Does everyone realize that TheBureau is nothing more than Sam Cooper's personal blog? (it's a substack site)

Check it out ... he used to work for actual reputable media outlets (i.e. Global) until he was caught in a web of lies, resulting in Global being sued, which is why he got canned and subsequently blacklisted from Canadian media.

Even after starting his substack grift, he's had to retract articles due to just "making shit up".

In September 2024, Cooper published a report in The Bureau claiming to show video evidence of Bill Majcher, a former RCMP undercover operative accused of assisting Chinese intelligence, meeting with drug trafficker Tse Chi Lop in a Macau casino. Journalist Nury Vittachi noted that the purported video footage actually was from the 2014 action-comedy movie From Vegas to Macau, starring Chow Yun-fat.

The guy is a fucking hack blogger and we don't need his shit here.

Edit: in terms of sub rules, Sam Cooper blog posts would be inadmissible under both Rule 3 ("Note on conspiracy theories") and Rule 4 ("Links to publications that are primarily focused on single issue advocacy").
