    Friendly reminder that the news site Bloomberg is for 88% owned by the 18th richest tax evader in the world, Michael Bloomberg, with a net worth of $USD 109,400,000,000 (109.4 billion).

    The other 12% is the Bank of America, of which the largest owner (8.17%) is Berkshire Hathaway, which is mainly for 14.3% owned by Warren Buffett, the 9th richest tax evader in the world with a net worth of $USD 148,900,000,000 (148.9 billion).

    These media have an agenda, ran by unsuccesful people who hoarded it all. Succesful are they who act on liberty’s and society’s behalf, not on their own wealth’s behalf.

      Because Spanish politics is famously uncorrupt…

      Do you have any actual evidence of what you are saying?

        Not in English, I’m afraid. He’s been grasping at straws for a long time, trying for anything to stick before he retires in September. Imagine Breitbart news reported Michelle Obama was actually a foreign agent without any proof or facts other than a headline, and somehow the supreme court went with it and opened an investigation lasting 2 years. The news headlines from which all of these started are all generated through accusations from Manos Limpias. You can look these guys up. That’s about as deep as this shit is, but since it’s the supreme court…well. He can still choose to indict without any proof. He already tried to interrogate the president before.

        He’s been rebuffed before by other justices for his absolute lack of proof, last one when he was denied in his attempt to make it a public jury trial a month ago (again, for ‘lack of proof’ and ‘lack of minimum argumentative effort’)… But that won’t deter him from one last push for his friends before he retires.
