Continuing on this: the reason this material was in the annex that Kash Patel found in the “secret room” with the “burn bags” appears to be that Durham was unhappy about it. There are multiple versions of the supposed smoking gun email. The language is odd English. [www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/u...](

I’m sitting here with 70 pages printed and a highlighter and it feels like a DDOS by random documents. It’s a framing game — toss out a bunch of stuff, make strong claims about treason and Soros, and hope it sticks before other people can get the actual facts out. RE:

DNI Tulsi Gabbard retweets Roger Stone praising her on Alex Jones. (Read that sentence, IC ppl in Five Eyes) Roger Stone was in direct contact w/the GRU hackers who dropped the Clinton emails, just to be clear. He knows full well whose campaign Russia reached out to. These people are brazen liars. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiewaabphqfzn37cnaz3wwcdhwxx7dxrm2yylxtyea6u62bfxlqlqy https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiaoqoduvveurwaec5rngxosrc3pvfr4wqolzkdc63hcrbeuyvbhyy

Figma was, IIRC, one of the last deals I brought in as a junior VC before leaving OATV. :) Dylan was one of the first people I met when I moved to SF in summer 2011...he was about to start as a freshman at Brown.

"Meta, which after 2016 spent more than $100 million to fund 100 fact-checking organizations, ended a partnership with U.S. fact-checkers." Many thoughts but one is that Meta should be paying Community Notes contributors. It's absurd to contribute for free.

Gabe Kaminsky at The Free Press is shocked & dismayed that a SMEAR CAMPAIGN would take down Friend of TFP Vinay Prasad. So UNETHICAL. Meanwhile, here's Gabe darkly hinting Hunter Biden's Laptop had something to do w/our work. It didn't. We didn't "censor conservatives". But he wrote that we did. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreich57v3yvb2wpnl6cxwyhjjbhw5m23lwjkthawrx342ug2guvrebm https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiecllhpkqdxqzvqf4cvqwnpp63hhgkxtf65cb66oaxyg54nkaoqum
