  Tight. Very tight. One man once managed to interviewed one of the brothers.

  They tried to ruin his life.

  At the congressional swearing in ceremony for the Tea Party wave, I saw David Koch leaving the building and got a short interview. Every other political interview Koch ever gave was carefully screened. This one wasn’t.

  This interview apparently angered him. Shortly after they hired private investigators & operatives and I got harassed for over a year. An old high school media account got hacked, they hosted a website calling me a liar, edited my Wiki, a Koch blogger smeared me almost every day.

    Yikes. Listening to him talk, and his security guy or whoever that was, leaves a really sickening feeling in my gut. They come across as psychopaths for some reason. It’s that cheap charisma that feels so off-putting. I worry what those types of billionaires do in private that will never reach the light of day. Epstien Island type stuff we’ll never know about.

      They come across as psychopaths…

      Yep. Studies have shown that corporate CEOs have a much higher chance of having psychopathic traits than the general population.

        The Koch’s are not your average CEO. They are 100% psychopaths. They have been financing libertarian propaganda since the 60’s, and are more responsible for both fascism and the MAGA mental illness than Trump, McConnell or any other Republican. If you dig into their history, it’s littered with examples of everything from wilfully poisoning the environment, screwing workers they gave cancer, and attempting to overthrow the US gov. I suggest the behind the bastards episode about them.

        Their dad was a literal nazi; praised Hitler, Japan, and Italy in the 1930’s, and considered New Zealand a socialist hellscape. They were raised by a child abusing Nazi nanny, who was such a Nazi she returned home in 1939 to be a part of Hitlers reich. Everything that came after don’t get any better.

      probably is on Epstein list, they cant afford to “watch” ghislaine, otherwise it would be too suspicious

  One of them it’s dead, so his security is perfect. I’m hoping the other one ups his security game real soon now (due to natural causes, obviously).
