"Bankman-Fried told Jacob Goldstein of “What’s Your Problem?” that he might donate “north of $100 million” and up to $1 billion to Democrats in the 2024 presidential elections."

So, yer sayin' that he might not have the money to donate in 2024? Perhaps he can ask Jerkerdork at Facebutt for a little help. Heh heh heh.

they’re already talking about replacing the naming rights for the Miami Heat arena called FTX Arena to another corporation name as Miami Dade thinks they could not afford paying the naming fees.

Wikipedia has an interesting take on Sam Bankman-Fried

"Contributions for June 2021 through February 2022 went to members of both parties. They included direct donations to the Republican campaigns of senators Susan Collins of Maine, Mitt Romney of Utah, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Ben Sasse of Nebraska"

Contributions for the year 2022, through August 15, 2022, also went to members of both parties, with $105,000 donated to conservatives, and $35,872,000 donated to liberals, a ratio of 1:341 in favor of liberal candidates.

In 2022, Bankman-Fried provided initial financial support for Protect Our Future PAC. Protect Our Future was launched as a Democratic political action committee with $10 million in initial funding aiming to support "lawmakers who play the long game on policymaking in areas like pandemic preparedness and planning", according to Politico

Bankman-Fried's net worth peaked at $26 billion. 8 November 2022, his net worth was estimated to have dropped 94% in a day to $991.5 million according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. By November 11, 2022 Bloomberg estimated Bankman-Fried's net worth to be $1.

I suspect all crypto is a scam.

In a bankruptcy, payments made without consideration during the last year or so have to be paid back, don’t they?

The DNC et al needs to pay this money back

If this guy was a Republican, he would already be in jail for a dozen different financial violations.

According to Bloomberg, he runs his crypto empire from a huge hotel penthouse in the Bahamas.

“………spent at least $39,826,856 in an effort to help Democrats win………”

Sounds like a money laundering scheme to me.

It sounds like he comingled funds from FTX with Alameda Research. If so, he’s in for a world of SEC hurt.

So he funded Democrats and RINOs.

Its a good thing he has some money left. I anticipate his legal costs are going to be astronomical. All those people who lost money in FTT or FTX are going to sue the bejeezus out of him.

“Maybe we need to also not run horrible candidates.”

Like Biden, Harris, Fetterman and a number of Congress critters?

Perhaps we need to hang together and back our candidates, horrible or not. Seems to work for the Dems.
