Dean Blundell is a former radio shock jockey who has been publishing pro-left disinformation and conspiracy theories lately.
He has an article stating Carney orchestrated a bonds sell off with Europe and Japan which would be cool as fuck if it were real… the story is widely discredited.
I love reading his stories because they’re well written and designed to make leftists feel good. If you treat them as fiction you won’t be likely to spread the misinformation they contain.
I’m not saying that the bonds story is true or not, and neither is Snopes. The article you linked said they don’t know if it’s true or not, and no one will tell them. Hardly a smoking gun. Really all Snopes does is attempt to discredit Blundell.
Under normal circumstances, and with someone else (not Carney) I would say it’s bullshit, but Carney is one of the few people in the world that I think could pull it off, if it’s true. Believe me, I am still skeptical about it’s truth, but it’s not far fetched.
I love the bonds story, I love how it’s tied to many actual true events. I want it to be true in my heart.
But there isn’t any evidence that it’s true, and I don’t think Blundell is the guy who would have the “inside scoop” and leak it when no one else does. He just doesn’t have the credentials or the connections. This combined with the verifiably false and misleading statements on his site like were excluding the US from NORAD means he’s simply not a credible source.
This kind of thing is exactly how the right wing conspiracy mindset started gaining broad acceptance and I just don’t want to see us on the left fall for the same trap.

I would tend to agree. We don’t need to be using the same tools the lunatics do, it’s what makes them lunatics.
