I clearly recall how the media matrix threw all its resources, time, and attention into demonizing Martin Shkreli back around 2015.
By 2017, he was a convicted felon and the biggest social pariah in America.
Hillary Clinton used him as a boogeyman and scapegoat during her failed presidential candidacy. Shkreli was the devil, she told us. He raised $13 medications to $750 per pill! Hang him!
But over time, Shkreli became a cult hero amongst libertarians and small government crowds. He was an easy target for the Obama administration—a wealthy hedge fund manager and pharmaceutical entrepreneur who apparently wasn’t a part of the club, so he was destroyed.
Or was he?
Here is a sample of questions Tucker asks in this compelling interview:
“You were given seven years in prison. What did you think?”
“Hillary Clinton…you gave her the finger. You didn’t expect to get arrested?”
“Sam Bankman-Fried asked you for advice on doing time in prison?"!”
“What do you think the public missed about your story?”
Virtually everything, according to Shkreli.

Intrigued! I remember this case and will listen to the interview with open mind. After the last 4 years, EVERYTHING is up for reexamination.
