    No one becomes an informant just because. Curious what illegal activities he was caught up in.

      He’s a billionaire, so not sure how much time you have here… 😉

        I’m assume sex trafficking as that’s the safe bet with his type these days.

        That’s the elites, the common folk, will hate him and refuse anything he says. The trump voters.

        So in his world, he’s fine, but it’s the end of his political power.

    That doesn’t mean he was “informing” on the right wing conspiracies. I will bet money that this is going to turn out like the January 6th informants, who were right wing nutjobs hired by the FBI to… “investigate antifa.”
