Author’s bio from The Intercept-

Stephen Semler is co-founder of the Security Policy Reform Institute and author of the Speaking Security newsletter.

This institute does not have a Wikipedia article about it, which I find very suspicious.

The only name on their about page is Dwight D. Eisenhower, who I am guessing is not a member of the institute. Also suspicious.

None of their commentary has bylines.

But they do want you to join their Patreon and apparently have no moral issues with posting on Twitter because they’re still posting there despite calling themselves progressive.

Shady as all fuck.
