The YouTube Algo spit out this gem and I’m curious are these two men credible?

I never heard of Rich Baris so I don’t have any basis to judge him on. It appears he’s bias towards the Republicans but is he more spin than facts? I’m not sure.

Robert Barnes I know a bit better. I first caught wind of him when he started going on George Gammon’s YouTube channel. During his interviews with George I thought he had outstanding credibility. Everything he spoke about seemed to make logical sense.

Then Barnes and Gammon came up with this “brilliant” idea to sue the Fed. Gammon used his followers to raise the funds. This was maybe 2 or 3 years ago they started this endeavor. I haven’t followed the efforts of this for quite some time but I’m getting the sense that it was a scam to fill Barnes’s coffers.
AKA The lawyer hustle. Let’s get a bunch of YouTube viewers to give me money to pursue a case that will never bear any tangible results but keeps Barnes and his employees with billable hours.

I see this type of behavior amongst civil engineering firms all the time. They come to a rural town to sell them on this highly sophisticated water/sewer treatment plant charge the town their expensive design fee then walk away knowing damn well they set up this community for failure.

Two reasons why I find this type of civil engineering design hustle despicable:

1. The design is so expensive the rural poor town will never find the resources to build such design. If they do it will be some USDA loan with a low interest rate with a 40 year pay back period. So the fee they paid was a waste as the design will never get constructed.
2. If the town does find the capital to build the project the operation and maintenance for the sophisticated plant with be a nightmare. None of the locals will have the experience or training to operate it. Thus they have to hire a third party which will be a drain on local resources.

I question them because they are commenting on the upcoming election and the feels a bit scammy to me.

In the map below they a predicting a landslide win for Trump.

312-191 l

Which seems utterly ridiculous to me. I’m not pro Trump or Kamala but I wonder if these guys are just in on the hustle. Telling people what they want to hear so they can get clicks and grow their influence. If they are they are no better than mainstream media.
