In what I referenced, Heidegger deconstructs Descartes’s claim. I have not come across a text where Heidegger accepts “I am” as a true statement, or otherwise discusses an “I am” of his own.

okay, that says where this alleged treasure is; but, can you describe it
well enough so I will recognize it when I see it?

I’ve previously mentioned my claim that both Descartes and Heidegger
would accept “I am” as a true statement. do you deny this; or, are you
claiming that Part II, Chapters 1-3 of *Introduction to Phenomenological
Research* contains an argument that “I am” is true when daSein says it
but false when desCartes says it?
