You have some serious cognition issues and are just making up your own fantasies on a subject you clearly know almost nothing about.
I'll try for a dozenth time: do you have any professional accomplishments of your own or academic credentials beyond a HS diploma?

You're a dishonest fuck and have serious blindspots if you can't admit that the left would be going apeshit with 24/7 wall-to-wall coverage about election interference and money laundering if this guy was a MAGA guy then they'd use him to smear Trump and his base and all republicans, but they're quiet for SBF, gee I wonder why? Cause anything the left does to support their regime is a-okay and the right...just cause they exist, must be stopped at all costs.

Election interference?

Seems like a weird inference that "the left" is supposedly ignoring this. The same "left" that runs all the letter agencies that Indicted SBF? Dude isn't exactly viewed as anything other than an obvious conman from all mainstream coverage I've seen.

“You can pay you bail for this arrest related to fraud by paying with your fraudulent money”

It’s cleaner money than the gubment slinging around and paying their lawyers with. SBF didn’t use a gun.

 

[Fluffernutter]

lol not at all.
I actually have access to a lot of nonpublic Facebook posts SBF made in his late teen thru college years via him being a FB/crypto friend of a guy I was friendly with in Uni.
The posts are all funny/sadly that of a total math and science nerd who kept an insulated friend group almost exclusively of other talented-gifted nerds from well off families that went to places like Stanford.

Have you been subpoenaed yet?

Fucking cunt.

The former boss of collapsed crypto exchange FTX has been hit with four new criminal charges accusing him of conspiring to make illegal political donations and to commit bank fraud.

Mr Bankman-Fried now faces a total of 12 criminal charges.

Regarding the latest charges, prosecutors accused Mr Bankman-Fried of conspiring with two other former FTX executives to donate tens of millions of dollars to influence US politicians to pass laws favourable to the company.

The donations were allegedly made through "straw" donors or with corporate funds, allowing Mr Bankman-Fried to evade contribution limits, prosecutors said.

They claimed Mr Bankman-Fried told one executive to donate to left-leaning candidates and the other to Republicans, with many donations funded by his Alameda Research hedge fund and including FTX customer funds.

Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of failed crypto firm FTX, has been accused of bribing at least one Chinese official.

In new charges unveiled in the US, officials accuse the entrepreneur of authorising a bribe of "at least $40m" (£32.5m) to try to gain access to trading accounts frozen by Chinese authorities.

The updated indictment says Mr Bankman-Fried authorised the bribe after Chinese authorities froze accounts holding roughly $1bn (£811m) worth of cryptocurrency that belonged to his trading firm, Alameda Research.

The accounts were released after the transfer, which went to a private cryptocurrency wallet, according to the filing.

The alleged bribe followed months of other efforts to access the funds, which Mr Bankman-Fried believed were frozen as part of an investigation into another trading firm, it said.

The incident happened before FTX's dramatic collapse last year, when reports about the company's finances led to a rush of withdrawals, pushing the firm into bankruptcy.

solid swindle.

it's solid until the part where the guy goes to prison for the rest of his life. At that point these plans (such as with Bernie Madoff) don't actually sound so great anymore.

it's really sad that you consistently fail to read what you post. You'd look like a dumbass far less if you just spent 20 seconds reading the article.

FROM THE ARTICLE
KEY FACTS
The campaign finance violation charge was among eight counts present in the DOJ’s original indictment—which also includes wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering—in December.


In a filing late Wednesday addressed to New York federal judge Lewis Kaplan, the DOJ said they had been informed that Bahamas “did not intend to extradite the defendant on the campaign contributions count.”

In adherence with the government’s “treaty obligations” to the Bahamas, the DOJ informed Kaplan it “does not intend to proceed to trial on the campaign contributions count.”

the dork got off on a technicality due to an international treaty, not some dipshit conspiracy theory.

lmao you're such a shill. They already have him in custody. They can charge him with whatever they want and say fuck you to the Bahammas and all the people that use them as money havens like this guy. "Oh because the Bahammas don't want him to face this charge, that says it all, let's drop it!!"

Sorry this all butt hurts you so much, and you're so easily triggered <45><45>

"the government said so, so it is true!!!" - @AWilder Every. Single. Time, lol

buddy i'm not butthurt at all. i think he should be charged. But the reason he isn't is because America takes it's international treaties seriously. If it didn't take them seriously then why would anyone trust America? Is this some sort of cuck fetish of yours? looking like a fool over and over again? on a meta level even.

Lol, so this guy can be facing these charges for how long now? Since December? And on the DAY of the trial, they get a one page letter from the Bahammas saying, "oh we decided we did expect those charges, over half a year after being charged, please dont do this". And their response is "ok!"

like none of this was addressed before and then gets dropped with no discussion? Y'all some big time morans

read your own article you posted you fucking moron. THE EXPLINATION IS IN THE ARTICLE YOU POSTED.

Since you are too fucking dumb to read the article after I already posted a portion of it discrediting your dumbass CT, here is an additional segment of, again, the article YOU posted that explains why this is happening. SPOILER: ITS NOT SOME RIGHT WING DORK FANTASY CT

This is not the first instance where the terms of Bankman-Fried’s extradition treaty have impacted the charges brought against him. Last month, the DOJ informed Kaplan it was prepared to try Bankman-Fried on eight counts brought against the FTX founder in its original indictment in December last year—temporarily forgoing the five additional charges that were filed earlier this year. Under the terms of Bankman-Fried’s extradition, any additional charges brought against him would need to be approved by the Bahamian government. A court in the Bahamas has blocked the country’s government from approving the five additional charges—which include bank fraud, operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business, and bribery—until his attorneys have a chance to fight them.

Shilling for corporations isn’t enough, now y’all simping for crooks that play pretend. This guy isn’t a Democrat, he simply found a team of corrupt players willing to back him up.
