O’Rourke’s people, and possibly other Democrats, may have known something before Sam Bankman-Fried’s investors knew it.
Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)’s “I’ve had a bad month” stands alongside Ron Burgundy’s “Milk was a bad choice” as an understatement.
Investors put something close to $2 billion into his cryptocurrency outfit FTX only to see it evaporate along with SBF’s fortune. For the allegedly defrauded FTX investors looking for their lost money, SBF’s tailor and barber — just a hunch — probably did not get their hands on any of it.
The campaign coffers of people with Ds affixed to their names did contain a lot of this money. But since the scandal broke just days after the election — how convenient, for some! — good luck getting any of it back. Democrats excel at giving away other people’s money, just not their own.
