Wow! I wasn't expecting that Byrne being a CFR member would check out. Don't get me wrong, I'm not thinking like some of these QAnons are now that he's a "Deep State" chaos agent, but it does add to the weirdness that it Patrick M. Byrne. He's gotta be about the most bizarre character I can think of.

I did not know that Patrick is Warren Buffet's godson, Michael. However, I do know about his relationship with Maria Butina.

Jfc. That is interesting Michael. Now I am really curious about Byrne. He very well may have been targeted by Butina.

Thank you.

I actually think he identified a real problem with naked short selling. I saw it going on with companies doing death spiral financings. I even lost some money on some speculative "investments" in a company that I later realized was involved in one of those called a ""PIPE financing. That was before I realized that kind of speculative investment was just gambling and I'd have had better odds in Vegas. I don't know whether Overstock was really being victimized or Byrne was using it as an excuse, but it was a real problem IMO. Somewhere though he sure seems to have gone off the rails. He claimed he was cooperating with the "men in black" all through his affair with Butina, but he also claims he cooperated them to set Hilary Clinton up to accept a huge bribe as some ploy to allow Obama to control Hilary which sounds like absolute horseshit to me. He's a freak show.

Putin is our generation's Satan. Flynn works for Putin. That's the real Satan Gate.
