other. It might be because they're taking money from billionaires, or it might be because they're being blackmailed. Or it might be simply because of their experiences, biases, or habits.
My bias is to assume good intentions on everyone's part. But I think you're exactly right that there's something going wrong in the MFM at a broad macro level, and you are getting caught in the middle as a person who can see the errors on both sides.
Pause, take a long breath, re-evaluate your place in all this. Distance can create clarity. You might come away from it with a new resolve and more clear strategy. It is just a suggestion.
Or, instead of being vague about what you understand, you could clarify. The claimed position of wisdom does little.
What distance can I have? I'm pushing back against an entity that trapped my family in a cult that withered most of my siblings into slow deaths--the worst kind of murder.
Wait, let me relax and grab a beer...that'll clear some things up.
That's the approach that trapped the humans in the grand ooen air slave pit. Telling the world, "I told you so," doesn't feel productive, either.
When Yakk at the Yakkstack nearly walked away from writing on substack I told him to buck up, take a fucking break and think about it. Same for John Carter at Postcards from Barsoom when he was down because his dreams of being a professor collapsed, I told him to quit with the pity party and write a god damned novel or something. Not that they listened to me or even remember, but I don't say such to be appreciated.
I subscribed a few days ago because I suddenly saw a bright signal of a major truth being uncovered. At least, it was a possible. There is so much fog. When I see a signal, I run there like crazy.
Thank you for the support (and everyone). I could sell investments to fund the past three years of research and writing, but the support is enough to meet the basic rate of life for the moment.
I have also been following you for over a year now. My Dad was a Holocaust survivor and before he died he said, this is how it starts. Its very confusing and its hard to find people you can trust. Keep doing what you are doing. Thank you for all the hard work you are doing. You explain things so eloquently even I can understand!!
CHD this am has a story of an elderly German Holocaust survivor, court ordered to be put in a psychiatric hospital until she has taken two injections by force.
Matthew, I have been watching and reading you for a while now. I too trust you and the way you present things. I also like JJ Couey, but you even more. You are beacon of light in the morass of confusion material.
J.J. is awesome. It's good to have made connections with some people whose expertise/research is different, but where I can see/check enough to validate enough times to trust. He has also changed his mind on major topics in ways that from my view were the sign of an explorer.
J.J. is awesome. He seems to be truly open minded. If he ever sees corruption or something bad in CHD I think he would tell the world. That's the impression I have as an spectator.
My thoughts on those two aren't complete or simple, so I'd rather not get into it. If I wrote ten pages of incomplete perspective, it wouldn't be the best use of my time. I've talked to Kevin by voice just once, and Charles a handful of times. I don't have personal data on them the way I have it on J.J.
congratulations on getting FOIA filed. And especially that its Judicial Watch--someone that has shown tenacity in the past because the government can and will fight disclosure. It appears to me that very good lawyering is required to extract anything important via FOIA. It doesn't matter in my eyes that they did not credit you. Who else would they have gotten the idea from?
I'm not worried about "credit" per se, on a personal level. I tried for a long time to find ways to write articles and get stats work out without my name attached, but meandered into Substack that blew up. But a large part of the reason credit is important is so that people can find the source and that includes the full story behind it. That story is important.
There has been an obvious pattern in people leaving my name out in situations like this, and that extends to a few others doing unique work. For example, the Honolulu local press gave me a wrong first name when they reported on the city counsel head's unhinged meltdown after my talk about the importance of simple steps like keeping windows open and not becoming vitamin deficient. Similarly, Tucker Carlson talked about D.R.A.S.T.I.C., crediting the wrong people with being members while never mentioning the actual people like J.J. Couey doing that work. At some point, this feels obtuse.
I would at least hope they understand what you discovered well enough to ask the right questions. Seems like taking to you directly would be the best way to do that.
