(neologism, politics) A small group of ultrawealthy men who exert inordinate control or influence within a political structure, particularly while espousing views regarded as anti-democratic, technofascist, and masculinist.
The shit is hitting the fan at such a high rate that it can be difficult to keep up. So this is a place to share such news.

To your point, the details are coming through unnamed sources in the article. I thought that’s what you were getting at. I’m inclined to believe it’s true, but we’ll have to wait for a formal deposition to know what’s what.
Well yes, because it's playing into conspiracy theories that were already popular when he started making the claims. That's why I'm dubious about it; he's very much saying what a lot of people already wanted to hear.
Absolutely fair. However, the reason I’m inclined to believe it is because of its likelihood, not because I want it to be true.
Well that's just circular reasoning: "I think it's likely to be true because I think it's likely to be true"
