New Time: She and Musk K powder will have a romantic night later
The New York Times claimed that it interviewed more than 20 "insiders" who knew and were familiar with Shanahan, and even checked her property records, tax records, court documents, emails and other information, suggesting that they had a hammer in their hand.
As for whether it is true or not, we should eat a melon
The first is why Shanahan became the vice presidential candidate.
According to three insiders who said they "have a better understanding of Shanahan's financial situation", her wealth is more than $1 billion. When Kennedy's campaign needed money, Shanahan was chosen.
Money is something Shanahan can provide in large quantities.
According to the documents reviewed by eight insiders and the New York Times, Shanahan's assets mainly came from her divorce agreement with Sergey Brin. However, in Shanahan's five-year marriage to Sergey Brin, Shanahan would meet with the elites of Silicon Valley and use drugs such as cocaine, ketamine and psychedelic mushrooms.
Three of them said that Shanahan separated from Brin only after having an X-relationship with Musk in 2021.
According to insiders, in the autumn of 2021, Shanahan held a birthday party with Studio 54 as the theme in a club in New York, and Brin's old friend Musk also attended. Then in December, Shanahan met Musk again at a private party in Miami, which was held by his brother Kimbal Musk for Art Basel.
Four insiders said that at the party, Musk and Shanahan took ketamine (commonly known as K powder), a popular party drug, which can be legally used with a prescription. Then they disappeared together for several hours. Later, Shanahan told Brin that he had an X relationship with Musk, and told his friends, family and consultants the details.
According to court documents, Brin and Shanahan separated about two weeks after the party. In June of the next year, Brin filed for divorce on the grounds of "irreconcilable differences".

In 2022, the Wall Street Journal reported Shanahan's love affair with Musk. However, they later denied it.

Later in an interview with People, Shanahan said that she and Musk had been talking about their daughter Echo's autism treatment that night. She also said that it is a shame to be known as a liar because of X's behavior.

Shanahan is interviewed by People
Court records show that it took nearly 18 months for Shanahan and Brin to reach a divorce agreement at the end of last year. Two insiders said that during that period, she threatened to hurt herself.
Since then, Shanahan has not responded to those discussions about private life.
In March this year, Shanahan and her new partner Jacob Strumwasser had dinner with Kennedy and his wife Cheryl Hines. It is said that Kennedy liked Shanahan's life experience very much.

New Times: Before she married her ex, she split with her ex husband
Shanahan was born in Oakland, California Bay Area. His father suffered from bipolar disorder and schizophrenia and died in 2014. Shanahan's mother is a Chinese immigrant who came to the United States at the age of 30. Shanahan's parents divorced when he was very young.
"In my impression, our family's life has been very hard, and we need food stamps and government assistance."
She has never really felt the warmth from her family.

Shanahan, who was once in financial straits, entered Saint Mary's College High School, a private Catholic school in Berkeley, California, because he won a sports scholarship. The school, which charges about 24000 dollars a year, confirmed that Shanahan was a student of the school, but the school never provided a scholarship. The school said that Shanahan did receive some tuition subsidies, but declined to disclose the specific amount.
In 2007, Shanahan graduated from the University of Puget Sound and worked in a Seattle law firm. According to her personal data on LinkedIn, she later worked in the patent company RPX, and founded the patent technology company ClearAccess IP in 2013. In 2014, Shanahan received a law degree from the University of Santa Clara Law School.
Adam Philipp is the founder and executive partner of Seattle Aeon Law, where Shanahan once worked. He said that when she applied to become a paralegal in 2006, he was impressed. "Her willingness to learn was very strong," Adam Philip recalled. "She was also very knowledgeable."
In 2011, Shanahan began dating Jeremy Asher Kranz, a technology investor in San Francisco. For this relationship, she also converted to Judaism at that time. Real estate records show that Kranz spent 2.7 million dollars to buy a penthouse overlooking San Francisco about a month before his wedding in August 2014.
However, in July of the same year, Shanahan met Sergey Brin at a yoga festival in Lake Tahoe, California. He had just separated from his then wife, Anne Wojcicki. A person familiar with the matter said that Shanahan and Brin started an extramarital affair a few weeks before she married Kranz.
Kranz found this relationship a few days after his marriage to Shanahan: he saw Shanahan and Brin exchanging text messages. Court records show that he filed an application for annulment of marriage 27 days after his marriage.

A person familiar with the matter said that Kranz planned to list fraud as a reason for invalid marriage, but Shanahan was worried that fraud allegations would jeopardize her ability to engage in legal work. When negotiating with Kranz about the breakup, she threatened to maim herself.
Finally, Kranz did not declare the marriage invalid, but agreed to divorce without filing fraud charges. According to court records, as part of the settlement agreement, Shanahan was required to delete all information about Kranz from her social media account, while Kranz paid part of the wedding fees and attorney fees of $20000.
In an interview with People magazine last year, Shanahan said that he had only dated Brin since 2015.

"We fell in love at Stanford University and walked around the campus to talk about quantum physics. He took me to the places he used to go when he was studying for his master's degree, and the place where he and Larry Page founded Google."
"At that time, I was inseparable from Sergey. It was amazing. I felt like I was living in a fairy tale."
During her marriage with Brin, four people who knew Shanahan's plan said that her goal was to become a famous philanthropist like MacKenzie Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. In order to improve her popularity, she hired Matthew Hiltzik, a PR person who worked with Katie Couric and other well-known women.
In 2020, Shanahan sold ClearAccess IP to IPwe, a patent technology company, in exchange for IPwe shares worth more than 10 million dollars. IPwe filed for bankruptcy this year.
In 2021, she spent more than 200000 dollars to hire a lifestyle photographer to take photos for an article entitled "Nicole Shanahan Is Fighting the Good Fight" in San Francisco Magazine.
The article said that Shanahan was violated by an unnamed male colleague during her work at RPX, which made her fall into serious depression and finally gave up the lawsuit. Daniel McCurdy, CEO of RPX, said in a statement that before the publication of this article, the company had not been informed of this allegation and had hired a law firm to investigate.

According to two people familiar with Shanahan and Kennedy's campaign team, Shanahan has basically deleted her previous social media updates in recent weeks. Now, her social media are full of photos of her naked face in the farmers' market, as well as photos of her dressed in Western style clothes and posing with Strom Wassel in Texas with a rifle. In the past, almost all of her movements were photos of her dressed up to attend high-end events and take self portraits.

After reading the report on Nicole Shanahan in the New York Times, although the proportion of falsehood in the article is not true, it really makes people want to say: The experience of people who can get to this position is really complicated ...
Everyone eat melon rationally!
