Book news!! but also KLAXON: LOOKING FOR ADVICE

Nicho is the genuine article. My brother Matt met him at @roadshowpbs.bsky.social in SLC. A year later, and thousands of appraisals since, Nicho recalls what Matt brought, its value, and that he was my brother.
This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

“How did you get the necklace back?”

“A puppy.”
“She left it to me really because I was the only one with the sort of chest to wear it.”
