I dont know if everything in the link below is 100% correct, but I do know he was convicted of human smuggling and spent time in jail. His co conspirators are all russian. He talks a good talk, and makes some interesting points, but he always seemed a little fake to me. So he no longer gets clicks from me.

particularly since the site was infiltrated by the right wing prior to the 2020 elections. While there may be some accurate statements on reddit threads, it is usually accompanied by a bunch of garbage that is best disregarded.

That link was just because there was some info on his charges. Over 1000 cases of fraudulent visas and 200 cases of human trafficing with mostly russian females ages 20-25 being forced to work for sub min wage and being forced to live like 20 to a condo, with threats of violence if they resisted.

While I believe some of the information is truthful, there are other details that are in dispute and which read like tabloid press. With all of that stated, my interest is in his opinions rather than his criminal record even if I don't agree with him. I'll leave it up to other members to decide whether they are interested in his discussions.