It goes back even further than that. In that Jan. 10, 2023 press release, if you read all the way to the end, they say that the initial FOIA request was filed Feb. 16, 2022. The DOD stonewalled the request, leaving Judicial Watch no alternative to file a lawsuit on 10/7/22.
I've just sent an email to Judicial Watch with a link to the DMED wiki. It's like a message floating in a bottle, but I hope it gets to the right people there.
There’s nothing simple about any of this. I wish it was. But human beings are complicated and so often are their motives. The last three years have dislodged many from their moorings and they haven’t found new ones. Who to trust? I question everything.
Much appreciated. I always assume everyone has flaws in integrity. I certainly do, which is a good reason to document as much as possible---nobody needs that much responsibility for perfection.
Mathew: Correct. We are all flawed, but integrity means owning up to our screw-ups. Part of the reason I'm certain (although well aware how dangerous certainty can be) the work you've done is critical to solving this crime and holding those responsible accountable is that all fingers point to the DoD at the heart of the clown show. I haven't taken a deep dive into what Katherine Watt has uncovered, but sufficient to be certain of this; to be horrified. I had thought we were a constitutional republic, but now realize we are a military-industrial-Congressional-bankster-complex. Especially the bankster part, which I've learned from you and Martin Armstrong.
In Kirch's steering committee meetings, every few weeks I would ask, "Is there anyone here who doesn't think this is all a DoD operation?" Not one person would answer. Silence. Completely unlike all other meetings I've attended. I kept asking just to push the button amd see the reaction of silence.
If you ask, "is there anyone here who DOESN'T think this is all a DoD operation" and no one answers, doesn't it mean they all agree with you?
It's been completely obvious from the beginning, that Project Warp Speed was being funded through the DoD. I don't know why everyone is acting like this is news. What's unclear to me, is the extent to which FDA and CDC processes have put any brakes on the program whatsoever.
I'm guessing that at these steering committee meetings, there was a continual focus on preparing for FDA meetings, or coming up with various ways to put pressure on the CDC, or to convince medical doctors that the vaxx is dangerous, or to get media exposure.
If you say "this is all a DoD operation", you're implying: "everything else this committee is doing is a waste of time." Of course they couldn't go on record agreeing with you about that!
But they couldn't come up with any rational argument against your point, either. Thus, the awkward silence.
If they agreed in the sense of enthusiastic cooperation, they would've worked on the DMED analysis and FOIA as their very first priority. And looked into the procurement, manufacture & quality control for the vials, which was apparently all run out of shady Chinese factories under DoD management.
I gotta be honest, I'm disappointed by how many of the activist leaders in this community have devolved into drama at this stage of the arc, but I guess it was inevitable?
Frustratingly this is usually the stage in a movement where charisma begins winning out over brains.
Stop calling it drama. That encourages treating it all like a stage-managed drama. This is reality, and investigation/critique should be a normal part of that. Treating it like reality removes the charisma element, which can be easily faked by offloading dirty tasks (like *cough* maybe making Sage Hana or a few other anons into the attack dogs).
Edit: By now, I'm sure you and I get this, but I appreciate your comments always, whether we agree, disagree, or make a few jokes with colorful language.
Thank you for the edit, but I definitely wasn't hurt by it. I have the deepest respect for your work and I'm aware that I'm commenting on a situation from the outside with necessarily less information and perspective than you.
Your point is well taken. I simply didn't respond directly to this comment because I couldn't think of a productive response.
Nobody is entirely honest. We are all terrified children in the world. Don't put the responsibility on me to be the one honest man.
I wish I had more time to write on creating and raising expectations in each community to the point that there is greater honesty and less fear. That's what we need--every man.
Keep it simple: why doesn’t Steve Kirsch ascertain the whereabouts of Tiffany Pontes Dover. Why do NONE of the resource-rich MFM members investigate her disappearance from society
Indeed. Understand that I have my own list of hundreds of such questions. I have 20k or so pages of notes and writing, including notes on essentially every player in the MFM, the relationships, and behaviors. There are some like Meryl Nass in whom I feel implicit trust, but these are few, and I assume it's a bad idea to put too much responsibility in any one person's hands regardless of trust.
