As he is speaking about accountability to donors, later specifying small donors, he says they are going to realse their “after action” report of the previous election.
Your whole interpretation is moot, as he hasn’t even released the report to members of his own party as you falsely claimed he had.
"Favreau pointed to the fact that when Martin ran for the position after the party’s gutting loss in 2024, he’d specifically criticized the party for refusing to release a similar report on Hillary Clinton’s loss in 2016 and promised that “of course” a review of the party’s 2024 loss “will be released” to the public.
Why did you change your mind on that?” Favreau asked.
“What I said all along, even when I ran for this position, is that we were going to focus on the things that will help us win the upcoming election, right?” Martin said. “Making sure that we learn the right lessons that could help inform our victories. And that’s what we’ve done.”
Martin said it was more important to “keep our focus on those lessons” rather than “navel gazing and looking backwards, trying to relitigate 2024.”
Favreau pointed to comments Martin made on Pod Save America in August, saying that the party was hard at work on the report “to give people who invested so much time, energy, and money a sense of what happened and why we lost.”
“What changed between August and December?” Favreau asked. “I understand there are lessons, but those are not the full report. Why not release the full report? What’s in the report that you wouldn’t want to publicize?”
Martin responded: “There’s no smoking gun in the report, and I know that’s what everyone’s so eager to learn, the smoking gun… Guess what, Jon? There’s no surprise in there.”
Clearly unconvinced, Favreau interjected, “But if there’s no smoking gun, why wouldn’t you just release it then?”
Martin reiterated his previous point, that releasing the full report would be “looking backwards,” and accused activist groups of being “obsessed” with the idea that there was a “smoking gun” buried within.
“Why did you spend the money going to 50 states, doing all these interviews, doing all this stuff, and doing this report in the first place if you weren’t going to release the full results of it?” Favreau asked. “I don’t get why just you and some of the senior [Democratic National Committee] people get to see it but not most of the DNC members who are state party chairs.”

So yeah… You are confidently speaking nonsense.
