Those who paid attention to Donald Trump’s hush money trial in April 2024 may remember seeing images and video clips of a man who set himself on fire.
It has been revealed that this man is Max Azzarello, a conspiracy theorist and self-proclaimed investigative journalist.
The Jury Was Chosen
The New York Post reported that Azzarello set himself on fire at pretty much the exact same time as the jury was chosen for the trial.
This was after he had covered himself in gasoline, which was used to ensure he could set himself alight.
Onlookers Were Horrified
Azzarello did this while surrounded by people standing outside the trial, leaving many horrified by what had just happened.
As there was already a police presence there, the New York Post reported that many were shouting for the police to come and do something, as many were frozen in horror.
There Was Little That Anyone Could Do
Despite police rushing to get a fire extinguisher, there was little anyone could do other than wait for an ambulance.
Sky News reported that Azzarello had died in hospital.
Trump Offered Condolences
After learning that Azzarello had set himself on fire, the Trump campaign offered its condolences.
This was before Azzarello’s death and was offered to those who had witnessed him set himself on fire.
Azzarello Is a Part of the Ponzi Papers
Just moments before setting himself on fire, Azzarello had been handing out newsletters to passersby.
An account on X revealed that the newsletters had links. Following the link will take you to a Substack newsletter entitled “The Ponzi Papers.”
Azzarello Was Arrested Three Times in 2023
This isn’t Azzarello’s first time with the police, as he was arrested three times in Florida in 2023 alone.
The New York Post reported that he was arrested for throwing wine at a framed photo that was a photo of Bill Clinton, criminal mischief, and disturbing the peace.
Azzarello Was in a Psych Ward
In 2023, Azzarello was placed in a psych ward.
He posted about this on Facebook, detailing the good, the bad, and the ugly. He ended the post by saying that the Government needs to be abolished.
Azzarello Wanted To Draw Attention to Victims of Totalitarianism
Azzarello did this extreme act to draw attention to the victims of totalitarianism.
The Times of India reported that Azzarello had written in his newsletter that the US Government was about to hit people with an “apocalyptic fascist world coup.”
Trump and Biden Are on the Same Side
There has been some discourse regarding which political side Azzarello might be on.
However, from his newsletter, it appears that Azzarello believes that Trump and Biden are on the same side and will both be leading a fascist coup against the American people and possibly the world.
The Elite Are Peddling Fear
Azzarello also believes that the elite is peddling fear into everyone else about various crises that he believes aren’t real.
The New York Post reported that Azzarello believes the elite have peddled fear to take all the wealth from everyone else, only to push a fascist dystopia upon everyone.
Cryptocurrency Will Collapse the World’s Economy
Azzarello’s LinkedIn page briefly describes what he believes in, and it’s not cryptocurrency.
He refers to cryptocurrency as a Ponzi scheme, stating that it will soon collapse the world’s economy so the elite can fascist coup everyone else.
