Bye, Bye, SBF

FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s spectacular rise and fall in the cryptocurrency industry — a journey that included his testimony before Congress, a Super Bowl advertisement and dreams of a future run for president — hit a new bottom Thursday when a New York jury convicted him of fraud in a scheme that cheated customers and investors of at least $10 billion.

Guilty on all charges. The jury was out just over three hours, including time for supper. That suggests that Sam did himself no favors by testifying.

Waiting on your take on Trump’s “January 6th Anthem”.

That's a thing?

Everyone who supports Trump falls into one or more of these categories:

1) Racists;
2) Christian Talibanistas;
3) Russian sympathizers;
4) People who hate democracy; and
5) Morons.

Perhaps Sam can through his hat in the ring as a VP candidate. It would own the Libs.

Looks like SBF bit off more coin than he could chew.

Prison food will about the same consistency.
