Part VI: Dodecahedron
Devin Nunes, Steven Biss, and the Laptop of MAGA Secrets
Editor’s note: This investigation was originally published in April, when Telos News launched and before most of you had subscribed. I’ve taken it down and restructured it as a miniseries for subscribers to binge on through the holidays. As you’ll see, the themes are related to what you’ve been reading in the Bamboo Series, and together the two series will help you understand the birth of this Substack—and where it’s headed in 2026. In this email is Part VI. The final installment of the Bamboo Series will land after this interlude and before the end of the year. Enjoy! —Ryan
VI. Dodecahedron
Minutes after the testicles post, Biss turned his attention to his lawsuit against me.
On the morning of August 16, 2023, Biss started his day the way he usually did, scanning right-wing news sites and posting on Truth Social. He had a signature formula in which he would write a pithy all-caps headline above a short summary of the article.
He started at 6:25 AM with “YOU’RE NEXT” about a Daily Caller article summarizing a Josh Hawley appearance on Fox News.
He posted a few items about Trump’s legal cases. “These are deeply corrupt Democrats acting in concert to harm one man,” he noted about the Georgia indictment. “Truth by any means is the only path to victory.”
He finished up at 7:48 AM with the last of several posts about trans issues. “Muslim transgender wants balls back,” he wrote.
It was the last thing Biss ever wrote on Truth Social.
