Money got pulled for Wardencliff by JP Morgan for political money reasons, not for technical reasons. So, doesn't matter when Tesla said it. Yes, still true. And Dunn's pyramid powerplant idea harnesses micro-motions in the pyramid (interestingly the same ones used recenyly with SAR doppler technique, though that's another conversation) through piezo electric effect.
We know nothing about these things. What IS gravity? What IS inertia & momentum? Why does general relativity not work unless we put our finger on the scale with dark matter? Why does our planet have an active electromagnetic field while many others in our solar system do not? How do the UFOs move around without "leaving something behind"?
The assumption is always that, since we exist later in time than people from the past, we know more than them. What if most of our science is true enough to mostly work, but otherwise designed to cover up the real truth?
There is obviously great incentive to do this, since Tesla tech as it was theorized to work would set humankind free, forever.

See what I said about Tesla being a showman.
Tesla lived for decades after JP Morgan cut off his funding.
If he had something that worked he could have just written out exactly what he was talking about. He could have left that to anybody. He could have sold that.
The energy that Tesla was talking about wirelessly transmitting would still need to be generated. The Tesla plant had giant generators And he still had to pay for the fuel to generate that electricity
Gravity has been well-described since Isaac Newton (maybe not well-explained; it is a work in progress). Inertia and momentum are well-defined in any beginning physics class. General Relativity may not work because it involves flawed logic (like the so-called "equivalence principle"). Geomagnetic fields are thought to require molten planetary cores by which a dynamo is generated by convection currents. Some planets or moons seem not to have them. Others have them very strongly. We don't even know if UFOs are "something."
I agree that knowledge can be lost. We have no idea how to make "Greek Fire," for instance. And there are plenty of examples of modern technology that has come and gone, for which we no longer have the knowledge of its construction (such as 16-inch naval cannon). Our science works. It's not designed to "cover up" anything. The very expression is incoherent.
Nothing sets humankind free from humankind. If you had a credit card with a billion-dollar limit, how would you live? As though you were "free"? You don't seem to appreciate what we have, or how huge even small improvements are when you are close to poverty.
Investment money reasons. Tesla was at that point nothing but a money pit, pursuing his rivalry with Marconi to be the first transmitter of a message. Nothing salable was forthcoming. And Tesla's idea was based on a false assumption that the air was conductive for electricity, so that would have been a show-stopper.
Marconi's radio technology was specifically designed to cover up Tesla's findings, namely, that messages (and energy) could be broadcast from any point to any point on earth, without direct line of sight, and faster than light.
Marconi was not in the least concerned about Tesla. He was the first to demonstrate that it could be done, with wireless telegraphy. Long-wave radio can be broadcast and heard all over the Earth (if you have enough power and a sensitive receiver). You talk as though it hasn't been a reality for over a century. Where have you been?
Faster than light is BS. It is only as fast as light. And maybe not quite that fast, since the atmosphere has a refractive index that results in a slight reduction of wave propagation speed.
But is it true?
I think he also said that in the '30s decades after he built his Tower in Long Island

We now know way more about electromagnetism than Tesla did in his day.
If what he was proposing was technically successful, it would be built by now and companies would be using it the world over.
Tesla was a great showman and he's a great story, but he wasn't infallible
