Did he have the Loch Ness monster in his grasp? I may have been a witness.

"I know nothing about this guy. Is this how he is normally or is this completely out of character?"

This isn't Byrne's first rodeo. The investor world will remember "Deep Capture", an earlier Byrne adventure into the land where conspiracy theory flourishes.

In the world of Patrick Byrne, CEO of flailing Overstock.com (NYSE:OSTK), his paid stalkers, and his nutty followers, anything and everything is evidence of a massive conspiracy on Wall Street. Involved in this massive conspiracy are “captured” journalists who “take orders” from hedge funds and help manipulate the stockmarket.

Remember the days when Byrne was claiming that his company’s poor stock price was a direct result of naked short selling of the company stock? And when that allegation couldn’t be proven and consistent poor financial results (even poor after the accounting department did a little magic on them each quarter) seemed to be the real reason the company’s stock hasn’t done well…. then the real story became the massive conspiracy on Wall Street.

And this week, “proof” of the conspiracy was presented by paid stalker Judd Bagley. The proof? The fact that people are connected on Facebook. Yes, you read that right. The very fact that people who work for hedge funds and journalists who report on hedge funds and people otherwise involved in hedge funds have connected on Facebook is proof of a massive conspiracy.

It doesn’t seem to matter that these people might have common interests or might connect because they’re involved in related work. It doesn’t matter that some people are quick to accept Facebook connections without much consideration of whether they really want to be connected with other people. It doesn’t matter that “friends” on the internet is something different than friends in real life.

In Overstock.com land, it’s just proof of the conspiracy.

Carter Page also comes across as being a little nutty. Both men are smart but seem a bit off when being interviewed.

Q

Melissa Hodgman is the wife of Peter Strzok. She works for the SEC. She got a big promotion in Oct 2016. Hmmm.

There is speculation which I haven’t been able to confirm (yet) that she was involved in the investigation of Overstock.com.

The whole Byrne thing seems bizarre. White hat? Black hat? Switching sides? Speculation that he is trying to “stay in the light” in order to stay alive. If that’s the case, it implies that he “knows things.”

I watched the interview. To me, he sounded nuts. No wonder the company’s stock rose after he resigned.

There is a poster here who has some info on what patrick is saying. Piasa or pisa..cant remember. It involves a short seller who an AG said knew about 911.

Pretty sure patricks site had quite a bit of info on him.

Would that be ex-CIA Ruby Rudge Bill Barr, who said he saw “nothing” to reject the ruling of suicide in the Epstein case?

Not, nothing sufficient. Not, nothing substantial. Just, nothing.

I do not know what to think specifically about this.

I know generally I see the Federal government abusing power continually.

Agree. Watched his interview with Martha McCallum last nite. Came off as weird. Acting like “the spy who came in from the cold” but off his meds... Very strange.

Excellent digging. Thanks for that.

The DH saved for the Byrne interview with one of the females on FOX. A little confusing, to be sure, but tantalizing. I hope he has lots of protection.

Something tells me the WH Team has already interviewed him numerous times and has given him permission to speak publically.

Never heard of this guy. Seeing how he is being trashed here on two threads on FR, I thought I would see for myself.

Based solely on the Fox Business interview....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5J-1rs1LJo&feature=youtu.be

I thought the guy came off as credible. I didn’t get the impression that he was “nuts”, at all.

A very likable guy, intelligent, good looking, confident, humorous, emotional, believable.

He sure put that idiot Jonathan Honig in his place.
