Yep. BearingPoint was KPMG"s consulting firm... that went bankrupt and was bought up by both Deloitte and PwC.

Ernst and Young just flat sold their consulting arm to Capgemini.

AOC isn’t bright so did you expect different this time?

Why yes, I did.
quote:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also known as AOC, earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a double major in international relations and economics from Boston University. She graduated cum laude in 2011

This cum laude designation, is that similar to the award Mayor Brown gave Kamala Harris?

I ask one of our legal folks to expound on culpability for being sued for slander when politicians or bureaucrats wrongfully and publicly accuse a company or an individual (either erroneously or on purpose) of doing something they flat out never did.


I would think that if it was a legitimate mispack, then the culpability for slander would be zero.

Deloitte was dumping chemicals, but who blew up the Nordstrom Rack Pipeline? We’d have to get the 2 geniuses together AOC and Karine Jean-Pierre to find out.

I’m well aware. I sold a company to one of them, and one of my companies still competes with both of them. But Deloitte is a consulting company too. What I’m telling you is that most of the value of Deloitte comes from its consulting branch, not its accounting. This same phenomenon is why Accenture exists.

Eh, debatable.

Agreed. I’d bet on it, but I can’t prove it. I can tell you this, they make obscene margins in consulting - way more than in accounting. I am part owner of a company that competes with them, and they charge nearly twice for their services, which are generally terrible. Their accounting, on the other hand, might be slightly overpriced, but it’s close to market rates.

Facts don't matter to fanatics, only the delusion of moral superiority.

"It is more important to be morally right than factually correct."

Of course she 'probably' did. She's too young to know what DuPont is anyway... just echo's talking points her staff gives her.

And don't forget their side hustle of dumping chemicals into rivers.
