[ShockerPrez]

Man, if this were a republican donor... Remember when the media constantly associated Enron with the GOP?

Oops. Sam Bankman-Fried’s implosion took down Democrats’ second-biggest donor with it as the party gears up to regulate crypto.

TLDR; yes or no, Edward Scissorhands donated $40 million to the Dems??

Not quite. ES also known as SB-F donated 39.8 M. to the Dems for the mid-terms.

Quoted below.
"The 30-year-old Bankman-Fried has been a major force in Democratic politics, ranking as the party’s second-biggest individual donor in the 2021-2022 election cycle, according to Open Secrets, with donations totaling $39.8 million. That ranks only behind George Soros."

This article also says he will or was going to spend north of $100 M. by May, and maybe up to $1 Billion for the 2024 elections. I've seen other places that he intended to up his donor spending for Democrats going forward if Trump was in the race (which he just announce),

quoted below.
"What’s more, he had promised to spend far more on Democrats moving forward, predicting in May that he’d fund “north of $100 million” and had a “soft ceiling” of $1 billion for the 2024 elections."

$1Billion doesn't look plausible now with his bankruptcy problems and possible prison time.

Ooof

[ShockerPrez]

If I had a billion dollars, the last thing I would really care about is an effing politician. I would be more concerned with the mooring situation for my yacht in the South Pacific.

I'd rather hire a top notch accountant than bribe politicians

[WuDrWu]

By the time you're a millionaire, much less a billionaire, you'll have had a top notch accountant for some time or you won't be a millionaire very long.

Sam B-F's family has been very left wing, and has organized donors to the far left wing of the Democrat Party for years. His father (Joseph Bankman) and mother (Barbara Fried) are Law Professor's at Stanford Law School, and his brother (Gabe Bankman-Fried) has followed suit with his family as well. They have paid to push left wing pandemic policies, Ukraine policies, and help people like Elizabeth Warren for years. These policies would be perceived by most Americans as ultra left wing.

Seeing as how they are such fans of left wing policies, I would have expected them to basically give away all their money and live a simple life. I mean, isn't that what communism and socialism is? Did he happen to pay his "Fair share?' From each according to their means, to each according to needs.... or something like that. I can't remember the stupid sayings. All I know is that these clowns or smart enough to amass a billion (usually through fraud), but yet still dumb enough to give money to grifters and con artists who produce approximately dick.

GOP now going all in on Hunter / Sleepy Joe illegal dealings with China. Glad to see it.

[WuDrWu]

I personally don't see the "tit for tat" approach being a winning formula for the GOP. If they take that shot, they better hit dead center or they will pay a huge price I'm afraid.

If you are a Conservative Republican Congressman, who just won a 2 year term, there is no way, their patrons don’t feel strongly that The Big guy is President Biden and that Hunter, and Jim Biden have been with him using their relationships with the Ukraine, and Chinese Governments have resulted in lots of family money. The collusion with their family, and the Green Movement, and the Chinese government looking for cheap energy (that often isn’t Green) such as Natural Gas is unbelievable.

Whether or not, these corrupt individuals receive behind bars consequences is another matter. Our courts don’t always hold the rich and powerful accountable.

[MikeKennedyRulZ]

Playing nice and timid hasn't worked at all. Time to take the gloves off unfortunately.

[Kung Wu]

We need a special investigation.

[ShockerPrez]

We know Biden is corrupt. All politicians that have been in Washington for that long are. I don't really care how it looks. If there is corruption, it needs to be investigated because that is their F****** job to erradicate it with extreme prejudice. Optics be damned. It's the law. You have 2 years, you need to try your hardest to expose it if possible.
