Honestly, though. This is nothing more than a Gish Gallop of (mostly) BS claims.

That which is claimed without evidence may be dismissed without evidence.

FWIW, I found this from FactCheck.org, which debunks many of the claims on that list:

Other note: Muslim men are not to wear gold which I presume his wedding ring is made of.

That would mean he was a rather bad fake Muslim too.

Islam has, however, prohibited two kinds of adornment for men, while permitting them to women. These are, first, gold ornaments and, second, clothing made of pure silk. `Ali reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took some silk in his right hand and some gold in his left, declaring, “These two are haram for the males among my followers.”(Reported by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, an-Nasa’i, Ibn Hayyan, and Ibn Majah, who reports the additional phrase, “but halal for the females.”) `Umar reported that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say, “Do not wear silk, for those who wear it in this life shall not wear it in the Hereafter.” (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim) On another occasion, referring to a silken garment, he said, “This is the dress of a man who has no character.” (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim)
