FTX COLLAPSE: “Tens Of Millions Of Dollars” In Illicit Political Donations Made, Says Prosecutor
WeLoveTrump.com ^ | December 13, 2022 | Vince Quill

The sad truth is that the ‘campaign contributions’ (bribe money) are likely far in excess of tens of millions…

Regardless, prosecutors are claiming that FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried made millions in ‘illegal’ campaign contributions—this is aside from the money transparently given mostly to Democrats.

SBF gave money to both sides of the political establishment; however, reports indicate that he was a Democrat mega-donor.

His recent arrest has prompted many to wonder if the establishment is attempting to keep him from Congressional questioning via testimony he agreed to give.

No wonder Maxine Waters Flips Her Wig When GOP Congressman Prevents Her From Abruptly Ending FTX Hearing. She's been ordered to "Shut this damn thing down--IMMEDIATELY!"

When and where will we see the actual donor lists that might make everything crystal clear? Those lists cannot be legally censored frompublic view.

Or can they?

Maxine must have something to hide. I wonder what it could be?

If they were given to Democrats, they weren’t, by definition, illicit, right? /s

I think there’s a list here of some of the donations, not sure if there are others.

democrats have never worried about legality, all they care about is the free ride for merely talking.

January 3rd and beyond is being promoted as promising . . . and I've been burnt too many times, so . . . . we'll see.

This is just another crime to look into de-"legitimizing" the biden _residency.

The politicians (mostly democrat) get to decide whether to keep or return the stolen money.

‘campaign contributions’ (bribe money)

This whole "Donor" class thing or whoever has the most money wins, sucks. That's no way to run a country or elections. Breeds corruption like nothing else.

Seems obvious to me that politicians received stolen money and since records are kept of donations it is incumbent upon them to return it to the investors.

Donations SHOULD absolutely go back to the investors, they are talking about giving it to charities, these NGO’’s are as corrupt as the politicians, NO WAY the
money goes back to the people who were swindled!!!

The list at your link seems to be very comprehensive.

Looks like small donations(2K-5K) were sprinkled pretty evenly over both D & R--but once into the millions the heavy bucks go to the Dems--and a RINO or two.

Thanks for the link.

SBF gave money to both sides of the political establishment

So the fair thing to do would be to publish names and amounts and prosecute each an every one of them, democrat and republican. But that won't happen with the lopsided justice system that we have now.

PRO TIP: If you are going to be under federal investigation, it's always best to establish as much "good will" as you can with as many Senators as possible.

I saw an interview at the WSJ where he claimed to have made most of his Republican donations via the "dark web".

Smells like BS, they may be dumb but not that dumb.

And he, and they, will get away with it.

Hey BTW, isn’t it time to send more money to Ukraine?

It would be interesting, and possibly telling, to know which Republicans and Republican PACs are on that list.

Tried repeatedly but the site keeps crashing and reloading for me.

SDNY handling the Sam Bankman Fried prosecution is all you need to know. You’ll recall LA prosecutors arrested Konnech’s CEO Eugene Yu for data sent to Chinese servers and everyone was excited. Then, just as quickly, they released him and dropped the charges.

Look for SDNY to soil the evidence, the prosecution or both.
