losing track of a perp in fucking Manhattan
the other pic of the perp (with mask up) looks totally different, diff eyebrows, diff backpack, has coat hoodie up instead of sweater hoodie
dude was just casually outside of McDs in broad daylight while on the run (not innawoods? not moving in the evening?)
shooter is rich and his family owns a line of retirement homes
Brian Thompson is a new start, was never CEO of anything before 2021 (father was a grain elevator worker)
Brian Thompson is also excluded from the past Wikipedia pages of UnitedHealthCare, (apparently not important enough to mention?)
The only consistent CEO on said pages is Andrew Witty (still CEO now, and was CEO from 2021 along with Brian)
Andrew Witty also served as CEO of GlaxoSmithKline from 2008-2017, showing a decade of full experience
Witty was management trainee when he was 19yo, was appointed president of GSK europe in 2003 (at 39 yo), and advised Prime Minister David Cameron 2010-2015. A very experienced fellow!
UHC's profits were 17B in 2021 and 21B in 2022. Brian Thompson was getting a salary of only 10M per year from 2021-24. This seems like a pretty low profit:CEO wage ratio, but more analysis is necessary
there was some embezzlement thing where Brian defrauded 17M, Steven Hemsley (executive chariman) defrauded 102M, and Witty defrauded a few million. Brian was set to testify soon. Hemsley took home almost all of the money.
how did the shooter even know where to find Brian?

No wonder Americans are conspiracy theorists, absolutely nothing can happen in that country without a mass of dodgy secretive weird shit just below the surface. Actually it often makes me less inclined to believe conspiracy theories because America is just like that, if you dig below you will inevitably find evil and corruption, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s connected in any grand plans

Learning about Bohemian Grove broke my brain.
"What, you think all the important people in the country meet up in some secluded spot to do shady shit and plan more shady shit?"
"Yeah, they literally do that. Once a year. They actually unironically meet up and do weird satanic stuff for several days in a secluded spot that allows no trespassers. They physically convene and conspire once a year and the event they do it is also an event with a bunch of odd rituals tied to it."

I know all lodges do weird pagan stuff and it's all just for fun. I don't freak out about that stuff really, it's just that it's so on the nose. They do actually do the thing. I'm convinced Alex Jones is part of a psyop that has been going on for decades, meant to make actual conspiracy theories sound insane. "Oh you think JFK didn't get shot by Oswald? What's next, the moon landing is fake? The earth is flat?"

Yeah the fact that elite underground pedo churches might exist is disconcerting. I guess the question is are they sitting around planning 911 or are they just like ‘next week would be a great time to sell those stocks’. Who knows…

I imagine it's a bit of both. Stocks go up when things go down. I don't know about 9/11, but certainly things like "the middle east" or the "china problem" or however they'll phrase it, will be discussed.
Here's an article that' allegedly from a journalist who infiltrated it
