Lets go for one more tonight:

I created a custom GPT with all 17,000 pages of the Weaponization of Government document that was just released.

You can use it yourself here: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-676718a7dd988191aff4125d419d1abd-weaponization-of-government-report-analyst

I asked it an interesting question. What do you think about the answer?

Creating a detailed timeline based on the comprehensive data across these documents is a multi-step process. Below is a high-level outline of how the timeline unfolds based on documented events and activities related to the weaponization of government.


Detailed Timeline of Events: Weaponization of Government


2016

  • July 5, 2016: FBI Director James Comey holds a press conference outlining the Bureau’s findings regarding Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email server. His public declaration to not recommend charges, traditionally a decision left to prosecutors, begins raising internal concerns about deviations from procedural norms.
  • Post-2016: Internal FBI debates ensue on whether Comey's statements compromised Bureau objectivity. Whistleblower testimony later highlights a gradual erosion of fact-finding integrity.

2019

  • October 2019: FBI formally takes possession of a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden. Internal discussions begin within the Bureau regarding its potential implications for the upcoming 2020 election. These discussions later form the foundation of the "prebunking" strategy for disinformation.
  • November 2019: DOJ opens a tax investigation into Hunter Biden that expands into influence peddling allegations. The scope includes examining emails on the laptop that reference dealings with foreign entities.

2020: Critical Year of Election Influence

  • January 2020: The FBI begins framing warnings about potential Russian election interference. Meetings with social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter start under the pretext of addressing potential cyber threats.

  • Summer 2020:

    • June 2020: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) partners with Stanford University’s Internet Observatory to establish the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP). This is explicitly stated to be "at the request of" DHS/CISA. The goal is to monitor online narratives and work with Big Tech to flag content.
    • July 15, 2020: Facebook internal messages reveal plans to align its moderation practices with FBI-provided guidance, with an employee noting, "We’ve been meeting for years with USG [U.S. Government] to plan for [election influence]".
  • Fall 2020:

    • September 2020: In an FBI-led meeting with Twitter, concerns about a "hack-and-leak" operation related to Hunter Biden are raised. Whistleblowers later testify that FBI officials indirectly implied such narratives could emerge from Russian disinformation.
    • October 14, 2020: The New York Post publishes a story detailing alleged corruption by Hunter Biden based on emails from the laptop. Facebook and Twitter suppress the story within hours of publication. Twitter temporarily locks the Post’s account for violating its newly minted hacked materials policy.
    • October 19, 2020: More than 50 former intelligence officials sign a letter claiming the laptop story has "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation." Evidence later reveals that these signatories acted without direct evidence.

2021: Institutional Entrenchment

  • January 2021: CISA shifts its focus from cybersecurity to domestic information control. This includes efforts to counteract “malinformation,” encompassing accurate but politically sensitive narratives.
  • May 2021: Federal grant documentation shows the National Science Foundation (NSF) funds AI projects aimed at combating online “disinformation.” These projects focus on automating content flagging at scale.

2022: Continued Expansion

  • March 2022: Internal CISA communications reveal plans for an anti-misinformation rapid response team. This team’s proposed function includes physical deployments to key areas during crises.
  • May 2022: Whistleblowers within the FBI report retaliatory actions against agents who questioned the Bureau's approach to security clearance reviews and its targeting of politically inconvenient narratives.
  • November 2022: Lawsuits filed by Missouri and Louisiana uncover internal communications between government agencies and Big Tech detailing regular coordination to moderate content deemed “problematic”.

2023: Legislative Oversight and Whistleblower Revelations

  • February 9, 2023: The Select Subcommittee holds its first hearing, exposing how FBI whistleblowers were suspended without pay and targeted for opposing internal practices.
  • June 26, 2023: A Subcommittee report, The Weaponization of CISA, details how CISA outsourced its misinformation operations to a non-profit, avoiding direct accountability.
  • July 20, 2023: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. testifies before the Subcommittee, describing how private citizens and journalists faced suppression for expressing dissent.

2024: Automation of Censorship

  • February 5, 2024: Subcommittee publishes a report on the NSF’s funding of AI-powered censorship tools. These tools enable mass-scale flagging and suppression of content under the guise of combating “misinformation”.
  • May 1, 2024: Hearings investigate how executive agencies pressured platforms to moderate content. Facebook executives testify about policy changes directly resulting from government influence.
  • September 25, 2024: Subcommittee hearings focus on FBI misuse of its security clearance process to suppress whistleblowers. Testimonies highlight the systemic nature of retaliatory practices within the Bureau.

Observations

1. Acceleration in 2020:

  • The year 2020 saw the most concentrated activity, coinciding with the presidential election. Pre-election narratives around Russian interference were used as a foundation to suppress politically damaging stories.

