If people wonder what will happen when Trump is done with the DOJ, SEC and FBI, it will be stuff like this not being caught or prosecuted. For all the talk of invading Mexico to stop the cartels from producing fentanyl, this kind of money laundering has much bigger impact. www.ft.com/content/31b9... - ThreadSky

Despite Garland’s overall failure, he did make a lot of moves against the cartels and their money.

So, the Crypto Polymarket CEO was raided by the government one week after the election for taking in bets to sway the election towards Trump. A week before the election he & Musk predicted the same exact outcome for the election. Is all of this a coincidence? With Putin & Musk? I doubt it.

Exactly. Crypto is perfect for this kind of activity. Paul Atkins has been tapped to lead the SEC, Justin Sun invested $30M in Trump’s crypto project… 🤔

IRONY. The ALMOST LAUGHABLE fact of the drug, is that millions of people in the US want and buy it.
HOW ABOUT FIGURING OUT A PROGRAM TO GO AFTER THOSE PEOPLE ON OUR SIDE OF THE BORDER FIRST.

They told us our parties didn’t matter, our government doesn’t matter, our dollar is obsolete, so now the United States is being disunited by outside actors and inside collaborators, and they’re doing it inside our heads. Americans attitude towards our country used to be “we”, republicans broke it.

'not being caught or prosecuted'? Ha! That's laughable...they'll be part of the administration, DOJ, SEC & FBI.

Not to mention human trafficking.

It's a very good point. Everybody assumes there's some zero-sum trade off between actions that are "good" or "bad" in some partisan-inflected sense. But it's more just the vast predatory underworld of organized crimes that only the feds really have the time and resources to be concerned with.

I imagine the Trump administration will make money laundering a priority. Probably not the Trump DOJ though.

Hmmmm... I wonder if this is related to Muskrat's recent interest in UK political donation.
