He naming names and saying they won't dare say he's lying. "all they can say is no comment" He out here letting his nuts hang. I don't know if he's telling the truth or doped up. He's twitching, twisting and turning in his chair and can't seem to stay still. Could be high or could be nervous to be releasing this info.

That you know of *

I know of multi-millionaires that are constantly dealing with extortion attempts..dealing with high level politicians..crazy shyt being allowed and covered up. Its a crazy world. If you think that these dudes can make all types of millions or billions of dollars and are just insulated within their business dealings then youre buggin. Are all of them on some crazy shyt like Byrne? No. But hes certainly not the only one.

Its not as common as you think. I've bought, sold and started companies and spoken to a few billionaires in my life as well as other high level entrepreneurs.

You'll get some Epstein's, Martin Shkrelis and Kim Dotcom types ..but the most you'll get is lawsuits in business or overzealous accountants trying to make a name for themselves off you.

This is the guy who funded a rebuttal to Fahrenheit 9/11 so go figure....

Now rich people outside the first world is another story....

I'll wait for the FBI to deny it, but I bet they wont :lolbron:

FBI already has all their damage control agents on TV "oh the FBI doesn't operate like that, if it happened the agents would be fired!'

Let's hear an OFFICIAL denial :sas2:

This really just sounds like a standard sting operation...

the FBI did indict and convict all those people due to Russian collision...

This op may have been part of the collection of intel that led to those indictments...

the real question is if the FBI (or agents in some other agency we don't know) used illegal means to do that intel gathering...

Hes saying the FBI told him to rekindle a romance with Butina :mindblown:

He said Jim comey knew and requested it himself

Feds do this all the time. It's especially been a problem on the terrorist front where they've got caught red handed setting up operations.

Osmakac was the target of an elaborately orchestrated FBI sting that involved a paid informant, as well as FBI agents and support staff working on the setup for more than three months. The FBI provided all of the weapons seen in Osmakac’s martyrdom video. The bureau also gave Osmakac the car bomb he allegedly planned to detonate, and even money for a taxi so he could get to where the FBI needed him to go. Osmakac was a deeply disturbed young man, according to several of the psychiatrists and psychologists who examined him before trial. He became a “terrorist” only after the FBI provided the means, opportunity and final prodding necessary to make him one.

I'm trying to figure out what folk think is so crazy about all this?

Sounds like standard shady FBI operating procedure to me. They didn't convict her of anything she didn't openly admit to doing, so :yeshrug:

The 2nd link by the Fox News reporter on some :duck: shyt though, what does any of this have to do with Mueller and Trump? Maria wasn't even part of the Mueller investigation and was never seriously connected to Trump.

1. Although a little kooky, hes a legit and respected business man not some infowars fringe guy
2. I think him saying that the FBI allowed, enabled and even encouraged the shadiness to continue probably is standard procedure for the FBI but would that order from Comey even be legal? :patrice:
3. Butina wasnt connected to Trump but this guy is saying she met with Don Jr or had plans to (he was a bit convoluted when explaining this. Something about a convention in Kentucky or Tennessee)
4. He said that Butina was operating from top-level russian guidance and infiltrated the Clinton campaign at some level but was also going after Republicans, mostly Trump.

Idk man its just a wild story for him to be publicly stating this. Apparently Buffett told him to come forward and vouches for him (but not the story directly)

Where is Napoleon and his sirens :jbhmm:

Yeah

Their means seem dubious at best and possibly illegal

Depends on the specifics he gave the FBI

He mentioned Strzok at the beginning of the interview with Cuomo then started referring to people as XYZ and shyt but then also named Comey. Idk what to really make of all of it, its just crazy

1. Do I think most of what he says is trustworthy at some level, though possibly details a little off or embellished? Yeah, so far I do.

2. I wouldn't be surprised if "standard operating procedure" involves plenty of stuff that ain't quite legal. LE bends the rules all the time. But I don't think we really know exactly what happened from his description.

3. We already knew Russians were trying to get in with the Trump campaign. This doesn't really add anything.

4. What he actually knows, and what was Butina just bullshytting him, is not going to be clear to us.

Yeah, it's wild to state publicly but I'm glad he did. Someone always comes out sooner or later, it's human nature. It's why most real conspiracies get some daylight.

How is he "crazy" when he states that he worked with the FBI before and that this Butina situation was the third time he worked with them? He's telling the truth. Stop acting like there's not a behind the scenes to life, you know, where people CONSPIRE (uh oh, there's that word :ooh:).

Crazy doesnt negate honesty though


seems like people are only trying to use this to deflect and obfuscate what Trump and the people around him have done


the guy can barely string sentences together, that's an issue

HAARP?
