      Amusingly enough, a few days ago, Tim Pool claimed he was going to sue the Harris campaign for defamation for claiming he advocated the death penalty when it turned out that there was a longer version of the video preserved elsewhere that he didn’t post to YouTube where he does exactly that- saying he supports it for treason.

        Hey now do you even know how much a skate park costs. Or how much a man has to pay to keep in all that beanie drip?!

        LOL but seriously yeah I watch that last night dude is full of shit and dead to rights cooked. As Sam put it any lawyer that takes the case that doesn’t require payment up front is only getting what he deserves. Old shallow pool doesn’t have a leg to stand on in any lawsuit.

          Don’t forget, he wears the beanie so no one will recognize him, it’s not at all because he doesn’t want to let folks see his head.

              Someone snatched it off his head once and he got all mad that . . People would recognize him? I guess?

              There’s an episode of some more news about him that touched on it.

      It’s legal, but any income over a certain amount from abroad requires you to register. Guess what they never did. Hence why this legal case is happening.

        I’m looking forward to jail time for not registering as foreign agents.

      In the allegations, the company that paid them lied to them about where the money came from, so they unfortunately have plausible deniability

        Apparently they were googling “time in moscow” when following up on an invoice per Ryan McBeth so they are guilty as fuck.

          Yeah the company founders are fucked fucked, but the grifters they hired will likely walk away with little impact.

        Lol “plausible”… Why don’t we let a jury decide that? Let’s hook these traitors up with some charges already.

        I don’t believe them for a second, given the specific nature of their anti-Ukraine propaganda.

        We’re gonna need proof of that since I don’t trust any of these jokers to tell the truth. It’ll come out in the trial.