2. Broadening Scope (2021–2024):

  • After 2020, the focus shifted from electoral influence to broader narratives like COVID-19 and other political controversies. CISA and NSF emerged as key players in institutionalizing these practices.

3. Retaliation and Whistleblowers:

  • Across the timeline, whistleblowers repeatedly faced retaliation. This highlighted a systematic effort to prevent dissent within government agencies.

4. Current State:

  • As of late 2024, Subcommittee findings have forced some operational shifts but have not dismantled the institutional framework that enabled such activities.

This timeline details a systemic evolution of alleged government overreach, charting specific instances of suppression, whistleblower retaliation, and institutional mechanisms driving this effort.

Unveiling the Truth: How AI Unlocked a 17,000-Page Government Report on Alleged Crimes and Corruption

Introduction

The Weaponization of Government Report—a sprawling 17,000-page document—details allegations of federal crimes, abuses of power, and corruption by some of the most influential figures in government, business, and society. Within its vast pages lies a story of alleged misconduct, from obstructing justice to suppressing free speech and manipulating public policy. Yet, the sheer volume of the report poses a significant barrier to public understanding and accountability.

Recognizing this challenge, I developed a custom AI agent inside ChatGPT to analyze, summarize, and uncover the report’s findings in a way that’s accessible to everyone. By breaking through the overwhelming complexity of the document, this tool allows you to easily explore the report’s key allegations, draw critical connections, and understand the broader implications for democracy.

This article introduces the six-part series summarizing the most critical ...

The Barnes Brief: Friday, October 25, 2024

Schedule: Past & Prospective

Art of the Day: The pride of skill, the mastery of craft, the aesthetic of labor as the anesthetic answer to a commodified, corporatized, dehumanized life imagined for the working class by distant elites. The deindustrialization of America damaged the soul of America, as it replaced empowering honest labor with numbers on a balance sheet of a bureaucratized, soul-lobotomized number-cruncher. Rebalancing the productive economy requires respecting honest work that produces real and tangible value beyond dollars and cents.   

Book Recommendation: Working class rebellion of the 1970s. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8614946-stayin-alive?

Wisdom of the Day: “Work is just living out the script to Office Space. We don’t devalue work; work devalues us.” Gen Z worker explaining the antipathy of the Gen Z to the modern workplace.

Closing Argument: The Story Polls Tell Us

Book Recommendation: An argument for Trump-style economics from three decades ago by one of the most prescient political analysts of American modern history. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/693546.Staying_on_Top

Art of the Day: I don’t know how impractical it might be, but I’ve always wanted to build a home containing glass ceilings and glass floors in varying parts of the home, to immerse the living space into the outer environment, feeling the skies above and the dirt below, with a special fondness for window views, like clear sky or mountain views from above and river or creek views outside and below. This image captures part of that fascination.

Wisdom of the Day: "Why you talkin' about abortion when we can't feed our kids?" Black woman voter in Las Vegas explaining to a journalist why she's voting Trump over Harris.

Closing Argument: The Story Polls Tell Us

  • Let’s contrast 2020 to 2024 using one of the most established media supported polls that abandoned election-eve polling after 2012 due to the difficulties faced in predictive surveying of the modern electorate – due to disparate rate of response from different constituencies as landlines disappeared, do-not-call lists blocked prospective pollsters, and other modern methods of text polling, cell-phone polling, automated polling, and online polling proved littered with landmines and traps for the unskilled or unethical. What we can do, though, is compare like-to-like: how is 2024 shaping up differently than 2020, using the same final October poll of the same pollster using the same modes and methods, Pew.
  • In their final 2020 poll, Pew forecast a ten-point Biden win. In their final 2024 poll, Harris holds a within-the-margin-of-error one-point slim lead. Where are the biggest demographic shifts?
  • This is the shift in margin from Biden to Trump in Pew’s final polls. Men shift from Biden to Trump by 12 points. Voters without any college degree shift from Biden to Trump by 13 points. Black voters shift from Biden to Trump by 15 points. Hispanic voters shift from Biden to Trump by 18 points. White non-Hispanic Catholics shift from Scranton Joe to Trump-Vance by 18 points. Independent voters shift from Biden to Trump by 20 points. Asian voters shift from Biden to Trump by 21 points. Non-college black and Hispanic movers shift from Biden to Trump by 21 points. Black men shift from Biden to Trump by 25 points. Hispanic women shift from Biden to Trump by 25 points. New voters shift from Biden to Trump by 25 points. Millennial voters shift from Biden to Trump by 27 points.
  • Hone down and almost all of the loss of Harris’ vote share from Biden comes primarily from self-described Independent, working-class, non-college, millennial, and minority men, unhappy with the economy, immigration and foreign war risk. Just one more data-point confirming what we’ve been predicting here for the better part of a year. The multi-color new coalition of the Emerging Majority is here, and it’s favorite color is Trump Orange.
