👨‍💼 ~ Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne quits as ‘deep state’ remarks cause uproar (intellihub) ~ | Blogger: PS: WOW! The CEO of Overstock.com, has made this remarkable statement in a press release. Seldom have people of influence simply told it like it was...😮 IT WOULD be like if the CEO of Danish Danske Bank, Chris Vogelzang, told the public, that him and his Executive Management team, knew about (dirty money) money-laundering operations in the bank for more than 10 years time and a norm, for even longer, and that The Danish Ministry of Finance, Russia and Rothschilds, were potential co-conspirators... |

While I believe that I did what was necessary for the good of the country, for the good of the firm, I am in the sad position of having to sever ties with Overstock,” Byrne wrote in a lengthy 1,600-word letter.

With his company’s stock in free fall, Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne resigned as CEO on Thursday effective immediately, after he stunned investors by disclosing his entanglements with the “Deep State” as we reported previously.

Byrne, 56, who founded the company in 1999 and took it public three years later, will be succeeded by director Jonathan Johnson who was with the company for 17 years and has recently served as president of Overstock’s blockchain business, Medici Ventures.

“While I believe that I did what was necessary for the good of the country, for the good of the firm, I am in the sad position of having to sever ties with Overstock,” Byrne wrote in a lengthy 1,600-word letter.

The letter opened with two quotes, one stating the founder is “already far too controversial to serve as CEO” and the other simply noting “do not wish to disrupt possible strategic discussions.”

Byrne’s resignation comes after conspiratorial comments from August 12, where he confessed his role in the ‘deep state’, claiming that he helped cause “damage done to our nation for three years and felt my duty as a citizen precluded me from staying silent any longer.” In the “comments on Deep State” statement, Byrne referred to law-enforcement officials as “the Men in Black” and said his choice to go public was encouraged by his “Omaha Rabbi.”
