Yeah I dunno, I’m just glad that the administration is already on it and dealing with this issue by investigating it. Hopefully they will start releasing documents and findings soon.

Barr? Bwahaha!

Here are two videos for you. Watch them and weep.

************************************************************

The longer we wait for evidence that Bill Barr is not part of the swamp, the more clearer the swamps reaction to Barr’s nomination compared to John Ratcliffe’s announced nomination.

Why did the swamp/media go all out full banana to block Ratcliffe becoming head of ODNI, but voted to allow Barr becoming AG? Apparently the swamp/media was afraid of Ratcliffe. Why not Barr, also? Hmmmm?

in the original interview with Byrne, it was all about spying on Trump. there’s an attempt now to make it about FBI spying on Clinton, Rubio, Cruz & Trump. was Byrne told to change his story?

26 Jul: Sara Carter: Russia Probe Twist: A Billion Dollar CEO, A Convicted Russian Agent And The FBI
If what you already know about the FBI’s investigation into President Donald Trump’s campaign and Russia has you wondering what can come next, “make sure you are sitting down because it’s about to get worse,” said Patrick Byrne, the philanthropist and CEO of the mega online retail chain Overstock.com...

Oddly, Byrne’s name was not disclosed by prosecutors in the case or by the FBI. And despite the government’s earlier efforts to paint Butina as a Russian spy attempting to infiltrate Republican circles she was never investigated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, which charged 25 Russian agents with interfering in the U.S. election. Further, the FBI, unlike convicted Russian bombshell spy Anna Chapman, did nothing to stop Butina from meeting with high level Republican and conservative figures. The bureau also didn’t warn those conservative figures she had made contact with, even though they had her under surveillance and allegedly Byrne had been reporting on her during that time. As noted in a column by The Hill’s John Solomon Chapman’s actions were handled differently than Butina. When one of Chapman’s associates, who went by the name of Cynthia Murphy, made contact with Alan Patricof, a major Democratic donor close to Hillary Clinton, the FBI acted swiftly to arrest the entire cell...

“Eventually, her conversations became less about philosophy and it became clear that she was doing things that made me quite uncomfortable,” stated Byrne. “She was basically schmoozing around with the political class and eventually she said to me at one point I want to meet anyone in the Hillary campaign, the Cruz, the Rubio campaigns.”...

Bloomberg only referenced FBI’s “Clinton investigation”, while calling spying on Trump “Russian investigation”:

Updated 23 Aug: Bloomberg: Patrick Byrne’s Overstock Exit Came After Admission He Romanced Russian
By Jeran Wittenstein; With assistance by Bob Ivry
In a series of public announcements the last two weeks, the flamboyant entrepreneur cited entanglements with the “deep state” that included cooperating with law enforcement agents he called “Men in Black” with their “Clinton Investigation” and “Russia Investigation.”...

Been awhile, but I used to follow this guys story re: Overstock.com stock. He claimed at one point to have purchased all the shares of stock that were ever issued and there were still traders shorting Overstock when technically there were no shares to trade.

I'm pretty suspicious of his story(s).

I saw 2 interviews yesterday and there just seem to be too many pieces sounding like a wannabe secret agent.

References to solving a friends murder and "bringing down Wall Street"....

I realize he's struggling between what he can and can't say, but he seems to dangle too much tantalizing stuff (Strzok) out there, and then hold back in other areas.

I hope he's turned over meaningful info to AG Barr.

Yes. It makes sense that they were looking at Hillary too, and that Jarrett was pulling the strings.

I don’t think Obama sneezed without consulting her first.

No doubt.

The next Horowitz report will be just like the first. The body will show significant criminal activity and the conclusion will “nothing to see here.”

If we simply shut down the FBI, the conspirators would remain as a secret society like C.H.A.O.S.

Obviously it’s a personal opinion. Clues: his swings from upbeat/full of energy to teary in 10 seconds; rambling strange discourse; involvement in high flying esoteric ventures; high sense of self-importance (inserting himself as a moral martyr in a double nought spy case that he brings up but can’t tell you about); cryptic references to his “rabbi” that he then spills is Warren Buffet. Lots of highly intelligent, ultra productive people are bi-polar — it’s not meant as an insult. The guy comes across to me very much like Ted Turner.

I’m reading McCarthy’s book which is about as thorough as it can be.

This guy Byrne is not mentioned in it. Neither is the Russian Batina gal, not even Valerie Jarrett.

This doesn’t mean this guy is not legit, it tells me that there’s a lot more going on than meets the eye, and may explain the delay.

This could be much bigger and much worse that we ever imagined, Folks.

Dan Bongino seems to be up on this the most. He has a show that is pretty timely.

He talked about the CIA being behind this, and the FBI not really knowing. I guess we’ll soon see.

Byrne was just a bit player, sounding like it was just a simple ask of him.

If you get a chance listen to his complete interview. He adds interesting insights about Barr and his mentor, of all people, Warren Buffet.

Warren Buffet being the same one that was given a huge handout from Obama cancelling the pipeline which gave Buffet’s trains all the revenue they could want from hauling Crude Oil.

Yeah, the part about Buffet thru me. Also, this guy describing himself as a 59 y/o hippie. He’s a 59 y/o nut.

Did I hear him say at one point that he’s an Anti Trumper or NOT an Anti Trumper?
