Most of you probably know this, but for the few who don’t, these book deals and Netflix deals are how the deep state launders money. They can’t just pay a bribe directly to people like 0vomit or Hitlery, so instead they get a book deal (for books that won’t sell nearly enough copies to cover the deal), or a Netflix deal.

Another popular way to launder money is to pay ginormous sums for a speaking engagement, or to hire a spouse or close family member for a high-paying do-nothing job. Remember Chelsea’s jobs? How many other unqualified lazy people get jobs that pay like that?

Also re money, I am reading rumors that the Chap 11 bankruptcy for opioid producers is just a tactic to keep the money in the pockets of the derps who are running those companies. The companies are not really out of money, they are just filing Ch 11 to keep the lawyers/victims from taking their enormous wads of money.

Not sure if this is real, but the "dirty picture" made me laugh.

If it actually is real, I can't believe that even the derps are that stupid.

Jom Wright, from Fort Worth, Texas and the dim Speaker of the House during the 80s and maybe into the early 90s used to sell "copies" of his memoirs for I think, $150 per copy during his speaking engagements. The book consisted of a few hundred pages of blank paper - how appropriate! He got busted for it, though he may not have suffered criminal charges like he should, I think it in part led to his downfall as a very powerful longtime pol in Texas.

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

I’d say not so simple:

Chapter 11 is a very common business practice, for when debts are so large. It gives the company the opportunity to reorganize the business, and sets up payment plans for all of the company’s debts.

It is hoped that the company will be able to continue with it’s good/profitable operations, thus saving the jobs of the people in that corporation, and still meet the demands of claims against them.

It is not a requirement that they be insolvent, and any competent manager would go to chapter 11 well before insolvency in the hopes of saving the company and jobs. It is what GM should have done instead of getting the government intervention and handout.

Any retirement plan that has stock in a company that becomes insolvent takes a big hit, since shareholders are at the end of the line - that hurts lots of us little guys too.

People who are damaged by the company’s product are due compensation, but creditors also need to get what they are due and workers deserve a job if that’s possible-Chapter 11 is an organized way to do that and overseen by the court.
