Former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne blasted President Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows and White House lawyers in comments posted online Sunday about a meeting at the White House Friday night with Trump about the contested presidential election that Byrne attended with attorney Sydney Powell and former Trump national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn (U.S. Army ret.), saying that Trump is being “betrayed from within.” Byrne also denied the reporting that a military coup or martial law were discussed.
“My involvement is I was in the room when it happened. The raised voices included my own. I can promise you: President Trump is being terribly served by his advisers. They want him to lose and are lying to him. He is surrounding by mendacious mediocrities.”..In addition, any suggestion if there was talk of a military coup or martial law is also a flat lie. 100% false. I was there for 4 1/2 hours, I heard the entire conversation, that is a 100% fabrication.”
Byrne called out White House Counsel Pat Cipollone as the leaker to the New York Times about the meeting and accused Meadows and White House staffers of lying to Trump to get him to concede, “I was there for the full 4.5 hour meeting. Claims military coup/martial law were discussed is 100% fabrication. Trump is lied to by his own advisers, who tell staff “get the president to concede“ while they stall Trump. Meadows + Lawyers Eric, Derek, GC Pat Cippollone (leaker).”
"Meadows and legal staff led by GC Cippolone reflexively shoot down every sober discussion or idea presented. Their frame of mind is automatic: “we better not try that, it may not work, it would hurt your reputation in the press…“ No kidding, they say stuff like that. Tell DJT."

“this Overstock a-hole DIDN’T vote for Trump?”
I think this is the guy who said in an interview that he didn’t vote for either Trump or Biden. Maybe Jorgensen.
He’s not a Democrat. He’s a libertarian.
But “JFK Democrats” upset about voter fraud? Maybe time to revisit history a bit...
If anybody is talking about a private whitehouse meeting its with Trump’s approval.
We are my friend.
I have been praying. I thought, in my spirit, that God comforted me by telling me that He was at work.
I don't know His plan, nor is He obligated to tell me. But He did tell me (I believe) to watch what He is going to do.
Meadows is a backstabbing snake; total politician, like many “republicans” in office. He and McCarthy are two peas in pod -— pit wipers trying to get a ride across a river, on Trump’s back, ready to deal the death blow as it suits their cronies and boss’s agenda.
“”I think it’s likely he’s an opportunist seeking some kind of aggrandizement.””
The founder of overstock.com looking for an opportunity?? Sure!
“”I wouldn’t dismiss this piece so easily.””
With Kristinn’s name there, neither would I...
“”Don’t be concerned about Trump and people in his Office ‘turning’ on him. Trump has a long reputation of bringing multiple viewpoints to discussions””
The list is endless of people he trusted - some who went to prison. Not ALL in this listing were disloyal to the president but certainly too many!!

I certainly could be wrong, but seemingly too good to be true, usually is.
