Overstock.com CEO Comments on Deep State, Withholds Further Comment
August 12 2019 - 7:03PM
Overstock.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:OSTK) CEO Patrick M. Byrne has released
the following statement:
“Sara Carter has published two articles relating the following
claims of mine:
- Starting in 2015 I (operating under the belief that I
was helping legitimate law enforcement efforts) assisted in what
are now known as the ‘Clinton Investigation’ and the ‘Russian
Investigation’ (in fact, I am the notorious ‘missing Chapter 1’ of
the Russian investigation). It was the third time in my life I
helped the Men in Black: the first was when my friend Brian
Williams was murdered, and the second was when I helped the M.I.B.
shake up Wall Street a decade ago. Unfortunately, this third time
turned out to be less about law enforcement and more about
political espionage conducted against Hillary Clinton and Donald
Trump (and to a lesser degree, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz).
- In July 2018 I put the pieces together. I immediately
(last July) came forward to a Congressman and a senior
military officer, to the Department of Justice this April, and
(upon my Omaha Rabbi reminding me of my duty as a citizen late this
June) to a small set of journalists this summer. Ms. Carter was
among them. Her two stories are accurate.
Having confirmed Ms. Carter’s two articles, I have fulfilled
those citizenship obligations of which my Rabbi reminded me. I will
speak no more on the subject. Instead, having lived in places
lacking Rule of Law and having witnessed the consequences of its
absence, I plan on sitting back and watching the United States
Department of Justice re-establish Rule of Law in
our country.”
