Thomas Lifson and other observers have noticed the strange kid-glove treatment that accused crypto-fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried has been getting since his arrest in the Bahamas after reportedly misappropriating and losing billions in customer funds.
It was natural to note the huge campaign funding Bankman-Fried delivered, particularly to Democrats, at least $40 million, making him their second-largest donor.
But now another shoe seems to be dropping, based on this report from Bonchie at Red State here:
Sam Bankman-Fried, the man at the center of the FTX scandal, is back on US soil after having been extradited from the Bahamas to face federal charges. Naturally, because our justice system is about as coherent as a two-year-old quoting Shakespeare, the notorious fraudster was immediately granted bail and is now spending the holidays with his family. The American oligarchy is alive and well.
But I digress, there’s a lot more to the FTX scandal than just Bankman-Fried’s fate, and one of the more interesting aspects of the entire ordeal is just how close many Democrats were to him. In fact, according to Politico, a Democrat operative and close advisor to Bankman-Fried named Sean McElwee had a direct backchannel setup with the White House.

Wow, think how many more mail in votes they will have to create now.

$40 Billion laundered to key regulators and politicians, with only a few pieces of pricey real estate to show for it.
Don't expect Keepers of Odd Knowledge to ever testify in court.
And then, having demonstrated the complete vulnerability of the concept, they will proceed to impose it as the new global standard.

Using BLM to fund DNC and now using BankmanFraud to launder money for the DNC. I wonder how much “honest” money the Dems actually make.
$0.00.
Democrats do not represent middle America or low wage workers. They are the party of corruption and the super wealthy.

Always remember: 10% for the big guy.
Mitch McCrooked says we should move along and not worry about all this dirty FTX money floating about (in his bank account)
