Question is...why?
I know....always follow the money.
That...and...wonder what sort of blackmail they had on him.
Lead(death of his business) or silver were the two choices the communist likely gave him.
Blackmail could explain it. Being a (purportedly) “right wing” homosexual, any disgusting mistakes in his past would be fodder for the Left. Or, he may have just sold out after making enough money for himself. I suspect that Fakebook, Gulag and other left wing sites want to shut down all Conservative News and buying out the opposition is a back door way to do so.
