Correct! Can't find my threads but here's Rachel Baitel's bio on the Concordia website. Omitted her stint as an intern at Ralph Lauren Jeans & member of Jared Kushner's coronavirus task force. Protege of Dina Powell.

Small world! Yes, I was permanently suspended for being "inauthentic" after 15 years of criticizing the rich & powerful w/o censorship. Fortunately, I had downloaded my X archive thru Jan 14 2025. Very happy to be here.

Otoh, MS put a lot of garbage apps on Windows that it didn't have to help independent software developers. I once did financial consulting for a publicly traded software company in Garden City that kept buying very small startups located in backwoods of Oregon for $10M/pop. Yeah, right.

I'm aware of Amazon's reputation in the publishing world but a scandal like that would carry over to its other product lines. Re Windows - I disagree as someone who taught staff how to use a computer 30 years ago. Can you imagine the chaos that would ensue w/o uniformity?

IF Bezos is inflating sales of her book to kowtow to Trump & justify the $40M purchase price of the rights, think how much damage Bezos would singlehandedly inflict on Amazon's reputation if that came out. Shareholders would not be happy.

I knew before we took the tour about Larry Holmes Drive, Larry Holmes car dealership etc. I was so annoyed I phoned his business office, ordered a heavyweight tee & told his representative about the Lafayette tour. (Easton is also home to the Crayola theme park)

When it was published on Oct 1, Melania's book was on the bestseller list for one week until Bezos paid $40M for the rights. Melania Trump is executive producer of the forthcoming Amazon documentary which is why she's MIA at the WH.

No daggers, no bulk sales. Trust me, even Republicans wouldn't buy her boring book to make her happy when it's readily available at the public library.

Maybe Epoch Times treasurer Weidong "Bill" Guan recc'd Patel to Evolve, given that Epoch Times was doing a lot of business in SE Asia. In any event, Patel's deal w Evolve/Shein underscores his disdain for ethical standards.

According to this WSJ story, Evolve approached Patel who also knew there was a very good chance Trump would be president & he would likely hold a prominent position in his administration...

Lol. Time to sign off. Later, I'll speculate about why the Kash Foundation gave a $150k interest-free loan to Kash in 2023. Also want to verify Kash was a consultant to Shein while he was a consultant to Hope Hicks while she was also a consultant to Shein.

(Kash Patel lives in a very small condo on a street named after the state I'm in now. I know there's one very nice looking man around Kash's age who lives two doors down. Just sayin'.)

Kash Patel founded the Kash Foundation initially registered in Idaho (?) on April 8 2022 but physically located in Alexandria VA. While the 2022 & 2023 990s were filed, the 2024 990 won't be available until Nov 2025...

A decade later, politically ambitious SDNY-USA Rudy Giuliani made a deal w Barnes that if he ratted out his family & associates, he'd have Barnes released from prison. What Giuliani didn't do was get the names of the cops & pols Barnes bribed or if he did, he kept it in his back pocket.

To underscore how cavalier the limousine liberals were about the heroin epidemic, the NYT magazine featured a glam shot of Nicky Barnes on the cover. President Jimmy Carter was enraged when he saw that story & sicced the Feds on Barnes...

Heroin decimated black neighborhoods in the late sixties & seventies but the same limousine liberals who championed civil rights in Mississippi didn't care about the elderly black lady in Harlem who had her head bashed in by a junkie looking for a few bucks to score his next fix...

Funny thing is one of them wistfully said on X that they wish they had more people like me on their side. During a Twitter Spaces event, George Santos said he thought I should lead the FBI. I know too there's an army of retired women ready to do battle w these cretins.

The newly established Keyboard Commando Corps! Chris Rufo, the guy who takes all the credit for promoting the war on acronyms, is a wimpy twerp, afraid of his own shadow. Rufo, btw, was discovered by Rebekah Mercer.

Okay, I admit I'm hoping Charles Moran is so disgusted w Grenell, he exposes how Grenell used the Log Cabin Republicans' not-for-profit to launder money Santos & others paid him via a fake Middle East initiative.
