And surprisingly, there was never really an effort to figure out what the government of Israel's involvement was in this matter.

Yes, a person who, his name's Jake Novak, I think he currently works for Real America's Voice, and he sent text messages.

Wait, what?

Yeah, that's the name of the official, and he sent messages to Scott Adams saying that he was involved in this scheme that was later deemed a criminal scheme to shake down my family based on these false allegations.

He got a television show.

I have attempted to figure out because obviously I still have a lot of unanswered questions about why he was working for a foreign government and trying to shake down my family.

Well, some have shared with me their concern that this was a consequence of some of the votes and positions I took in the Congress.

I represented one of the most military-heavy districts in the entire country.

I think number one.

Yeah, right up there.

And

I saw these wars in the Middle East that my neighbors and friends had fought in as unworthy of our best, unworthy of the disruptions in parenting and the divorces and the injuries.

And so I took the position that we should be less entangled in these things.

And I think that really shocked a number of people who thought I would be more of a neocon coming from the district I came from.

And I think that, you know, with like the Israel influence operation, it's always fire and ice.

It's always outreach followed by consequence and then outreach and then consequence.

And, you know, you decline those offers when you don't feel they're appropriate.

And then lo and behold, it's like greenblatt on the other side of the

operation call you an anti-semite this just happened to you
