With some Democrats deciding to re-commit funds from FTX donations towards charity or other party campaigns after the crypto exchange’s bankruptcy, Rep. Maxine Water, D-Calif., told FOX Business she doesn’t "want to get into that" topic.
Waters avoided reporter Hillary Vaughn’s question when asked if Democrats who received campaign cash from FTX should give it back, saying, "Well, I don't want to get into that. As a matter of fact, both sides, Democrats and Republicans, have received donations. So thank you."
The Chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee, however, did claim that lawmakers will be putting together a hearing to "explore exactly what has taken place" with FTX.

LMAO
both sides.. yeah... all those Republicans that agree with man made global warming sucked in the cash!
oh wait! there are none of those!
So, since both sides received donations, it’s okay. Effing bastards.
She is probably right on “both sides” got money, just the Leftist DEMs got the huge, huge bulk...self-admitted by the Bernie Madoff wannabe.
Mad Max probably knows about cryptocurrency as she does nuclear physics.
Our good friend Mitch McConnell got some.
Will all congress critters have to show up to vote now ?
LOL of course she said that..Maxine Waters owns a 6 million dollar house in Hancock Park, one of the nicest areas in LA County, how was she able to afford it, I think we all know how
FTX was the second largest private donor to the DNC, Maxine.
Was FTX the second largest private donor to the RNC? Fifth? Tenth? One Hundredth?
Some of Madoff’s employees were in cahoots with him and went to jail.
Makes me wonder about those FTX employees who “left early”
flying out of the Bahamas on FTX credit cards.
Were they flown out for a reason?

You can’t ask that battle-ax any question without her dissing the conservatives in some way. She’s disgusting, inside and out.
Can’t answer that, Liz.
However, if this is fully and objectively investigated and the findings not squashed, I am of the opinion that it this whole FTX fiasco will make both Bernie Madoff and Enron look like a bad joke.
Force Mitch to resign. There’s you standard.
That’s a response suggesting that Mad Maxine knows a LOT more than she’s saying.
There’s a list of them somewhere. It was Collins, Romney, Murkowski, etc.
DEMOCRAT DONORS?
Liberal dark money giant rakes in over $1.5 billion from secret donors, tax records show

The largest liberal dark money network in the United States hauled in over $1.5 billion from anonymous donors in 2021, tax records show.
Arabella Advisors is a consulting firm based in Washington, D.C., that oversees five nonprofit groups bankrolling left-wing causes. The network, which has been dubbed a dark money giant due to its complex arrangement that allows donors to be shielded from the public eye, also spent almost $1 billion combined in 2021, according to the newly released tax documents for the network groups.
“These latest tax returns prove that the Arabella Advisors network remains the largest dark money player in American politics,” Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of Americans for Public Trust, a conservative ethics watchdog, told the Washington Examiner.
Arabella’s network consists of the Sixteen Thirty Fund, the New Venture Fund, Windward Fund, Hopewell Fund, and North Fund. The nonprofit groups all have different liberal issue focus areas and fiscally sponsor other liberal nonprofit groups. This allows the sponsored groups to not file IRS tax forms.
In addition, the organizations managed by Arabella do not disclose their donors on tax forms.

A hearing to bury it.
“We’ve looked into that matter.”
“As a matter of fact, both sides, Democrats and Republicans, have received donations.”
Maybe the first time ever that Maxine told the truth.
