It is the truth that I was out on vacation at that time, and largely incommunicado, or at least I was supposed to be until these false allegations arose.

It is the truth that it was, and continues to be, massively distressing to me to be falsely accused like this.

It is the truth that I paid (out of my own pocket) for a blue check, because in the new Twitter that gets me 10x engagement, and I've always used my platform to enable and lift up others. That's what makes these accusations, and the follow-on abuse and attacks over email and otherwise so distressing.

I'm standing by those truths.
