Ex-Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne’s CNN Interview Is An Absolute Crapshow

You guys… there is SO much going on here.

The CEO of Overstock just resigned over allegations he’s involved in Russian spying or something or other. It’s insanity.

Even more insane? His interview with Chris Cuomo.

I mean… I don’t even know what to make of this.

Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne says the FBI in 2015/2016 reached out to him and got him to help with law enforcement activities that turned out to be political espionage against Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, Marco Rubio, and Ted Cruz

This is out of CONTROL.

Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne claims the FBI let the Russia scandal develop so they could “shake it up and … spread it all over the [GOP]”

I’m inclined to think this guy is an Alex-Jones-style nutjob. But things are weird lately, folks. Maybe he’s entirely right. I honestly can’t say I know anything for certain anymore.

All I know is that covering this kind of stuff is equally exhausting and confusing. I need more coffee.
