FTX CEO, who lost $15B in a week, funneled millions to Dems, far-left causes

The article said nothing about Democrat support.

Could you imagine if Koch brothers did this... the left would flip their **** in a partisan manner.

You know it. I know it. Everybody knows it.

 

Alabama Conservatives, Fund Heartland Resurgence, National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) to name a few.

But then again......so what.

You could have just googled "sam bankman-fried donations to republicans", but no, - you had to be spoon-fed

 

The WEF and the Dems are married?
So who gave away the bride? lol


All you got is a guilty by association conspiracy.
It's just nuts.

 

Mitch McConnel is the only Republican Im aware of taking Bankman-Fried money. We wouldn't mind if he got swept up in some scandal with all the Democrats.
And lets not forget, Bankman-fried wasnt just the 2nd largest individual donor to the Democrats in the 2022 election. He was the 2nd largest individual donor to Joe Biden in 2020

 

Well, kind of disingenuous to not point out that 92% of his contributions went to democrats, even though the other 8% went to republicans. Republicans who have supported propose legislation preferred by most Crypto corporations

 

Some of them did. Some put billions of real dollars into FTX or their coins, and have now lost it all.

 

You really shouldn't be accusing others of flipping out over petty or false assumptions.

 

Oh puh-leeze, the WEF spews leftist rhetoric.

 

Are you kidding? Bernie Madoff was in cuffs as soon as what he did was discovered.

 

Oh, bud... we know you in particular would jump all over this if it was a right wing supporter. Without a doubt.

 

You clearly have over estimated my concern for others politics.

 

The phenomenon is widespread.


Among The Democratic Party Nobility
November 18, 2022/ Francis Menton

• 
  Crypto exchange FTX has now imploded, and it’s turning out to be nothing more than your classic Ponzi scheme — cash in, cash out, and essentially no underlying business.
  
  
• The collapse came after the leader and face of the enterprise, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), had made himself the second largest donor to the Democratic Party in the just-ended election cycle. SBF’s donations totaled some $70 million or so, apparently consisting almost entirely of money stolen from unsuspecting clients.
  
  
• Andrew Stiles, writing at the Washington Free Beacon on November 15, has some fun with the recent revelations in a piece titled “Sam Bankman-Fried Is Not Alone: Some of History’s Greatest Monsters Were Democratic Megadonors.” The sub-head is “Disgraced crypto guru continues a storied tradition.”
  
  
• Stiles compiles a short list of some of the greatest names among the biggest donor/crook/predators in the Democratic Party firmament: Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Ed Buck, and Bernie Madoff.
  
  
• I have only one quibble with Stiles: Why stop there?

Still unarrested Dem Donor

Bankman-Fried, FTX Gave $300k to House Members Investigating Him

Cozy!

 

Ryan Salame was also laundering FTX money to politicians, you should look him up.

 

Yes, it's surreal compared to twenty years ago. Sure there was mischief afoot then too, but it was much less frequent. Either that, or it was always this frequent but we couldn't see it without the innernet. Still, it sure FELT better!

 

That's PURPOSE of these crypto currencies.

They are methods of laundering money.

Plus, investigations into crime always point out the need to follow the money.

So, going crypto is a great addition to the arsenal of ways criminals can ignore our laws.

I really do not know why we tolerate this. Why can't we just agree that crime isn't a GOOD thing?

 

I would like to know how much BTC North Korea is holding. I remember reading almost 10 years ago that DPRNK was using BTC to work around sanctions.

If Kim was holding a bunch before the boom, he may be the world's richest man.

 

True. But, there certainly has been money laundering and other illegalities for a long time.

Now, we're providing crypto currencies to make it easier.

And, somehow people jump for joy!!

 

Still unarrested FTX-CEO Big Democrat donor.

A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION MASQUERADING AS A POLITICAL PARTY: Seems like all the best crooks are Democrats.

But an awful lot of the big scammers and moral midgets of the past few decades have been huge Democrat donors. Off the charts Democrat donors. The Venn diagram between big Democrat donors and scumbags shows a ton of overlap.



'Sam Bankman-Fried, the latest fraudster to (maybe) face the music was the 2nd largest donor to the Democrats for the past two election cycles. His contributions were only exceeded by George Soros. Bankman-Fried had been promising to spend up to a billion dollars in the next election cycle to ensure Democrats win the presidency and all power in Washington.'

Perhaps that's why he remains unarrested and uncharged.


Ed Buck and Crooked Hillary.

 

It wasn't even a good scam. Just a few simply questions would have shown that. I guess the money was just too good.

 

It would be no problem to see that on chain. The FBI tracks wallets all the time and have even caught criminals who try to use Bitcoin.

 

"Stolen"????? Evidence please.

 

That's what I've never understood about crypto fanatics. They claim it provides privacy from the government, but every transaction is permanently recorded on the block chain, so it can all be read in a way paying cash never could.

 

I wonder if Bitcoin is now a good investment that its down 75%.

 

The speed of emergence of these crypto currencies is probably ahead of the rate of reigning them in.

After all, the root purpose of them is to avoid normal controls.
