Counter-Terrorism "Expert" Fooled by AI Video
The title says it all ...
This post is being published in tandem with my identical X post HERE.

Sarah Adams publicly accused me this morning of “engaging with elements of the Taliban,” “selling out Americans,” and “lining my pockets.” Those claims are 100% false, defamatory, and dangerously irresponsible.
For context, here’s what actually happened …
Somebody who presents herself as a Counter-Terrorism Subject Matter Expert fell for a fake AI-generated video of Hamza bin Laden - a video I professionally and politely debunked using verifiable evidence. That person was Sarah Adams.
Her source, Guido, publicly claimed he had “exclusive current footage” of Hamza. In reality, the video was cropped to hide a Kling AI watermark. The original, unedited version - watermark and all - was later posted by a user in the Netherlands, confirming precisely what I had already explained: the clip was synthetic and easily exposed as such.
When I pointed this out, Sarah insisted the video was legitimate. She chastised me for questioning it, stated its authenticity was not up for debate, and told me to “fall in line.” After I presented a second detailed breakdown proving the clip was AI, the post disappeared and she blocked me. Several of her own teammates publicly apologized for doubting my analysis. Their statements follow at the end of this post.
Rather than acknowledging the mistake, she escalated - and this morning published a statement claiming I’m “engaging with elements of the Taliban” and “selling out Americans.”
These are direct allegations of criminal activity, terrorist affiliation, and betrayal of the United States - all of which are provably false. I have never engaged with the Taliban or any hostile actor in any capacity. I have never “sold out Americans.” I have never worked with, or supported and terrorist organization.
Her statements were published as fact, not opinion. That crosses a bright legal line.
My attorneys have archived her posts. She is free to retract them publicly. If she chooses not to, the matter will proceed accordingly.
My work has always been transparent, patriotic, and rooted in protecting Americans from real threats - including the threat of disinformation, which she unfortunately amplified by treating an AI deepfake as genuine.
I had already told Khalid Muhammad from CommandEleven last week that I was moving on from this situation. But when a public figure fabricates accusations of terrorist involvement because she was embarrassed by falling for a deepfake, the record must be corrected.
I’ll continue doing my work with integrity. The facts speak for themselves.

Public apologies made by Sarah’s “teammates” …









Chris I saw her X post this morning and didn’t believe it for one second. I don’t know Sarah like I know you and only first saw her on SR. By all appearances, she holds the same love for and loyalty to America as we do, but she has made a grave mistake, especially for someone of her level of intelligence (no pun intended). Chris Heaven, I stand with you buddy and I will bet that every last SDN supporter is with me. 🇺🇸
Thanks, just figured I'd pass on her scolding me, just wish she would quit saying "like" and "right" so annoying.
