I actually think Sam is gonna rot: Everyone else in the cryptocurrency space is happy to see Sam rot, and Sam gave more money to dems, funneling his R spending through cutouts.

I wonder if he tries to push his R spending to try to get it anyway. it also explains why that part has been pushed more

ncweaver.skerry-tech.com•1 day ago

Oh he will. But having it be through a cutout and denying it completely until after things imploded is not going to help. Then again, I didn't think Trump would pardon the Dread Pirate Roberts...

yeah the randomest people getting pardons atp. I imagine there's bribes going around so maybe depends if Sam still has money hidden he can leverage

Why? There’s no shortage of ‘Crypto Guys’

Does he have any hitters at all?

What if he pardons his old friend Ghislaine?

I kinda think Sam getting out would be funny, because we know he will immediately create a new crypto mess that makes the fraud look bad. But Giselle also getting pardoned, by the party that claims big things about the Epstein files right now is really going to be fucked up.

Do we know that's why they were put on leave? Presumably they prosecuted other people and odds are some of them were friends of Trump.

Fried is still persona non grata in the crypto world, as far as I know.
