“Catch up” apparently means “before, when I came clean, I was lying. But now I’m super telling the truth… also I am CIA.” — @patrickbyrne

Well, that certainly raises questions!

Here are mine🧵

(1) The title of the July 2023 inaugural Capital Times Magazine article is “DHS Domestic Extremist #1 Comes Clean.” It’s 99 pages. I’ve read it a few times.

“I am not a spy; I have never worked with the CIA.”

You said in your recent interview with Emerald that that was a lie.

(1a) Question: What else did you lie about when you “came clean” in 2023? What about the stories you told before 2023? “How DJT Lost the Election” parts 1.1-5… How much of that story was true? (Also, where is part 1.2?) Deep Rig, book and movie — same question? How much of your J6 Committee testimony was truthful?

(1b) Question: The credibility on which you stand was built, in part, on a story you now claim was — at least in part but we aren’t told which parts — a lie.

So, what is the truth?

(2) In your January 6 Committee testimony you lay out your interactions with other notable “election integrity movement” players (like ASOG, Colonel Waldron, Conan Hayes, etc.) BEFORE the 2020 election.

(2a) As a matter of record (yours, multiple forums) you also funded different “election integrity” efforts around the country AFTER the 2020 election — including (again, at least in part) some notable efforts in 2021. According to your testimony, you essentially had Conan Hayes on retainer that year (I don’t think you used the term “retainer” but described the concept). Conan Hayes was directly involved in the Mike Lindell PCAP operation as well as the Mesa County image operation, both running in parallel throughout 2021 and converging at the cyber symposium in August.

(2b) Side quest, but important: The moment these two operations converge happens to be the state’s benefit harm theory of why Tina Peters did what she did. They say she wanted to be famous. The four felonies on which Tina was convicted — the majority of her 9 years — are the charges related to the misrepresentation of Conan Hayes (to 3 ppl = 3 felonies) and the conspiracy to make that misrepresentation (1 felony). She was acquitted on the other felonies. If Tina Peters had been able to speak about her intent and present the jury with her defenses (“not recognized by Colorado”) it’s possible the jury would have reached reasonable doubt on the rest. We’ll never know.

(2c) Question: How involved were you in the strategy through execution of (a) PCAPs and Mike Lindell’s adoption of them, and (b) Mesa County and the credential plan that forms the basis of Peters’ felony convictions? (Note that the convicting fact — that Conan Hayes was misrepresented as Jerry Wood to three officials — was stipulated by all parties at trial.)

(2d) Question: Were you (and your ostensible collaborators) acting on behalf of the CIA in this operation? That is, was it a CIA project to obtain the Mesa County images deceptively with misrepresented credentials>>>which set up the predicate for the state to demonize all “election deniers” in Colorado and change the law to centralize election administration with Secretary Griswold>>>via Senate Bill 22-153 — the Colorado Election Security Act — which could be called “The Tina Peters Act”>>>>that eliminated county checks/balances on the state (at a time when several Colorado clerks were questioning the state’s story). They made an example of Tina, most clerks stopped questioning, and then they changed the law so the clerks couldn’t lawfully question anything — and through all of that, they convinced the public that questioning elections is dangerous and harms everyone’s “democracy.”

(2e) All because of the misrepresentation of credentials — which we know is the key distinction because Dallas Schroeder is not locked up for 9 years. That misrepresentation is the justification for why it’s “okay” that Peters is being treated differently than every other politician in the state (and arguably nation). It’s cruel and unusual and darkly comical.

(2e) In other words, it’s a damn effective op.

Question: What was your role beyond the alleged funding? Was that actually your funding or IC funding?

(3) Peter Ticktin said yesterday on Bannon that Stephanie Lambert wrote the letter that has his name on it, urging Trump to pardon Tina Peters by Christmas. Lambert works for you, doesn’t she? Is she working for you in a government / IC capacity, or in a private capacity? Is there a distinction?

(4) In 2020, you attempted to convince President Trump to take novel executive action on the transfer of power. In 2024-2025, you and people in your circle appear to be attempting to convince President Trump to take novel executive action on (a) Venezuelan regime change (maybe not so novel, lol), (b) Tina Peters and Pardon Powers, and (c) Tina Peters and federal witness / jurisdictional authorities.

(4a) Question: From 2020 to now, of your actions — your pressure campaigns on the President and your criticisms of his responses and all of the projects you allegedly funded (with the $80M you’re claiming to have spent or otherwise) — what percentage of your actions have been in the context of active CIA (or IC otherwise) operations?

(4b) Also, is the $80M you allegedly spent real, or was that another lie? If real, at what point in this adventure did you decide to spend your own money — and was that because the CIA stopped paying?

(5) You’ve never been a fan of the President, and you’ve never hidden that. You said he was sort of endearing at times, but your actions and rhetoric appear to be more geared towards disruption and chaos…

Your old(?) backstory is that, in 2006, 300M Americans elected a Senate and they chose you to root out corruption. But it sounds like now you’re saying that story was bullshit, because you were pulled up to the CIA after 9/11… is that right?

Please tell me if I have these details wrong…

(5a) Question: So, then, what was your motivation? Was it ever peace and rooting out corruption? Or, as CIA, was it always following orders and chain of command in intelligence operations — where you compromise people and then exploit them (which you’ve admitted to multiple instances multiple times)?

(5b) Question: How many of your actions were your own vs. directed? Who was directing you at the CIA? Brennan and Comey were, at one point, according to your Maria Butina story… Was that really a surprise to you, or was that part of the story fake, too? You were “mythical” in the CIA, right? That’s what you just said to Emerald…. So were you working directly with the director as that mythical creature?

(5c) Question: Keeping all that in mind, what is your current status with the CIA? Bad I would assume since you are vaguely accusing the director of sex crimes… Are you a “burned spy”? Byrned… lol.

(6) Who else in the “election integrity movement” is CIA or “weaponized agencies that are engaging in illegal psychological warfare campaigns against the American people”?

War of Stories (ht @reBurningBright).

(7) I have several more questions about Venezuela & Machado; your feelings about the Nobel peace prize & what that indicates about your intentions; the impact of foreign aid cuts on CIA projects on US soil; & more.

The first things need to be first, tho…
