Except he didn't. He was in prison for most of the time covered by is lies. He just wasn't the amazing criminal he claimed to be.

Reply to Twitter conspiracy theories during the pandemic involving Bill Gates. The study found what is most concerning is the speed and rapid spread of bot use to unforeseen areas. Researchers are just beginning to get a glimpse of issues and concerns that will result from this technology by Wagamaga
And guess who else benefited greatly from bots on Twitter, then insisted bots were a problem, and that he needed everything he could get on Twitter bots, like how they were detected, right after a report showed how he'd benefited from bots financially to the tune of tens of billions.

It's very likely that number is low. Over half of the dogs don't finish the race. There's a good chance many of them die and aren't reported. It's cruel.

Yeah. I actually thought it was kind of lame both parents picked her brother instead of one for each. Frankly, she needed more support. He actually had a team.

Reply to Amsterdam murder suspect caught with bag of meat at Lisbon Airport, fueling cannibal rumor by NinjaElectricMeteor
Your know what I don't get about everyone who gets caught with something?
Maybe they've never flown, but have they never watched TV, or a movie or read a paper or ANYTHING showing how through screening is? If it's in your bag, they'll see it. If there's anything remotely suspicious, they'll search. I got searched because 3 big bags of M&Ms was unusual. They're gonna notice a bag of meat.

Reply to [Ari Meirov] The NFL competition committee is expected to have discussions about the third QB rule, which would allow teams to have an emergency QB in uniform (a 47th active player) on gamedays, in case of a worst case scenario situation (like the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game). by IrwinRSchyster1
You mean the rule the teams rejected instead wanting to be able to have another player of their choice?
Sorry, but zero sympathy for the fact teams have chosen not to carry 3 QBs.

There's another factor. There are hundreds of low level matches played, where nobody is paying much attention, and the players are not earning much on tour, and nothing from sponsorships.
