So, the Dems stole $40MM of the $50MM - i.e., 80% - of the taxpayer money allocated for Ukraine for its party's political purposes???

Do tell....and there's a bridge in Brooklyn you really need to buy right now.

He's playing the shell game or being reckless but apparently Fried used FTX funds/client assets at another company of his Alameda Research.

This isn't about crypto it's about a criminal and crime ie a scheme, con or robbery.

What a bizarre use of the phrase "in other words", they didn't establish any connection between US government support of Ukraine (which is bipartisan not just democrats) and this crypto currency, nor did they establish anything related to rigging elections.

Truly a garbage article. Congratulations.

Correct.

The FTX founder was a MASSIVE Democrat donor.

And was clearly using customer funds.

Cash is speech. Protected by the first amendment. Now y’all want dark money out of our elections?

Welcome to the club.

Citizens united was anti-democratic. Yet constitutional. Just like Wu-Tang said, C.R.E.A.M. Just the facts. Play to win. Amirite?

Fwiw you’re probably buying in to Russian propaganda.

FTX and Fried now under investigation in the Bahamas.

Wonder if we'll see WH officials taking more 'vacations' than usual there...

It's not about the donation it's where the donor got their money.

That's big news, because the liberal media loves to bash crypto.

But it won't make CNN.

Pretty sure most people couldn't tell you how their cell phone works, but they still invest in Apple.

Wow. No wonder Biden is so enthusiastic about supporting Ukraine to the tune of billions of American taxpayer dollars.

1. To ensure the millions laundered by Biden on behalf of the Obama Admin remain secret.

2. To ensure the millions laundered by Biden during the Biden Admin remain secret.

If the Republicans take the House, I would not be surprised if there wasn't an investigation into this corruption.
I read the article you linked to. Couldn't find any evidence that the "crypto slush fund" laundered millions of dollars and sent it to Democrat candidates. Just the writer's unsupported statement.

Have you seen any actual evidence of this?
