Details Behind Patrick Byrne Allegations of FBI “Political Espionage
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | August 23, 2019 | Sundance

Posted on 10/04/2019 7:53:28 AM PDT by Texas Fossil

Former CEO Patrick Byrne has given four primary interviews where he outlines his knowledge of a 2015 and 2016 political espionage operation being run by the FBI.

Fox News, MacCallumFox Business #1Fox Business #2CNN, Cuomo

After a review of the interviews, and extracting specific points therein, here’s an overview.

The substance of Mr. Byrne claims does seem to align with what we already know about the DOJ and FBI activity during the 2016 election cycle, including the FBI operations.

First, Patrick Byrne claims he has spoken to the DOJ on April 5th, 2019, and again on April 30th, 2019.  Mr. Byrne states he told the DOJ all of the information he was aware of during those two interviews covering approximately seven hours of questioning.

The current public statements Mr. Byrne is making are not with the approval of the DOJ or any investigators therein.  His decision to go public with this information comes as a result of conversations with a life-long mentor and confidant, Warren Buffett.  Mr. Byrne states he has known Warren Buffett since Byrne was a teenager and Mr. Buffett was in his mid-forties.

According to his CNN interview Byrne talked to Buffett in June of 2019 about how he could be a witness in the DOJ investigation authorized by Attorney General Bill Barr and being conducted by U.S. Attorney John Durham.  After listening to the details, Buffett recommended Mr. Byrne go public with the story.

However, in order to go public Byrne would need to separate himself from his role as CEO of Overstock, the company Byrne founded.  Mr. Byrne resigned yesterday, August 22nd.

Credible? Probably.

These are important pieces in the puzzle of what we are witnessing about the ComDems, the Media and the Deep State. Follow the money, as Rush says.

Note, Jim Comey has responded: “This is not how the FBI operates”.

I’d not bet on Comey being honest.

To the extent I know (and I don’t, really) I think Sundance generally has good info. And I’ve seen several Byrne interviews on Fox.

As per usual, when an individual, a business, a gov agency starts criminal activity, they have to commit more crimes to try to cover up the original sins. The plot snowballs and usually collapses - unless assisted by equally corrupt law and justice personnel.

It now appears the whole cabal will be examined, exposed and dealt with harshly due to the courage and honesty of President Trump and his appointees.

That’s my hope and belief.

Yes, it is a weird comment, but it shows he was “connected” from an early age. (I’m no fan of Buffett, who supports ComDems)

Yes, Sundance is very accurate in his analysis. It is clear he has help in coming to his conclusions. He has good information that leads not follows the news.

I'm a fan, but be careful. He does take off and spend considerable time on some "blind alleys," barking up the wrong tree, and mistaken assumptions.

He is still a top ten in fact gathering and critical analysis. Everything he writes is worth reading. Just take the time to corroborate the critical pieces of fact that support the logic leading to his conclusion.

IMO, he is thin skinned too. He tolerates dissent supported with citations, but keep it "clinical."

I have posted on his site, but have also had many of my comments removed, for no apparent reason.

That does not mean that I often disagree with him. He has been right about Trump from the very beginning. Few people can show that in their history.

He was really good on Trayvon Martin. Did some on the ground work in Miami. The guy has outstanding analytical skills. Just sometimes gets ahead of his skis.

Thanks for the info.

I liked what I saw him say.
