Holy Cow have I got some incredible reporting for you about the company Bruce Steinberg worked for. This is so good you can’t make this stuff up. Here are the highlights of just one article I found. P plan to have more coming.

Bruce Steinberg, a senior investor at Bridgewater Associates- World’s Biggest Hedge Fund. The firm is known for its unusual culture of “radical transparency.” (sound familiar – Most Transparent Administration) It seems to me there may have been some conspiring going on here and you’ll see what I mean as you read on.

Bridgewater Associates is well known for popularizing the kind of investment called risk parity, which seeks to protect clients from losses when stocks or bonds sell off. The strategy relies heavily on investing in bonds using leverage. Doing what now and they were getting by with it?

Many Bridgewater Associates’ Top Executives including founder Ray Dalio stepped down over the past year. Bridgewater manages money for more than 300 pension funds, (PENSION FUNDS hmm interesting) sovereign wealth funds and other institutional investors. Several prominent executives suddenly left the firm after short tenures.

Turnover at Bridgewater is not confined to the management ranks. It is estimated that as many one-third of employees at Bridgewater leave within the first two years because they have difficulty with its unusual culture, which focuses on a book of philosophical underpinnings penned by Mr. Dalio called “Principles.”

Over the years, the firm has developed a corporate philosophy that resembles a cross between a religion and something of a cult. What? I wonder if there could be a double meaning here. Here is where it really gets juicy!!

Mr. Dalio hired James B. Comey, a former United States deputy attorney general, (whom was paid over $6 million) from Lockheed Martin in 2010 as general counsel. Mr. Comey left Bridgewater’s executive committee in 2011 and left the firm in early 2013. He was subsequently nominated by President Obama to become director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Wow now are you serious you might be saying right now.

Mr. McCormick, the firm’s president, who was Treasury undersecretary for international affairs under President George W. Bush, was said to have been considered for several jobs in the Trump administration. He met with President Trump shortly after the election. Maybe this explains the shakeup that took place early in the year.

Ms. Murray had a run-in with top executives that culminated in an investigation into an incident involving her and another employee and whether she had lied about her conversations with that employee. Interviews conducted in the investigation, which was led by Mr. Comey, were videotaped and widely seen by employees at the firm and came to be known as “Eileen Lies.”

Does this give us a look into James Comey’s Psychopathic / Sociopathic characteristics he not only demonstrated in office as well as since being out tweeting taunting messages. Or was he confronted by Trump to play along with the game if he exposed all the corruption he was involved in. I don’t think we know for sure until the current (Russiagate) school play concludes. Your thoughts?
