(🔐) NEW: The Coming Collapse of Trump’s January 6 Conspiracy, Part 3: Corey Lewandowski
You don't want to miss this—it's a wild ride that ends with maybe the most useful witness the House January 6 Committee could subpoena now. I hope you'll read and RT. sethabramson.substack.com/p/new-the-comi…
1/ I think this is about a 30-minute read or so. It's one of those slow boilers that simultaneously has individual sentences within it—including early on—that are absolutely critical and shocking but also easy to miss. This happens when one is curating *many* major-media sources.
2/ This article is on a forgotten man in Trumpworld, who may in fact have hit a "trifecta" on Insurrection Eve. On that day he did something I think no other Trumpist—including Giuliani—did. He seems to have been in all three of the White House, the Capitol, and a Trump war room.
3/ The reason you don't hear about Corey Lewandowski much anymore is outlined in full in the article—and it creates a sense that Congress and perhaps even DOJ are wrongfully using where people are positioned *now* in Trumpworld as a guide to where they were positioned a year ago.
4/ This report also connects to the most widely read article ever published by PROOF (or should I say "a series of articles"): on the biggest, most influential "war room" the Trumpists were operating on January 5, which media *will not report on*. It's not the one at the Willard.
5/ That's right, Lewandowski is getting ignored for the same reason Charles Herbster is, Peter Navarro is, Donald Trump Jr. is, Mike Flynn is, Eduardo Bolsonaro is, and on and on and on: because they weren't in the war room Bob Woodward reported on, they were in the *other* one.
6/ It's time for America to talk about Trump International Hotel. No—not just talk about it, obsess over it to a degree exponentially greater than even the obsession the media has with the Willard Hotel Insurrection Eve war room (which was actually a network of onsite war rooms).
7/ Here is my recent "thread of threads" on the Trump International Hotel room, which I posted on Twitter on January 6 (2022).
8/ In short, all the big names central to the plotting of the "Green Bay Sweep" were at Trump International—not the Willard—on January 5. And that includes (via phone) Ali Alexander, who I will argue in Part 4 of the ongoing "Coming Collapse" series is the linchpin to everything.
PS/ Thanks in advance to those who retweet the first tweet in this thread. Because the thread contains my "Trump International Hotel War Room Thread"—which is almost all free articles—I'd love for as many folks as possible to see it. TIH *has* to become a topic of discussion now.
NOTE/ One of the reasons the PROOF community is so amazing is that beneath many an article they’ve contributed new info that was jaw-dropping and required additional text be added to what I'd written. A reader has just sent a *key* photo that I will write about (in situ) shortly.

I just woke up from a long nap, can someone tell me if Trump has already apologized to the nation for falsely blaming the Kirk assassination on the left when—as with both his assassination attempts and 85% of political violence this century per the data—it was a far-right nutjob?
He is a Groyper. The Groypers are a far-right, neo-Nazi cult made up of young far-right males who thought Kirk was insufficiently far-right. thedailybeast.com/charlie-kirk-s…
Bomb threats against the Maryland General Assembly. Bomb threats against the Michigan lieutenant governor and his family. Bomb threats against 5 HBCUs. Two arrests for violent assaults in Idaho.
In 24 hours.
All Democratic/left-leaning victims.
All suspected MAGA perpetrators.
And that wasn't a full list—not even close.
Bomb threat against the Rhode Island Senate President. Bomb threat against the Rhode Island Majority Leader. Bomb threat against the New Mexico Senate Majority Leader. Once again all Democratic victims, all suspected MAGA perpetrators.
There's no reason to have a conversation about political violence based in rhetoric rather than data.
I don't need to note that every bomb threat on Election Day in 2024 was a MAGA bomb threat.
I don't need to mention January 6, Paul Pelosi, or the two dead Minnesota Democrats.
There was significantly less political violence in America before the 2016 presidential campaign. We all know why.
That doesn’t change that what happened today—in both Utah and Colorado—were tragedies.
It just underscores that revisionist history won’t solve America's problems.
Donald Trump transformed politics into an ultraviolent Thunderdome.
He did it for his own advancement, and he didn’t care what the consequences would be.
It’s *also* true that since Trump poisoned our politics there’s been violence from both Left and Right, though mostly Right.
Both Trump assassination plots I condemned immediately and unreservedly. Both would-be assassins were Republicans. The assassin who killed Minnesota’s Speaker was also Republican. So was the man who plotted to kill Pelosi. But there have been leftist assassins too. I condemn all.
There's no lie Elon Musk and his racist friends won't tell to try to hurt nonwhites—or even, I fear, to try to get deranged others to *literally* hurt nonwhites.
And we know these racists want to cause pain because a two-second Grok search would destroy every one of their lies.
If you read the comments on Musk's racist post, it's person after person after person absolutely convinced that Muslims never migrate to other Muslim countries but only come to Europe or America and only do so as part of some sort of invasion. These folks are touched in the head.
The history of human migration, by whatever group—of whatever race or ethnicity or religion—is that sometimes migrants are looking for a very similar place, sometimes a slightly different place, sometimes a very different place.
That has been human nature for thousands of years.
The manifesto of the Minnesota shooter has been translated—and it's all about his hatred of Jews, Blacks, Mexicans, illegal immigrants, Somalis... none of this had to do with him being trans and major media *knows* it.
So why won't it say so?
1/ The manifesto uses the most vile slurs imaginable to describe Jews and Blacks, groups MAGA is hostile to.
The manifesto uses the most vile rhetoric imaginable to speak of illegal immigrants, another group Maga is hostile to.
And it uses 4chan-speak. 4chan is a MAGA hotbed.
2/ Everyone in America knows at this point that MAGA is a fascist movement and that the first group it wants to start treating like the Nazis did Jews are transgender persons. So the second the possibility the shooter was trans arose, all of us should have apprehended the danger.
1/ I recognize that I often say this when I am speaking of extremely deep-dive curatorial research into Trump and two discrete topics—Jeffrey Epstein and January 6—but it is true: what is in this book will shock you even if you believe you cannot be shocked on these topics.
2/ I want to issue a warning to those with sensitivities surrounding the subject of sex crimes and pedophilia. It is almost certain that this epic work will be triggering for you so, do read with caution or decide whether it even makes sense for you to read this at all.
