As a non-aussie reading this sentence:

Hundreds of thousands of dollars seems a reasonable price for a multi-city speaking tour. Venue fees are expensive, considering the cost of the facility and the staffing, plus room and board for the people actually on the tour.

Got a link for the protein curls? I need to stock up on bulk staples and was looking for these before.

Bought crypto, tumbled it, left the country. At least, that'd be the first thing to occur to me if I was looking at an account fat with the dollars of pea-brained right wing fucks.

He identified $385,000 worth of transactions that might be “unreasonable director-related transactions … in favour of a director, a close associate of the director or to a person on behalf of [either]”.

The company has debts with everyone (customers, government, talking head, sponsors), definitely a fraudulent* bankruptcy. The director's name (George Zacharia) is unfortunately too common, I wish that I could have found some cringe social media that was definitely his. Damien Costas and his many bankruptcies are easy to find back. I wouldn't be surprised if Zacharia was a strawman for Costas.

*Edit to add: that disappeared money wasn't splurged on anything fancy, it was siphoned out.

They should get their money back, as the trader's bank should be responsible

To steal all of that money, obviously!

Grifters gonna grift

Especially for a minor American pundit in Australia. What's even the point? She knows far less about Australian politics than American politics and that's already a very low bar.

Even though it is so very rare? XD

But wait ! There’s easier way, let me show you build a site to sell patriotic « freedom phone »

A fool and their money are soon parted.

That said, I'm all for sending Klandace to Australia to face charges. Idk if anyone will get their money back, but it's worth a shot!

Joel Jammal, the head of Turning Point Australia and a sponsor for the tour, said he believed it sold 15,000 tickets, which started at $95 and ranged up to $1,500 for VIP tickets, suggesting Rocksman sold at least $1.4m worth of tickets.

But…If you read the article she was actually scammed out of a bunch of money too. She even gave the promoter money to cover refunds and they just didn’t refund it. Rocksman (the promoter) is the real villain of the story.

Conservatives always lie.

I mean, it’s messed up all around, but I’ll at least give credit to C.Owens for trying to get people their refunds.

Conservatives always lie

Also I’m not exactly crying over these folks getting fleeced but holy shit it’s crazy what the promoter did and got away with and what they stole.

C Owens is almost certainly in on the scam, but she needs to make herself the victim because conservatives always do

I think if you're going to a Candice Owens talk you're probably pretty used to being scammed.

I heard it was closer to $8,647 ¯\(ツ)/¯

1. people are idiots
2. we have a ton of right wing idiots and American politics is so loud that they get really into it.

Our right wing is mostly about billionaires and corporate theft, with only the minor parties doing the racist schtick. So the racists tend to be Maga despite it not being all that relevant to our politics. Although Pauline Hanson's one nation is getting bigger since the liberals have fallen out of favour and she's good at racism.

I don’t normally speak on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community, however; ew! We don’t claim her.

After my lifetime of travel I have learned one thing for sure: Geography does not matter.

Roughly 30% of humanity is made up of garbage-brained morons whose only enjoyment is watching others suffer.

Just like the assholes scamming them, suckers are everywhere — or need I remind you how the current White House occupant got there?

Yeah, I think even she knows she's not big enough to screw over her base & get away with it like Trump has.
