Phil's Brother From Another Mother... Vindication....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When It Smells Like Presidential Depends You Know Shenanigans Are Afoot...

 

 

NEW YORK, Dec 29 (Reuters) - U.S. prosecutors said they do not plan to conduct a second trial against Sam Bankman-Fried, who was convicted last month of stealing from customers of his now-bankrupt FTX cryptocurrency exchange.

In a letter filed on Friday night in federal court in Manhattan, prosecutors said the "strong public interest" in a prompt resolution of their case against the 31-year-old former billionaire outweighed the benefits of a second trial.

Prosecutors said that interest "weighs particularly heavily here," given that Bankman-Fried's scheduled March 28, 2024, sentencing will likely include orders of forfeiture and restitution for victims of his crimes.

Jurors on Nov. 2 convicted Bankman-Fried on all seven fraud and conspiracy counts he faced. Prosecutors had accused him of looting $8 billion from FTX customers out of sheer greed.

Lawyers for Bankman-Fried declined to comment.

Bankman-Fried had faced six additional charges that had been severed from his first trial, including campaign finance violations, conspiracy to commit bribery, and conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business.

 

SCREECH.....    HUH??

 


 Read that again:


Bankman-Fried had faced six additional charges that had been severed from his first trial, including campaign finance violations, conspiracy to commit bribery, and conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business.

 

Now why would they separate those charges?? Inquiring minds want to know..... 

Could it be that there were campaign irregularities that the U.S. prosecutors did not want to be made public?

Let's rewind to December 2022 <<<<<<<<<

Disgraced FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried faces a litany of charges tied to the collapse of his cryptocurrency exchange. But along with being an outsized figure in crypto, Bankman-Fried (nicknamed SBF) is also one of the largest political donors in American politics, and has been accused of violating campaign finance laws as part of a scheme to illegally funnel millions of dollars to candidates and political action groups ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.

  /snip

Bankman-Fried contributed more than $70 million to election campaigns in less than 18 months, placing him among the nation’s top political donors. He personally gave at least $40 million to politicians and political action committees ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, mostly to Democrats and liberal-leaning groups, making him the second overall top donor to Democrats, only behind George Soros, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

  /snip

Other lawmakers that received maximum donations from Bankman-Fried include Democratic Senators Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire, and Cory Booker of New Jersey; and Republican Senators Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine.

  /snip

In total, federal election filings show that Stabenow and Hassan were the candidates to receive the most money directly from Bankman-Fried this year, at over $20,000 each.

 

Nah, ‘Trust the science’.

 Nothing to see here.... Move along......

BTR*...

 

 /blink/

  *back to reality.

and just like that it's back to the salt mine. 

I like my current employment so it's not something I dread everyday. As with

any job there are good and and not so good days. This past week was quiet so I worked

part time and took some vacation time. Things to do around here, the holidays etc.


 Getting up in the dark and getting home in the dark kinda sucks. I think that's the worst part.

I'm looking forward to the longer days and warmth of the sun.

 Lately it's been mild around here, and only rain and many gray days. Sooner or later

we will be hearing about bombogenisis and snowmaggedon and cats and dogs living together.

I know the weatherpeople are dying to start the hype to sell more bread and milk.


I'll be around.

Another Year In The Books.....

 

Sometime in the mid 1960s

I'm just sitting here drinking my covfefe realizing it's been 61 years.

 In some respects it's gone quickly.

Here's some interesting stats when you search your Birthday date: 12-31-1962


 


My oh my, how things have changed when you compare then to now.


So many things have come and gone over the years. 

Girls, friends, houses, cars, family, businesses, benjamins, jobs, etc.

 At any one moment something could have caused a course correction and

things would be totally different. The what if's? are always an interesting rabbit hole

to head down. "What would it be like if.....?"

There are so many things that can roll through your mind.

Every step of the way you choose something or something chooses you and that is what helps

mold where you are at this moment.

When I was young we lived for a time in Greenbelt Maryland and Wheaton Illinois. What if

we stayed there?

When I was young I met a guy that had a small machine shop. That, formed my career for most

of my life. What if I did something different that day?

I spent a year at college in Michigan, what if I stayed?

What if I never started this blog?

What if this, what if that........

There are thousands of what if's that could have changed my course.

Some at your control, some not.

In the grand scheme of things here it is. This is what you have made, gotten handed, or a

mixture of both.  This moment is it. You can't change yesterday or all the years gone by and 

who knows what tomorrow's sunrise will bring?

Today I have chosen to visit with Mom, who is doing good overall, then go to see some friends.

Tonight will be at home just taking it easy with no big plans.

 

I think this would be fun to do around 9pm then I could go to bed early:



The sunrise awaits.

 What ever you are doing for the New Year celebration. Enjoy it and be safe.

I'll be around.

 

Thanks Jeffery, for the sultry birthday song!!
