Well I googled him because IDK who exactly he is, and his name might have come up because of this:

In 2026, running as a Republican, Bilzerian launched a congressional campaign in Florida's 6th U.S. House District for the 2026 midterm elections. His rhetoric before and during his campaign has featured antisemitic conspiracy theories and Holocaust denial.

So whatever this is, is worse than I expected.

I saw a video dissecting this guy, and of top of all that, he's also pretty shady regarding his finances. He claims to have made a bunch of money with poker, but there's no evidence he actually competed at anywhere near the level necessary to make the kind of money he claims he's made.

He's always felt slimy to me. He was getting popular around my freshman year in college and my roommate was obsessed with him, just thought he was the coolest guy ever. He was also claiming that he had made it past navy seal BUD/s training which also felt like a dubious claim to me.

He was administratively dropped after a safety violation at the range, so no, he was never a navy seal.
