STARLINK TO THE RESCUE IN VENEZUELA Musk's Starlink swoops in with free broadband for Venezuela amidst chaos after the US snatches President Maduro. Talk about turning crisis into opportunity! Why it matters? Ensuring communication in a blackout situation spells hero vibes—and maybe some solid geopolitical chess moves.

@RealChrisLangan @Timcast I want to see this guy interviewed

X users sometimes ask me why I’m not all over the alt media, and whether I’d agree to sit down with various interviewers. Question: "[Can you] See if Alex [can] get you on Tucker Carlson?" Answer: To my knowledge, neither of these fellows has ever mentioned my name. Meanwhile, both have interviewed many less notable guests, only some of whom were worthwhile (and many of whom were as mediocre as could be). I don't want to be too critical. On the whole, both Alex and Tucker seem to do a pretty good job given their limitations. But they differ from me in origin and background. Both have had the easy life; first they grew up in comfortable surroundings, never missing a meal - one was the son of a dentist, the other a silver-spoon kid - and then they settled down to establish and enjoy their notoriety as I simultaneously worked hard and risky blue-collar jobs and solved tough problems, ending up on a ranch in rural Missouri where I actually had to do a little "ranching". ;-) My guess would be that if one were to mention my name to either of these gentlemen, he’d pretend never to have heard of me. Then he'd bounce to his next earthshaking big shot mega-guest without missing a beat. That's the situation, and it is what it is. With all due respect, I have better things to do than waste time on it. Question: "Yes it's very strange he hasn't. You'd think someone like him would snap at the chance of promoting someone like yourself who is explicitly America and Western first. Especially at a time like this. Did you communicate with Alex's right hand man Owen when he reached out to you? It would be a good start to get in touch with Owen and then hopefully he could put you into contact with Alex himself and then Alex could put you in Tucker Carlson too?" Answer: I responded to Owen. He seems like a nice young man, and the dialogue may (or may not) continue. However, Owen is not Alex; he merely works for Alex, and Alex evidently lives on a very different planet than the one I inhabit. Alex's planet is a cushier and more cult of personality-friendly planet than the one I'm used to. I went the hard way instead, soup to nuts. I understand the problems some of these people might have with me. I'm what some people would probably have liked to be - a real blue-collar "working-class hero" who has done time as a farmhand, cowboy, construction worker, even the best-known bar bouncer in greater NYC (50 or so bars, nightclubs, and beach clubs over 25 years), "the world's smartest man", the author of the most advanced theory of reality … a real-life “Good Will Hunting” story. But despite my world-class publicity - ABC, NBC, CBS, CBC, BBC, TV Globo, Popular Science, Malcolm Gladwell, and so on - not a word from Alex or Tucker in over a quarter-century. No doubt they’re wired into tight closed-circuit grapevines that recommend preferred guests to them. Alex and Tucker are who and what they are. Good for them - they sometimes say the right things and have occasionally made significant contributions to the American Awakening. Tucker even hangs out in my old home town in Montana (now a very different place than when I was a boy, with cattle drives up and down Main Street), fishing in the same rivers I did, and Alex is apparently a distant cousin. Besides, it's not just them - many others have talked large about interviews that never materialized. Just before the rubber meets the road, they seem to get word from some big shot media potentate, CIA handler, or perhaps just an anonymous lying troll claiming to be "in the know", to the effect that I'm off-limits. In case I need to give examples, Patreon summarily deplatformed me and pocketed around $7K of our money in 2022, but never came up with a specific reason. Robert Lawrence Kuhn ("Closer to Truth" on PBS) regurgitated false and defamatory "antisemitism" libel (Wikipedia) as an excuse to rule me out as a guest behind my back (I have supporting screenshots). Lex Fridman cancelled on me at the last minute a couple of years ago after my wife and I had spent two weeks fixing the place up for him. The Daily Wire spent a good $5000 to interview me in Nashville only to suddenly ghost my wife and me just before hiring academic milquetoast Jordan Peterson as "the most significant philosophical voice of modern times" or some such nonsense. (Yes, many are Jewish or might as well be, but I try not to make too big a deal of it.) And so on. It goes around and around, but the outcome is surprisingly consistent: I often get cancelled and bumped aside by some relative mediocrity. The response to those who request that I be interviewed seems to go like this: "Chris Langan? Who's he? Hey, let's look at this other big important guest instead! He/she's really got something big to say!" (Some do; some don't.) Suggestively, the Western media have come to resemble the central hub of cancel culture, Academia Inc., which never misses a trick in the cancellation department as it scoops up grant money, pursues its demonic indoctrination / social engineering agenda, rakes in the hyperinflated tuition loot, and squirts crocodile tears while swearing to its undying love of "truth". (The media and academic systems are owned and controlled by the same crowd – in either case, just follow the money.) At this point, I find the entire patriotic pundit / alt-right influencer routine almost as tiresome as I find Academia Inc.. Much of it is obviously controlled opposition. Nevertheless, I try to keep an open mind, and where appropriate, an open schedule. I'm presently recuperating from a serious injury, and another problem recently popped up as well. But things will open up again. I'm not ducking anyone. I do, however, have rules. Having grown up in a journalistic environment – my great aunt’s married name was McClatchy (the newspaper family), and my stepfather worked for various newspapers and wire services and won three state historical awards for historical journalism - I know a bit about journalistic ethics. Journalistic ethics says that journalists, and not their subjects, are the ones responsible for requesting interviews. This rule was put in place as a safeguard against conflicts of interest...people merely pretending to be newsworthy instead of actually being newsworthy. If a given interviewer doubts that I'm newsworthy, that's fine (of course he’d be full of horse pucky, but these days, most media types are full of it to the eyebrows). I'd rather not be interviewed by such a person anyway - let him find somebody else. There are other potentially worthwhile routes to be tried. I hope this helps answer your questions.

HEARTBREAKING. RIP to these heroes. Praying for their families 💔

@mtaibbi Critical thought is now right wing

This has baffled me from the start. I don’t care in the slightest if the virus has zoonotic or lab origin. My only thought is that until one or the other is proven, neither should be ruled out. How is this a partisan issue?
