👀 A casino in Nepal?
@ninaandtito

"Very few documents link Barfield Nominees to McKinsey’s hedge fund, but when they do, McKinsey Investment Office money can be traced to unusual places like a casino in Kathmandu, Nepal, called the Millionaire’s Club."

"Silver Heritage’s operations in these countries are principally targeted at customers in India and Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, and Korean expatriates, respectively."

Why would McKinsey's secret hedge fund be investing in this little casino in Nepal? It seriously only has 20 tables and 36 slot machines.

From Michael Cohen's opening statement to the House Oversight Committee:

"He was a presidential candidate who knew that Roger Stone was talking with Julian Assange about a WikiLeaks drop of Democratic National Committee emails."
"I am providing the Committee today with several documents. These
include:

Copies of letters I wrote at Mr. Trump’s direction that threatened
his high school, colleges, and the College Board not to release his
grades or SAT scores."
"There were at least a half-dozen times between the Iowa Caucus in
January 2016 and the end of June when he would ask me “How’s it going in Russia?” – referring to the Moscow Tower project."

Yeah, Smollett's problems may just be beginning...

From reporting back in Feb 3, 2019: "Tickets for Smollett’s show were still available as of Tuesday afternoon, but they sold out within 48 hours of the assault being reported."

nytimes.com/2019/02/03/art…
Huh. Sort of sounds a bit fraud-ish...

"Some attendees said they had bought tickets in a show of solidarity but left feeling energized by Smollett’s message and music."
Smollett needs to give back the money for any tickets sold AFTER his "alleged" attack. ASAP.

Jussie may want to read up on a little something called the "Fyre Festival."

Very few entrepreneurs raise venture capital. They instead grow
their business from savings, internally generated cash flow, bank
loans, etc. In other words, they financially bootstrap the business. That is overwhelmingly the normal case when a successful business is created.
Jeff Bezos: "In business, every once in a while, when you step up to the plate, you can score 1,000 runs. This long-tailed distribution of returns is why it’s important to
be bold." VC is about discovering one to [insert small integer here] of these very rare wins in a fund.
"Value creation must be at least 3x the amount of cash burned or you’re wasting investor value. Think: If you raise $10M at a $30M pre ($40M post) that investor needs you to exist for at least $120M (3x) to hit his or her MINIMUM return target." bothsidesofthetable.com/what-is-the-ri…

It’s always been China!
Stefan Halper, Alexander Downer, Sergei Millian, all in the pockets of the Chi Coms.
Even Hakluyt has a separate branch dedicated to serve its Chinese masters.

Some things I’ve learned from speaking at & participating in dozens of events on “the fake news problem” (disinformation, media manipulation, online speech & tech platform problems generally):
1) Everyone agrees that media literacy must be part of the solution. Very few have concrete ideas on how to implement and fund this in public education (or other venues). Rarely are educators involved in these discussions.
2) Many, esp. from traditionally trusted institutions, mourn the loss of faith in institutions - gov’t, media, etc. Few address the legitimate reasons why this change may have happened and what responsibilities institutions themselves have in earning back trust from the public.
