This is just what they are admitting.
They have probably been funding it with other $ since 2012

“a strong BUT.”
I think that says it all.

So CrowdStrike’s corruption is basically independent of Google’s corruption then?

believe a guy on the internet or not, but I have a lot of experience with Google Capital and Google Ventures through my line of work. For the most part, the portfolio companies in these respective funds (there are multiple funds in each) are pretty disconnected from the mother ship which is Alphabet aka ‘Google’. But... and a strong BUT... they aren’t all disconnected. Something to keep an eye on out but while Alphabet may have features that Freepers rightfully don’t like, it doesn’t mean the GC and GV portoflio companies are evil and nefarious too.

was crowdstrike one of the “contractors” that was cleared to unmask raw FISA intelligence?

was crowdstrike a vendor that tapped into some of that $6 billion MIA from the state department “contractor’s fund”?

George Soros is also heavily invested as well, if I am not mistaken. I was just at Blackhat Vegas and they were everywhere. And most of the speakers were still pushing the Russian hoax as well.

Interesting. 2015 Google basically funded CrowdStrike, like a mercenary army, to do the dirty work of taking down then candidate Trump.
