The $3 mil is cool, but I’m most delighted that CBS News put “misogynist influencer Andrew Tate” in a headline.

Would have been more accurate if they included "rapist" in there, but y'know... big fucking quotations "allegedly".
Garbage belongs in the trash. Looks like I'll still be waiting for someone to take it out.
So they can classify trash they just choose to do it subjectively.
If he was American, he'd be the secretary of defense.
He bet on Romanian corruption instead.
The department of sexually acceptable offenses.
He'd be co-heading the Department of Garbage Egos
Ahm, he actually is half American......
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy....
Unfortunately he will earn that money back fairly quickly. The data leak showed that thousands of straight up morons are still paying these Trafficking Bros $50 a month
I was thinking about this the other day when they mentioned just how rich billionaires are. It'll never happen, but if governments of the world wanted to could they just seize all of Musks or Bezos' assets? It's all made up anyway, right?
Yes, assuming they found a benefit to doing so. We could/should nationalize spaceX at least. Tesla and Twitter is harder to argue, the boring company hasn't really been much of anything, but could easily be nationalized as well, for security and infrastructure.
SpaceX is ran beyond stupid and useless. Under control of a sane independat CEO it might actually produce something useful .
See, the issue isn't that they've made a bunch of illegal money, it's that they haven't made enough illegal money, which means they're still susceptible to seeing consequences for it.
Not really. Normal people would see prison time for felony tax evasion. They are just making him pay what he owes. He's not being punished. He's also under house arrest for human trafficking instead of prison. He's largely avoiding the consequences of his crimes.
How about the real crime here? Who stole that orc's chin?
Hopefully the police do so.
Some good news at last.
