Ukraine 'partnered' with top Dem donor's crypto company FTX as Biden admin funded war effort: report
The Post Millenial ^ | Nov 13, 2022 | AMERICAN NEWS

Posted on 11/16/2022 1:31:38 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Ukraine partnered with FTX as the Biden administration funneled funds to the invaded nation, and FTX then made massive donations to Democrats in the US.

The multi-billion dollar cryptocurrency company FTX, run by CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, the second biggest Democrat donor right after George Soros, collapsed last week as details emerged regarding their financial practices, which led to a run by customers on FTX. FTX did not have the funds to pay out.

It was also revealed that FTX had partnered with Ukraine to process donations to their war efforts within days of Joe Biden pledging billions of American taxpayer dollars to the country. Ukraine partnered with FTX as the Biden administration funneled funds to the invaded nation, and FTX then made massive donations to Democrats in the US.

An article from the cryptocurrency news website Coindesk from March 15, 2022 reported that Ukraine partnered with FTX, and that "FTX is converting crypto contributions to Ukraine’s war effort into fiat for deposit at the National Bank of Ukraine." Fiat is the legal tender or paper money of a particular country.

FTX is converting crypto contributions to Ukraine’s war effort into fiat for deposit at the National Bank of Ukraine.

Unless something else is discovered, this in itself is legal.

Links Emerge Between FTX and WEF, Top Democrats, Ukraine, Biden Admin
slaynews ^ | 11/13/2022 | frank bergman
Posted on 11/14/2022, 1:05:44 PM by bitt

After FTX imploded earlier this week, the cryptocurrency company’s links to top Democrats, the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Ukraine government, and a senior adviser to President Joe Biden have emerged.

As Slay News reported, FTX collapsed overnight after it was discovered that billions of dollars in clients’ money had vanished.

However, the company, and its co-founder and CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, had some staggering connections to powerful entities and individuals around the world.

FTX made waves with early endorsements by NFL legend Tom Brady, supermodel Gisele Bundchen, and NBA superstar Stephen Curry. FTX spent big money on a Super Bowl commercial featuring “Seinfeld” creator Larry David. “In 2021, FTX inked a reported $135 million, 19-year deal with the NBA’s Miami Heat to rename the American Airlines Arena as FTX Arena,” CNN reported.

“Major League Baseball struck a five-year deal in 2021 to name FTX as its official cryptocurrency exchange, a partnership that includes putting FTX patches on umpires’ uniforms.”

Then the FTX collapse happened. Within the span of a few days, FTX’s Bankman-Fried – known in the industry as “SBF” – lost nearly all of his $16 billion fortune in what Bloomberg called “one of history’s greatest-ever destructions of wealth.” On Friday, the Bahamas-based FTX was forced to file for bankruptcy after $473 million of its funds were stolen in a hack of the cryptocurrency exchange. Customers rushed to withdraw their funds, but it was too late.

Reuters reported that between $1 billion and $2 billion in customer funds vanished from the FTX cryptocurrency exchange. outlet also claimed that FTX secretly funneled $10 billion of customer funds into his trading company – Alameda Research. The Daily Mail claimed that SBF’s alleged girlfriend – Caroline Ellison – ran the sister trading company.

The New York Times noted, “Despite raising $2 billion, he remained the majority owner of the company. No investors joined FTX’s board of directors, which was made up of Mr. Bankman-Fried, an FTX employee and a lawyer.”

Before his cryptocurrency exchange collapsed, Bankman-Fried was a major financier of the Democratic Party. MarketWatch reported, “SBF contributed more than $5 million to Joe Biden and groups supporting him during his 2020 presidential campaign. He said he was motivated by Biden’s ‘generic stability and decision-making process.’”

Remember: manufactured Dem “votes” cost MONEY, and the DNC does not have an infinite supply of money. Though every little bit helps [think FTX and other hidden money spigots]p

Connect the dots.

We’re still in the early stages here so this is still speculation at this point, but the puzzle pieces are all starting to fit together. Here is most likely how it went.

<><>The U.S. takes billions upon billions of taxpayer dollars and funnels those over to Ukraine.

<><>Ukraine then puts those billions into FTX (remember, it appears to not be a real company, more like a government plant).

<><>FTX is owned by Sam Bankman-Fried.

<><>Bankman-Fried takes billions of dollars invested into the company and donates them back to the Democrat party.

This part is not speculation: Bankman-Fried was the #2 largest donor to the Democrats right behind George Soros.

The Democrat party then funnels the money to people like Joe Biden (10% for the Big Guy!) and uses it to buy seats, oops, I mean run elections, in all states at all levels.

End results? Key Democrats end up with millions of dollars and that means key races are “won.” (Excerpt) Read more at dailyheadlines.com ...

Biden Asks Lame Duck Congress to Quickly Expedite Another
$38 Billion for Ukraine Plus $9 Billion for Big Pharma
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | November 15, 2022 | Sundance
Posted on 11/16/2022, 11:55:12 AM by george76

The White House is urging Nancy Pelosi to utilize the lame duck congressional session and construct a massive omnibus spending bill that will wrap Ukraine funding, COVID spending and a federal budget extension via continuous resolution. The request for Ukraine funding is an additional $38 billion.

Federal funds to support FEMA and hurricane recovery efforts will likely be part of the bargaining chips. Essentially, the sausage ingredients are: if congress doesn’t give Zelenskyy more money, then DeSantis will not get federal financial assistance.

If you don’t support Ukraine, you’re a Russian operative.

Thanks for this.

I had eye surgery and had to remain flat on my back for two days. Heard this report of the radio, but with mask over eyes, wasn’t sure which station.
Thanks so much for the link. Will send it around to curious friends.

I had, incidentally, called my idiot Senator Patty Murray before the election to ask why so many billions for Ukraine while American families put out of work by lockdowns were about to lose their food benefits. Left message, of course no one called me back.

Although I certainly support Ukraine in this war I have never doubted that some of the money pouring in gets funneled back to US politicians. Now we have a good idea how it was done. Dems always take their cut.

Ukraine 'partnered' with top Dem donor's crypto company FTX

Article doesn't actually corroborate that statement. There is no 'partnership', FTX(One of the largest crypto exchanges) was hired to convert crypto donations to money that was then deposited to Ukraine's bank.

Many organizations have connections to FTX, Miami Heat for instance.
