Here are the Dems who benefited from the left-wing PAC that FTX funneled $27M through
Fox Business ^ | 16 Nov 2022 | Thomas Catenacci

Bankman-Fried and another FTX executive gave the vast majority of donations received by a group that gave exclusively to Democrats...

...The majority of his political givings, though, went to the Protect Our Future PAC, a group founded in January that is dedicated to boosting candidates committed to preventing future pandemics....

...While Protect Our Future PAC appears to be a bipartisan group based on its website, it exclusively supported Democratic campaigns....

No. It will take some digging into the web site that lists all donations over $250.

For most of my life Republicans were known as business friendly. One would think the low tax, low regulation legislation they promoted and enacted throughout the years would have produced political results. The opposite happened and that’s why Republicans are the Stupid Party.

So is it fair to say he was scamming clients of funds then using the stolen money to fund democrats?

Your explanation loses me. Explain why the opposite happened and why it makes the R’s the stupid party. I’m not arguing, I agree the majority of the R’s maybe stupid, I like to think gullible.

I think that’s called money laundering. With all the taxpayer money democrats have been throwing around the world, some of it is bound to end up in their coffers. 10% for the big guy, you know. What republicans got this money?

Which is going to make this very interesting. The clients have clawback to the money stolen from them and the investigation into that crime is going to expose a whole bunch of theft and money laundering.

The Democrats are scrambling to make this go away because one large client was the U.S. taxpayer. What did the Democrats know and look the other way on?

This could bring down not cryptocurrencies which they'll blame but segments of the financial industry. If you can't trust the money someone stole for you, the system gets replaced.

It's like paying a drug supplier with counterfeit money. Even after any initial repercussions, future payments are going to be made with something else.

“...so dems voting for Ukraine aid were voting to fund their campaigns with taxpayer money.....”

Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ladies and gentlemen! We have a winner of the chicken dinner!
And when the truth finally comes out (IF it ever does), it won’t be just the dems that benefitted; GOPe UniParty hack members as well.
Did the Big Guy get his 10% cut??? Inquiring minds would like to know....
Maybe those newly-hired 81K IRS agents could start by investing THIS...oh....wait....

they’re not “blowing money”

What the candidate doesn’t spend-they get to keep; however they have put a “golden handcuff” on themselves and are hence owned by the DERPS/UniParty. Forever

American Politics is a beautiful thing

EVERY candidate should pay that money back to those who lost their money in this fraud.

This is an extremely interesting article, linked below.

If only half of what it says is true, I still get to the conclusion that SBF was running an intelligence agency originated scam with two purposes: to funnel money to US Marxist Democrats and corrupt Republican politicians, and to destroy credibility in any sort of “independent” crypto-currency-”banking”.

This is the worst deep state bs I have seen in a while.

It is a long read but it is really worthwhile. The notion that anyone with any brains would give this chubby frumpy kid serious money is amazing. Agree with Elon Musk about the bs-ometer. Am sure Musk knew that the whole enterprise was an intel-construct scam for the benefit of the creepy politicos.
