Cooper, Whitney Webb and Tucker are all completely full of shit. There are some exceptionally qualified known entities who have their own info and theories about Tucker that go in depth and aren’t of the usual self anointed “ expert” idiocy. And are actually viable. Tucker’s a shit, opportunistic bad actor and always has been. Webb and Cooper are grifters. As is Candace Owens. I had her number the moment she burst into the scene and became the darling of the right, who invariably get it wrong. Like Tucker, she always on to the next grift. Unlike Tucker, she’s been at it since her early teens and had any done a deep dive, they’d have found some of her greatest hits. Including destroying innocent classmates and the reputation of her entire high school, formerly the rightfully earned reputation for excellence . She’s forever desperate for relevance and each time she fades or fails, she reinvents herself, but not before destroying everyone who gave her tremendous opportunities. She’s wicked and was always unlikable and avoided by anybody with a scintilla of good judgment. That ship sailed. Tucker is equally despicable and is more than likely an IV opposition asset. Like the rest of his CIA tied family. As well as a foreign paid shill and a narc bitch.

Whitney Webb is a plagiarist who takes long exposed info , mixes it up, plucks out juicy tidbits, twists them and adds her own fiction. All one needs to do is look at her. She is the quintesstial nerd who nobody but a few noticed existed and those who noticed, made fun of. But being a geek can pay off later in life. It becomes confused with intellectualism and honesty. I highly doubt Jeffrey Sachs, Norm Eisen, Jen Rubin , Chomsky and David Corn.. to name a few, ever were invited to parties, picked for any sort of team aside from dissecting a cat, pithing a frog or being promised a party invite if they let them copy their test answers.. and then reneged on. They get even. Hopefully, they’ll get what they got in high school. On steroids.

When Webb showed up five or six years ago with the Epstein series I could not understand the big "to-do" about her. If you read the series and the footnotes you could see that all of this information had been written before in various publications (she even included Lyndon LaRouche's publication which I'd always "understood" was to be avoided). But readers treated her like this was all the BIG REVEAL with some even saying things like, "oh watch your back, girl", etc.

So pathetic. Cooper sounds like a 23-year-old Tumblr poster — “Mr. MartyrMade” playing the victim. Instead of addressing a single substantive point — he retreats into tone-policing. The posture amounts to: “I will not defend the integrity of my work to reward your endless microaggressions.” It’s difficult to imagine a more feeble evasion.

I initially thought you were latching on to the Epstein thing as a way to grow your audience but from the X comments on this post I get the sense that everyone hates you because of it. Why are the people so committed to action on Epstein so disinterested in verifying the factual bases for the case? Please ask Darryl in your next inquiry

Narcissists and sociopaths love to claim that you're the problem when you ask them to explain their stories.

Why? Because a lie requires character assassination.

Gaslighting is the weapon of the emotionally dead zombies like him.

I find it crazy that he couldn't just take a few minutes to answer your simple questions and instead had time to write his bullshit.

This is kind of “am I the asshole” moment. If he legitimately had a sudden an unexpected death in the family, you could have just given him a couple of weeks and refrained from contacting him. This isn’t time-sensitive.

Arguably, refuting lies spreading moral panics to millions is more time sensitive than giving a grifter more time to obfuscate

I appreciate your diligence Michael. Tweeting away and not replying is rude and unprofessional. There are so many people who believe everything the man says.

Don't devote another minute to it. These people are frauds. How and why Tucker Carlson got mixed up with them is beyond me. Cooper claims he was in the Navy. He probably was - as a seamn second class. Their nobodys who are trying to be somebodys by broadcasting bullshit.

Well done. He's a weird attention-loving dude, a narcissist in full. Never trusted him, never will now.

Thank you MT - even though I have SEVERE EPST fatigue and just wish everyone would stop “squirrel!” Bullshit, we all know it’s there to prevent curiosity in other directions… at least with your stuff I’m reading something with a brain behind it

But what are we missing? Everyone is consumed with EPST and basically ignoring everything else it seems

That’s a flag of some kind

PS - if you put up a 5 bucks tier you might get lots of people paying 5 bucks which is just like lots of people saying “fuck that it’s too expensive to pay everyone on substack a hundred bucks a month” only those lots of people are indeed paying you AND reading you

I wonder if you will read this, hope you do because I’m a fan