There are clearly important stories going ignored. At some point, I'm going to write up the full story of the Boulware trials, which Steve helped fund. I stood back from criticism of Steve's role for a very long time, and would trusted that situation if he had eventually taken any obvious step of critique himself. That's just one of a dozen inexplicable voids of action that came to mind after he left me out in the cold on the DMED project.
btw, Theresa Long was on with Tucker Carlson last night about new standards for pilots; I know you don't trust her but msm gives her credibility by putting her on tv.
lots of us supporting you and appreciating your time and effort Mathew, thanks
Your calm, reasoned response to the issues at hand tell me that you have organized the facts in the most parsimonious fashion. I can’t say that I understand the issue to the extent needed, but I’ve learned over the last 3 three years what to look for in a trustworthy person. I trust you.
Steve Kirsch blasts out numerous emails, sometimes three a day, plus his podcast of “questionable” guests. We’ve all seen this mind-control tactic used by MSM—keep the masses in a constant state of trauma, keep them engaged and don’t let up, not even for even a minute. To what end, I dont know. Is it to appease the masses, believing someone is representing us, fighting for us so we can afford to lay around and not do shit?
He is scary AF but comes off earnest and likeable. Idk what to think, but I need to exit this MFM trauma train.
Matt...when I need a real persepctive, I come here... I know I am only 1, but I am with you. I liked Steve's stuff...but I find the more I listen, the more I feel it's about him. I really want to tell him to shut up about himself and get to the data (like your data!). He gets lost in feeling vindicated. He might need some counseling for childhood neglect (my assessment since I have done this work myself so maybe I can spot it more easily). I wish you were not in harms way. I wish you some deep rest so that you are safe and cared for. If I cold give you that, well, I would!
I quit Steve last year because I began feeling that this was a labor of ego for him that was distracting from the real objectives at hand. Mathew doesn't like this sort of thing being called "drama," and that's fair, but that's what activity that distracts from the in-context goals feels like to me.
I got tired of paying for updates of Steve trolling Covidian celebs with his endless bets that meant nothing.
One of my last straws with Steve was him calling me a few weeks ago about a debate with a half million dollar wager. He explained he was polling the judges ahead of time to get a sense of how they were leaning...ahead of the debate taking place.
In 2021, he told me that his bet confirms were drawn up by one of his lawyers, and the terms were changed per individual, which struck me as contradictory to his public projections of his offers. He spends that much time moving goal posts for "debates" with his lawyers, but acts as if having one of those lawyers file a FOIA to get at information for what might be the largest fraud and treason in history is just sort of weird. Huh.
I have a hard time seeing these endless bet challenges as anything but trolling for publicity. All the details of it just feel like window dressing.
There are plenty of reasons why a public figure would refuse to engage in a wager besides "knowing they're wrong." The fact that they don't want to make a bet doesn't prove anything about the relative strength of their argument.
Your direct experience here of him gaming the "contest" more or less confirms my point and the reason why no one agrees to these dumb challenges.
Your drama comment is spot on. Ego is damaging our best thinkers. Recall Steve's debut on this entire issue (Darkhorse podcast 2021). He made an ass of himself. Read the comments on YouTube - everyone came to hear Doc Malone and Bret, and couldn't understand who the ass-hat named Kirsch was!
i agree...i don't read his stuff much anymore...its the same old schtick. I keep mathew's stuff in my inbox if I am busy and not enough free ime to read...and then like today, catch up!
FWIW, I would consider you the voice of reason. I read Steve’s substack, but anymore, it’s a flavor of sensationalism. It reminds me of the sit down he did with Malone and Weinstein. I kept thinking that I wish he would just be quiet so I could hear what the other two were saying. OTOH, he had something worthwhile to contribute I felt.

