Strange that nobody seemed to pick up on the obvious. Namely that Sam the Scam Bankman-Fried was giving off such strong fraud vibes that they were actual vibes in the form of very visible vibrations of the arm and leg. If you are playing poker with Sam the Scam you would have absolutely no problem detecting his Tell that he is bluffing. Yet Sam the Scam somehow was able to bluff many celebrities despite the obvious fraud Tell.
PING!
anyone that gave this idiot money deserved to lose it! I wouldn’t trust that guy to mow my lawn!!
[Another must-read excerpt from Kunstler’s new “Smoldering Fuse” column.]

The Bankman-Fried extended family is the quintessence of Woke aristocracy. Dad Joe Bankman and mom Barbara Fried are both law professors at Stanford. She also acted as a money-bundler for the Democratic Party and ran two non-profit “voter registration” orgs (against the IRS laws which only permit non-partisan organized voter registration). Brother Gabe Bankman-Fried headed a non-profit named Guarding Against Pandemics (funded by Sam), which lobbies Congress to construct new platforms for medical tyranny. Aunt Linda Fried is Dean of Columbia U’s Public Health school, and is associated with Johns Hopkins, which ran the October 2019 Event 201 pandemic drill (sponsored by the Gates Foundation) months before the Covid-19 outbreak.
Sam’s girlfriend, Caroline Ellison, ran the Alameda Investments arm of the FTX empire (that is, FTX’s own money laundromat). Her dad, Glenn Ellison, is chair of MIT’s Econ School. His former colleague on the MIT Econ faculty, Gary Gensler, who specialized in blockchains there, is now head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, an agency that Sam Bankman-Fried was attempting to rope into a regulation scheme to eliminate FTX’s crypto-currency competitors. Caroline’s mom, Sara Fisher Ellison, is an MIT econ prof specializing in the pharmaceutical industry (fancy that!). Caroline Ellison is currently on-the-run.
The sum total of all this professional and academic accomplishment is also the quintessence of Woke-Jacobin turpitude in service to a political faction that seeks maximum moneygrubbing while acting to overthrow every norm of behavior in the conduct of elections, and perhaps in American life generally. That’s some accomplishment. It’s also a lesson in why the managerial elite of our country are no longer trustworthy. They have gotten away with crimes against the nation for years, which has only made them bolder and more reckless.

That is a must read article Matt has excerpted from there, FReepers. Go to the link and read the whole thing. Spread it around.
Based on behavior and management style...I’d go back and ask if his mom paid the university to accept him, and ‘gift’ him a degree. I don’t think he’s that bright or clever...with the college in the background.
Same for that ex-GF...she’s awful goofy and mostly acting like a 12-year old kid when in the midst of interviews.
Great revelation. The Grifter Quadrant!
A lot of elite universities accept and give degrees to the children of the elites.
Witness Chelsea Clinton. Her first job out of Stanford was for around $700K/year for a no-show MSM TV job.
It’s how the world runs at the top.
It’s a big club and we ain’t in it.
This appears to be a conspiracy.
Wait, everyone tells me these don’t exist and anyone who speculates about one existing is a fringe weirdo. How can this be?
his blood type is Adderall...
Lori McLaughlin just one of the elites. Buying your children’s way into a school is reserved for people with political connections.
Lori McLaughlin just isn’t one of the elites.
Self ping for later…
He and the goblin girl were doing lots of meth.
I don’t know, I don’t think I am a fraud and I don’t take adderal or anything else. But I have a leg shake habit.
