1. You have wanted to comment on the loss of MIT Professor Nuno Loureiro for quite some time.
Answer: Yes, I have.
2. Dr. Loureiro was a professor who focused on leading-edge fusion research. Is that correct?
Answer: Yes, he studied fusion dynamics within vacuum chambers, in addition to, according to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, "magnetized plasma dynamics, magnetic field amplification, and confinement and transport in fusion plasmas."
He was applying quantum computing algorithms to his fusion research, and he drew the attention of the U.S. Department of Energy on that basis, alongside his other accomplishments.
3. He was the Director of MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center. Is that the case?
Answer: It was, yes.
4. What caught your eye about his biography?
Answer: He apparently won the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2025. https://news.mit.edu/2025/nuno-loureiro-professor-director-plasma-science-and-fusion-center-dies-1216
5. Was this unusual?
Answer: It was unusual only due to the fact that Dr. Loureiro was not in his early career, having completed his Ph.D. in 2005.
6. He had completed his doctoral degree twenty years prior?
Answer: He had, yes.
7. And those who typically win this award have been awarded their doctoral degrees how many years previously?
Answer: Five to ten years. In addition, his contributions were clearly not novice additions to the field.
8. Would the Department of Energy have realized the importance of his progress toward solving the complex problems of fusion energy production that was reliable, stable and virtually inexhaustible?
Answer: Oh, yes. This would have been known.
9. Why did the DOE nominate him for an award that was in many ways too little of an acknowledgement?
Answer: Why, indeed? And why did it happen so soon before Dr. Loureiro's violent demise? This sort of thing doesn't happen to MIT professors, generally.
10. What information is missing from this timeline? What information would you yourself like to have regarding these events?
Answer: I would like to know about the content of Dr. Loureiro's file within the FBI, frankly.
11. How do you know there is an FBI file about Dr. Loureiro?
Answer: There is an FBI file on every American citizen, minors included.
So, he certainly had a dossier. And I would like to know what false reporting was inside it.
Were there any false allegations of espionage? Were there false allegations of the conveyance of valuable scientific discoveries to China? Portugal? Other nations?
Was there falsified law enforcement reporting connected to Dr. Loureiro's attendance at scientific conferences? His travel through airports? His stay in hotels?
Was there false messaging? AI-generated video and audio? And how far back did the false espionage charges go?
12. Why would it be important for you to know the specific contents of the dossier about Dr. Loureiro?
Answer: There are only a few false allegations for which the FBI and its affiliate agencies can gain permission from a judge through a concealed court proceeding to take the life of a defendant. So, it would be important to know whether the FBI was falsely claiming any of these crimes in this case.
13. What are those false claims?
Answer: Espionage, terrorism, extending threats to a public figure, elected official or judge, and capital crimes.
Also, if the FBI makes an argument that an American has an exotic disease that will become the newest worldwide pandemic, they can gain permission to murder him or her through that accusation as well.
So, I would wish to know what the FBI was claiming about Dr. Loureiro.
14. If the FBI was falsely claiming serious malfeasance by Dr. Loureiro, what would that tell you?
Answer: It would tell me that Dr. Loureiro had just made an important discovery about fusion energy, one that he was preparing to share with a wider audience.
15. Is the FBI interested in suppressing discoveries pertaining to fusion energy?
Answer: There seems to be a consensus within the FBI that China is going to be allowed to dominate in fusion energy advancement over time.
This means that any significant discoveries in fusion made by U.S. scientists are going to be transferred to China by the FBI, which will later accuse the U.S. scientists of espionage activities in order to shield the agency from charges of treason.
16. What is the likelihood that Dr. Loureiro's death was happenstance?
Answer: The violent nature of the death combined with the inappropriate "early career" award places the likelihood of a random event at below 20 percent.
17. What should happen now with regard to the nation's loss of Dr. Loureiro, which appears to have been entirely gratuitous?
Answer: The U.S. Congress should gain access to the FBI file on Dr. Loureiro, without redactions, and this should happen as soon as possible.
18. In the event that serious falsified law enforcement reporting is located there, what should happen next?
Answer: The Congress should address the need for a push for a Manhattan Project on fusion energy development by the United States, an area I am endeavoring to address. We obviously need to be funding quantum computing research in as many applications of fusion energy as possible. Dr. Loureiro's specific focus would be an excellent place to start.
And the Congress should expressly restrict the FBI and its affiliate agencies from harming high contributors to the national interest in any sphere. If in fact Dr. Loureiro's demise was justified by knowingly falsified law enforcement reporting, then certain laws protecting Americans should be pursued in his honor, in my opinion.
19. Does the world really need China to be in charge of fusion energy for the foreseeable future?
Answer: No, this would lead to predictably dystopian outcomes for everyone.
20. Thank you for speaking with us this evening.
Answer: You are most welcome.