I love these comments and desperately hope to get back to education again one day.
Congrats in your son's post. That's a great one.
The crazy thing also is that he met his future wife at UK. She was a year ahead of him.

That is what is happening. You see, we see, and whether they do or don’t see is beside the point.
If SK or Renz dismiss the DOD Data the baby dies. And so does any claim of virtue on their part.
If there's a "Hegelian narrative competition" and there are "two false stories", perhaps it might help to focus on the big-picture narratives, the falsehoods, and the institutional and historical factors driving the narratives; instead of speculating on particular individuals and their underlying motives?
If indeed there is a narrative competition going on, it's no surprise if individuals get swept into the competition on one side or the other.

Keeping it simple.
I subscribed a few days ago because I suddenly saw a bright signal of a major truth being uncovered. At least, it was a possible. There is so much fog. When I see a signal, I run there like crazy.
I hunger and thirst for justice.
So, thanks for writing and all your work.
Thank you for the support (and everyone). I could sell investments to fund the past three years of research and writing, but the support is enough to meet the basic rate of life for the moment.
I have also been following you for over a year now. My Dad was a Holocaust survivor and before he died he said, this is how it starts. Its very confusing and its hard to find people you can trust. Keep doing what you are doing. Thank you for all the hard work you are doing. You explain things so eloquently even I can understand!!
CHD this am has a story of an elderly German Holocaust survivor, court ordered to be put in a psychiatric hospital until she has taken two injections by force.
Wow. That's horrific.
thankfully she has people hiding her for now. Vera Sherav said she should try to emigrate.
That’s Crazy, pour lady. Praying for her.🙏
Matthew, I have been watching and reading you for a while now. I too trust you and the way you present things. I also like JJ Couey, but you even more. You are beacon of light in the morass of confusion material.
Much appreciated.
J.J. is awesome. It's good to have made connections with some people whose expertise/research is different, but where I can see/check enough to validate enough times to trust. He has also changed his mind on major topics in ways that from my view were the sign of an explorer.
Cheers.
J.J. is awesome. He seems to be truly open minded. If he ever sees corruption or something bad in CHD I think he would tell the world. That's the impression I have as an spectator.
Yes, this is true. What are your thoughts about Kevin McCairn or Charles Rixey.
My thoughts on those two aren't complete or simple, so I'd rather not get into it. If I wrote ten pages of incomplete perspective, it wouldn't be the best use of my time. I've talked to Kevin by voice just once, and Charles a handful of times. I don't have personal data on them the way I have it on J.J.
ok appreciate your honesty
Do you recommend others to follow?
I wanted to check out JJ Couey but I don’t find him on substack. Where do you read him?
He is more of a classroom teacher than a writer, so he streams on Twitch. GigaOhm Biological.
Thanks 👍
Keep doin YOU Mathew!
me Too
As I said in my letter, you are far closer to the source on all of this, and have my total support!
THANK YOU SIR, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER?!
I appreciate your civil tone in presenting your perspective. Well done, Mathew.

"obtuse". Understatement.
Oh, thank you.
How weird. If anyone notified me, I either didn't understand or it was lost in my vast email avalanche.
It goes back even further than that. In that Jan. 10, 2023 press release, if you read all the way to the end, they say that the initial FOIA request was filed Feb. 16, 2022. The DOD stonewalled the request, leaving Judicial Watch no alternative to file a lawsuit on 10/7/22.

Whoa. I discovered what happened primarily in the wee hours of the morning on Feb 15 and didn't write it publicly until March. Very few people knew.
"Very few people knew.". That depends on assumptions I can't verify. There is a nonzero chance surveillance is more pervasive than our map predicts.
There’s nothing simple about any of this. I wish it was. But human beings are complicated and so often are their motives. The last three years have dislodged many from their moorings and they haven’t found new ones. Who to trust? I question everything.
