SBF was Biden’s second largest campaign donor and his mysterious business partner Gary Wang has suspected ties to the CCP. The DOJ will certainly not be looking into SBF.

And I know you won’t believe it, so go listen to Marc Cohodes on the Hidden Forces podcast.

The DOJ is already looking into SBF.

Same DOJ that looked at Epstein? ‘Looking’ is carrying a lot of weight here.

Yes. If you recall, Epstein died in a federal jailhouse awaiting trial and then his girlfriend/madame was tried and sentenced to 20 years in prison.

And after that they kept investigating right? Prosecuted his clients and backers, right? Right?

How does this tie back to SBF?

SBF was not a "Biden Campaign Donor" - he donated to various Democratic candidates and PAC's. You also neglect to mention that FTX's Co-CEO (Ryan Salame) donated $23MM to GOP candidates/PAC's and was the 10th largest GOP donor in the Midterms.

As far as the DOJ goes - they are already "looking into SBF" and if you honestly don't believe he will go to jail for a very, very long time then I have some waterfront real estate in Nebraska that I'd like to sell you...

You just can’t accept that your beloved politicians are crooks.

>his mysterious business partner Gary Wang has suspected ties to the CCP.

What, just because he's Chinese-American? Is there any basis for this or is it just racism?
