I spent time having video calls with LEOs, intelligence agents and military folks over the course of the past 6-9 months. I saw how broken and disjointed and tribal power has become within the world of American authority.

I now know things about how the US government and military work that I feel the public should know.

I could write a book or make a YouTube video. But both of those are to inflexible and risky. I want to spill the beans in a much more permanent and effective way. I would like to help the public understand what is really going on behind the scenes, as best as I have seen.

      We’ve had the largest protests in American history twice over Trump. People do care, it’s just nearly impossible to get things done as they are now. It doesn’t mean people aren’t doing anything.

      The public cares, but are mostly powerless because it’s extremely difficult to coordinate efforts across so many states and distance.