Agreed. There is a great deal of complexity. I try to simplify one corner/element/view at a time, where possible, make a judgment, then move on.
Mathew, you have the support of the RTE community. There is no substitute for integrity.
Much appreciated. I always assume everyone has flaws in integrity. I certainly do, which is a good reason to document as much as possible---nobody needs that much responsibility for perfection.
Mathew: Correct. We are all flawed, but integrity means owning up to our screw-ups. Part of the reason I'm certain (although well aware how dangerous certainty can be) the work you've done is critical to solving this crime and holding those responsible accountable is that all fingers point to the DoD at the heart of the clown show. I haven't taken a deep dive into what Katherine Watt has uncovered, but sufficient to be certain of this; to be horrified. I had thought we were a constitutional republic, but now realize we are a military-industrial-Congressional-bankster-complex. Especially the bankster part, which I've learned from you and Martin Armstrong.
In Kirch's steering committee meetings, every few weeks I would ask, "Is there anyone here who doesn't think this is all a DoD operation?" Not one person would answer. Silence. Completely unlike all other meetings I've attended. I kept asking just to push the button amd see the reaction of silence.
If you ask, "is there anyone here who DOESN'T think this is all a DoD operation" and no one answers, doesn't it mean they all agree with you?
It's been completely obvious from the beginning, that Project Warp Speed was being funded through the DoD. I don't know why everyone is acting like this is news. What's unclear to me, is the extent to which FDA and CDC processes have put any brakes on the program whatsoever.
"If you ask, "is there anyone here who DOESN'T think this is all a DoD operation" and no one answers, doesn't it mean they all agree with you?"
I think you misunderstand. It felt like a group reaction to not speak. Not to agree or disagree, but to not have a stance on the record.
Maybe we're both making the same point here?
I'm guessing that at these steering committee meetings, there was a continual focus on preparing for FDA meetings, or coming up with various ways to put pressure on the CDC, or to convince medical doctors that the vaxx is dangerous, or to get media exposure.
If you say "this is all a DoD operation", you're implying: "everything else this committee is doing is a waste of time." Of course they couldn't go on record agreeing with you about that!
But they couldn't come up with any rational argument against your point, either. Thus, the awkward silence.
If they agreed in the sense of enthusiastic cooperation, they would've worked on the DMED analysis and FOIA as their very first priority. And looked into the procurement, manufacture & quality control for the vials, which was apparently all run out of shady Chinese factories under DoD management.
I gotta be honest, I'm disappointed by how many of the activist leaders in this community have devolved into drama at this stage of the arc, but I guess it was inevitable?
Frustratingly this is usually the stage in a movement where charisma begins winning out over brains.
Stop calling it drama. That encourages treating it all like a stage-managed drama. This is reality, and investigation/critique should be a normal part of that. Treating it like reality removes the charisma element, which can be easily faked by offloading dirty tasks (like *cough* maybe making Sage Hana or a few other anons into the attack dogs).
Edit: By now, I'm sure you and I get this, but I appreciate your comments always, whether we agree, disagree, or make a few jokes with colorful language.
Thank you for the edit, but I definitely wasn't hurt by it. I have the deepest respect for your work and I'm aware that I'm commenting on a situation from the outside with necessarily less information and perspective than you.
Your point is well taken. I simply didn't respond directly to this comment because I couldn't think of a productive response.
After a year of comments, I figured we understood each other. Cheers.
Once again, GM sums it all up far more pithily than could I. Many of us are still Diogenes out here hoping you find (or are) the one honest man.
Nobody is entirely honest. We are all terrified children in the world. Don't put the responsibility on me to be the one honest man.
I wish I had more time to write on creating and raising expectations in each community to the point that there is greater honesty and less fear. That's what we need--every man.
I have some thoughts on this. Maybe I should write a short thing. Thanks.
