This is the bonehead running against Elizabeth Warren...
"What a maroon..." -Bugs Bunny
Shiva Ayyadurai, who is widely known as V.A. Shiva, spoke at the Alt-Right “free speech rally” in Boston on Saturday in his latest appeal to the fringe, pro-Trump audiences who he thinks will help carry him to victory against Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren in next year’s election.
“Labeling you, or you, or you, Nazis and white supremacists is slander and libel,” Ayyadurai assured the small crowd assembled on Boston Common, “and we have the right in this country to sue [journalists]. And we will.”
Ayyadurai, a scientist who controversially claims to have invented email when he was 14 years old, filed as a Republican candidate in late February aiming to oust Warren in 2018. Ayyadurai quickly began making numerous appearances in fringe media outlets in order to boost his visibility on the pro-Trump media circuit and earn the endorsements of the fringe media figures who shilled for Trump in 2016.
His first major endorsement came from Red-Sox-pitcher-turned-fringe-media-star Curt Schilling, who went full-fringe after he was fired from ESPN for sharing hateful rhetoric about transgender people and had reportedly contemplated running against Warren himself before endorsing Ayyadurai.
Since then, Ayyadurai has made numerous appearances on the conspiracy outlet Infowars; he had also appeared on the outlet before declaring his candidacy. On Infowars, Ayyadurai has received glowing praise from the outlet’s prominent personalities. In one interview, host Alex Jones called Ayyadurai “the example of what we want in Congress, in the presidency, in the statehouses.”
