BM had jumped the shark by 2002 at least. And I am saying this as one who has never been there.
I just wish I had gone in the 90s when it was still a ‘thing’.

What would be the right-wing analog to BM where the FBI could test out new surveillance tech? A stockholders meeting at Berkshire Hathaway? Is this really an adequate use of FBI resources?
