He was never brilliant. Just a schizo conspiracy theorist radio host that managed to find a following in Texas by repeatedly yelling about black helicopters.

Well I definitely stopped liking him after he went maga, I used to enjoy his show just for the news really. He would have basically ever good story if you didn't get caught up in the commentary. That guy was like a researcher on meth, in more ways than one.

You were into him in 2012 when he denied the Sandy Hook shooting was real and that the parents were crisis actors perpetuating a false flag op to pass gun regulations?? Long before MAGA was a thing, he was a piece of shit. Even when 9/11 happened….he was making shit up on the day of the attacks. The dude has always used tragedies to boost his profile.
