Corrupt neocon influencer was paid to Tweet

You will know the name Dinesh D'Souza from his books and documentaries. He gained notoriety in his college days for his work on the Dartmouth Review.

I brought Dinesh to speak at Harvard during my own student days, and he and I had a long conversation before the event. He performed a service with his book Illiberal Education, whose points may seem commonplace now but which were not widely known at the time. He has cited my work. I want to like him.

And then a day or two ago he posted an attack on Thomas Massie that showed the betting markets now betting against him (that has since turned back around now that everyone realizes the big scandalous story is nothing at all).

The worst part: Dinesh was paid to post it.

How do I know? The words "paid partnership" in small letters on his post.

Grok confirms:
If the only way you can think to monetize a Twitter account is by literally taking money to post what other people want you to say, then you really needed to join my online mastermind program that I promoted this week.

I can tell you right now, I have never accepted and would never accept money in exchange for writing a social media post. That is disgusting and corrupt.

I then saw a lady arguing that Massie "votes with Democrats 99% of the time." Grok, the Twitter/X AI, was called upon to adjudicate this claim, which of course is false. In fact, I hadn't known this myself: Massie voted with Biden less often than anyone else in the entire House of Representatives: just 1.8 percent of the time.

After that, I came across a post by Dana Loesch, claiming that Marjorie Taylor Greene got rich while in office, presumably by disreputable means: "I think it's funny how you accuse everyone *else* of taking money but never explain how your personal net worth exploded specifically while you were in Congress."

But her personal net worth, which is traceable to her ownership in a construction company, did not "explode" while she was in Congress, and her financial history has been an open matter of public record.

Now there's blame enough to go around, and I'm sure my side is badly behaved from time to time, too. Heck, I myself am badly behaved sometimes. But I don't do stuff like this.

Still, the world of influencer-based social media is full of drama: people (like Dinesh) on the take, people spreading falsehoods about their enemies, accounts that adopt the most outlandish opinions possible in exchange for clicks and attention.

Completely drama-free, on the other hand, is my options account, now going strong for a year and a half.

Not in a million years did I ever expect to do anything like this, and I had all the newbie objections (too risky, too good to be true, I'll be glued to a computer screen all day, etc.).

When I first promoted Low Stress Options, a bunch of my longtime followers (who sure are happy now) joined on the basis of my recommendation. The YouTube comments section, by contrast, was filled with people calling me a scammer, etc.

LOL.

Now that over a year has gone by and all I have are success stories and people telling me their lives are permanently changed for the better, those jerks are nowhere to be found. The satisfaction has been truly delicious: the folks who trusted ol' Woods prospered. The people hurling insults at me...did not.

At a recent event at the home of Troy Broussard, the creator of the program, I got a group picture of just that portion of attendees who were Woods readers (you can see little Henry in there):
Those people look happy because they are.

About a thousand people inside the community belong to what I call the "Woods Caucus," and every one of them is beyond happy to be there, aiming for their stress-free and boring one percent a week that sure adds up over time.

Curious? You certainly should be.