Keep it simple: why doesn’t Steve Kirsch ascertain the whereabouts of Tiffany Pontes Dover. Why do NONE of the resource-rich MFM members investigate her disappearance from society
Indeed. Understand that I have my own list of hundreds of such questions. I have 20k or so pages of notes and writing, including notes on essentially every player in the MFM, the relationships, and behaviors. There are some like Meryl Nass in whom I feel implicit trust, but these are few, and I assume it's a bad idea to put too much responsibility in any one person's hands regardless of trust.
There are clearly important stories going ignored. At some point, I'm going to write up the full story of the Boulware trials, which Steve helped fund. I stood back from criticism of Steve's role for a very long time, and would trusted that situation if he had eventually taken any obvious step of critique himself. That's just one of a dozen inexplicable voids of action that came to mind after he left me out in the cold on the DMED project.
btw, Theresa Long was on with Tucker Carlson last night about new standards for pilots; I know you don't trust her but msm gives her credibility by putting her on tv.
lots of us supporting you and appreciating your time and effort Mathew, thanks

Your calm, reasoned response to the issues at hand tell me that you have organized the facts in the most parsimonious fashion. I can’t say that I understand the issue to the extent needed, but I’ve learned over the last 3 three years what to look for in a trustworthy person. I trust you.
Mat, I found some information on Unissant you may be interested in seeing.

Steve Kirsch blasts out numerous emails, sometimes three a day, plus his podcast of “questionable” guests. We’ve all seen this mind-control tactic used by MSM—keep the masses in a constant state of trauma, keep them engaged and don’t let up, not even for even a minute. To what end, I dont know. Is it to appease the masses, believing someone is representing us, fighting for us so we can afford to lay around and not do shit?
He is scary AF but comes off earnest and likeable. Idk what to think, but I need to exit this MFM trauma train.
Matt...when I need a real persepctive, I come here... I know I am only 1, but I am with you. I liked Steve's stuff...but I find the more I listen, the more I feel it's about him. I really want to tell him to shut up about himself and get to the data (like your data!). He gets lost in feeling vindicated. He might need some counseling for childhood neglect (my assessment since I have done this work myself so maybe I can spot it more easily). I wish you were not in harms way. I wish you some deep rest so that you are safe and cared for. If I cold give you that, well, I would!
I quit Steve last year because I began feeling that this was a labor of ego for him that was distracting from the real objectives at hand. Mathew doesn't like this sort of thing being called "drama," and that's fair, but that's what activity that distracts from the in-context goals feels like to me.
I got tired of paying for updates of Steve trolling Covidian celebs with his endless bets that meant nothing.
One of my last straws with Steve was him calling me a few weeks ago about a debate with a half million dollar wager. He explained he was polling the judges ahead of time to get a sense of how they were leaning...ahead of the debate taking place.
In 2021, he told me that his bet confirms were drawn up by one of his lawyers, and the terms were changed per individual, which struck me as contradictory to his public projections of his offers. He spends that much time moving goal posts for "debates" with his lawyers, but acts as if having one of those lawyers file a FOIA to get at information for what might be the largest fraud and treason in history is just sort of weird. Huh.
I have a hard time seeing these endless bet challenges as anything but trolling for publicity. All the details of it just feel like window dressing.
There are plenty of reasons why a public figure would refuse to engage in a wager besides "knowing they're wrong." The fact that they don't want to make a bet doesn't prove anything about the relative strength of their argument.
Your direct experience here of him gaming the "contest" more or less confirms my point and the reason why no one agrees to these dumb challenges.
Your drama comment is spot on. Ego is damaging our best thinkers. Recall Steve's debut on this entire issue (Darkhorse podcast 2021). He made an ass of himself. Read the comments on YouTube - everyone came to hear Doc Malone and Bret, and couldn't understand who the ass-hat named Kirsch was!
i agree...i don't read his stuff much anymore...its the same old schtick. I keep mathew's stuff in my inbox if I am busy and not enough free ime to read...and then like today, catch up!
