Ken is a fraud and just a mud slinger.
@LM-gg5zh Says:
Reminder that Ken Klippenstein tried to go after the Whistleblower David Grusch by fishing "per chance" a police report about him having had a PTSD episode in order to discredit his recent under oath during his U.S. House Subcommittee on National Security testimony. "Per chance" because Klippenstein had to back track and admit it was one of his "Intel sources" who directed him towards the info thus confirming that Grusch's claims that he needed whistleblower protections because he was menaced for doing his job uncovering illegal SAPS funneling money from other programs. So Klippenstein was at best a "useful idiot" by going after a whistleblower. But more certainly shows he's just a mud slinger for hire. Reminder that 2 whistleblowers against Boeing died in recent months. Grusch had found a bullet left into his house ...

Absolutely shocked that TYT, whom I greatly admire, would hire this slimy POS, Klippenstein, who wrote the hit job article on Pentagon UFO Whistleblower, David Grusch! What's wrong with you, TYT?! Do your homework TYT, and fire this guy before he destroys your network with propaganda!

The real reason he left is about the hit piece he wrote smearing whistle-blower David Grusch, the former liaison for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office on the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (U.A.P.) Task Force that Congress established. In his official duties, Grusch, who held the highest security clearances in the Federal government under his Title 50 authorities and who had been read into more than 2,000 special-access programs, conducted formal interviews with more than 40 high-ranking officials with high security clearances who said that they were part of a compartmented special-access program that was capturing and reverse-engineering materials and technologies from non-human intelligences (N.H.I.). He demanded to be read into said program, but he was illegally denied. And, he asserts that he suffered reprisals for his efforts. He filed a formal complaint with the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community who opened an investigation, found the allegations "credible and urgent," in his words, and referred Grusch to Congress where he gave more than eleven and a half hours of closed-door classified testimony, and other evidence, to the intelligence committees and who provided the House of Representatives with unclassified sworn testimony, under oath and under the penalty of perjury, in a public hearing last year. Grusch asserts that a rogue element within the military-industrial complex has been operating this program across the public and private sectors illegally and without Congressional oversight by abusing carve-outs from this oversight in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. Last year, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer introduced the U.A.P. Disclosure Act of 2023, which passed the Senate but which was inexplicably gutted by key House Republicans before being included in the annual defense-appropriations bill. The pending legislation defined non-human intelligences and referred to them 22 times, and the pending legislation also made abusing the carve-outs in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 in order to conceal N.H.I.-related programs explicitly illegal. The Atomic Energy Act of 1954 is the reason that the Department of Energy is the nexus of the cover-up, and Klippenstein's father is highly placed within that department. Klippenstein's father even studied, and published research on, life in the atmosphere of the moon, Titan. Klippenstein admits that he was fed information from members of the Intelligence Community and the Department of Defense in order to write the hit piece smearing David Grusch, and, presumably, these individuals are some of the same people Grusch has accused of exacting reprisals against him. And, presumably, Klippenstein is on the payroll of the public-private organization (operating mainly within other organizations) in order to maintain the secrecy and to discredit any information about the operation through Intelligence Community tradecraft. Grusch, himself, has said that this rogue element has "a sophisticated disinformation campaign," and journalist Leslie Kean has said that her sources have told her that this campaign's budget is larger than the budget of the capturing and reverse-engineering of the N.H.I. materials and technologies.

What a flucking @sshole Biden has become!!! Well, after January 20th he'll have a lot of damn time to think about how stupid he is, and how the American people don't agree with his bu11shit!!!
@NewerSwagger-gp3hj Says:
Ken was doinf a great job there... that's sad.
@ejacks3 Says:
The Intercept is emblematic of how corporatism is destroying our news, our food supply, our ability to get affordable medical care, and our democracy. It will eventually destroy our planet unless citizens force our government to change course. Governments no longer serve the interests of their citizens but the business and the corporate elite.

I'm pretty sure Ken Klippenstein got all his jobs in media based on his name alone. That's the most "I work in news" name I've ever heard.
@user-sw7lz6cr7k Says:
Everyone is having financial issues and layoffs at all time high! But it Trumps fault no worries! another 4 years of Biden and we good!
@JCIMism Says:
Great journalist that I can never respect after literally dehumanizing the near million aborted humans annually in the USA with his dolphin fetus stunt like joking about the #1 cause of death is being snuffed by our own mothers is clever. I am against outlawing abortion, but the left at large (TYT not excluded) simply refused to wipe the lipstick off that pig to sell Build Back Better bipartisanly with its potential to reduce abortions by 90% by addressing the primary motive for abortions; uncertainty of ability to support a child and career. HOW HARD IS IT TO JUST FRICKING ADMIT ABORTIONS ARE LESS THAN IDEAL, ESPECIALLY WITH HOLOCAUST LEVELS OF SYSTEMIC DEATH?!

From Glenn Greenwald and the Snowden story to one of its reporters working as press secretary for The Squad . The intercept is a joke now
@julianvega2677 Says:
I used to follow the intercept, but they lost me maybe ten years ago. Whatever change they made a year ago didn't make it more enticing. I agree that we are generally experiencing issues with top heavy management and administration. Happening also at universities. Maybe ken could write about that. What is the perceived motivation for doing that? The truth is that ken jumped from a sinking ship that obviously isn't going to make it, as Cenk point out. He decided to make a dramatic exit and advertise his new substack.
@justinroth1613 Says:
I heard a rumor that Ryan Grimm and Jeremy Scahill are trying to find a way to buy the intercept. No idea if that's true but I think that's the only way to keep the intercept going at this point. I hope the rumors are true
@FDR_progressive_liberal Says:
The Washington Post should probably be left to fail. When Trump was impeached the first time and the Senate Republicans refused to remove him, WAPO headline read "Trump Exonerated." Apparently WAPO editors don't have a dictionary, because "exonerated" means the charges were shown to be completely false. They were not. When Perry Mason gets the real killer to confess in the last 5 minutes and admit the defendant was in no way responsible, THAT is exonerated.
@tethergobrrr Says:
As someone with no particular talent, but who’s pretty good at administrative stuff like business analysis and statistics, I’ve ended up in countless bullshit jobs that shouldn’t exist. I’ve given up adding to the problem and am only working with animals from now on.. honest physical work that actually needs to be done.
