Here’s Why I Decided To Buy ‘InfoWars’ By Bryce P. Tetraeder, Global Tetrahedron CEO ☞ https://theonion.com/heres-why-i-decided-to-buy-infowars/

And let me say, I really do see it as a family.

And just like family members, our brands regard one another with mutual suspicion and malice.

They just brought back print and it's been very satisfying for me so far.
