December 17, 2022
Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of FTX cryptocurrency firm, has abandoned his plan to contest his extradition from the Bahamas to the US, it has emerged
The 30-year-old was charged with fraud by prosecutors in Manhattan on December 13, and arrested in the Bahamas, where he lives
He will appear in court in the Bahamas on Monday to announce that he is no longer contesting his extradition, Reuters reported
Meanwhile, focus is turning to others involved, with interest in Ryan Salame, co-chief executive of FTX Digital Markets, the company's subsidiary in the Bahamas
Bankman-Fried was a massive Democratic donor but Salame, 29, is a committed Republican
Salame gave $24 million during the midterms to Republican candidates and committees, while Bankman-Fried gave about $40 million to Democrats

Anon, I really need to know about the fishing tackle in the face, evidently not by accident. What about boogers? Are they designed to be booger savers?
It may/may not be a fembot, the overfilled lips suggest maybe it isn't.
I will never understand and I will always judge. I will judge them, their parents, their friends, I will judge all of it.
Hope the McCarthy /Romney-McDaniel "I like them" is a head fake. POTUS is a smart guy, surely this is a head fake. Please be a head fake.. I'm still hoping the head of lettuce outlasts her. She's living like a rock star, on donations. Not another dime. Zero.
Hahahahahaha
and confirmed
LibsOfTikTok get to laugh last.

It's better than expected tbo. Life is good, very very good.
There is a father IN THE HOME. These people are simply trash whether that be white, brown, black yellow or chartreuse, Christian, Muslim, Buddist or Tree hugging goat sacrificing pagan.
"Her father, Jorge, said that he is 'proud' of his daughter and occasionally likes to appear in the videos to remind people that there 'is a father there'."
"She also claims that the parents complaining about her parenting are just jealous, adding: 'They know their husbands are perving at her.'"
(ya think? that's the whole point isn't it?)

Moving day Citadel billionaire wants home of historic statesman off his $106M property
December 17, 2022
Billionaire Ken Griffin moved his hedge fund Citadel to Miami and asked the city to remove the former home of William Jennings Bryan from his estate.
He purchased the four-acre waterfront property in Coconut Grove from philanthropist Adrienne Arsht.
Arsht, who is known in Miami for her $30 million contribution to the city’s performing arts center, spent a significant amount renovating the home, which she used as a guest house and for social gatherings.
Billionaire Ken Griffin just moved his hedge fund Citadel to Miamiand one of his first orders of business was to ask the city to remove the former home of historic statesman William Jennings Bryan from his property.
Villa Serena, the home of the three-time presidential candidate, who served in the House of Representatives from 1891 to 1895 and as the Secretary of State under Woodrow Wilson, is one of two homes located on the estate Griffin, 54, paid a Miami record $106 million for in September, the Miami Herald reported.

This would be like trying to move Mar-a-lago. That isn't going to fit on a flatbed or 100 and if even possible it's far too expensive and the 4th richest guy trying to get some other poor shmuck to pay the freight is "too rich"
Billionaire Ken Griffin Sues IRS Over Leak Exposing Taxes Paid By 25 Richest Americans
December 13, 2022
Hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin, who founded and helms trading powerhouse Citadel, has sued the Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department for alleged negligence in maintaining safeguards for confidential tax returns after a bombshell report last year cited a trove of IRS data in a series of articles detailing the incomes and taxes paid by some of the world’s richest people.
In a federal suit filed with the Southern District of Florida, Griffin alleged the IRS has “willfully and intentionally” failed to establish adequate safeguards to protect confidential tax return information after nonprofit news outlet ProPublica published an article citing the data in June 2021 and then followed up with several pieces, including some targeting Griffin’s political lobbying.
The suit, first reported by Wall Street Journal, claims the disclosure of Griffin’s tax return information to ProPublica was not “requested by the taxpayer,” and as a result entitles the billionaire to punitive damages totaling at least $1,000 per unlawful disclosure and attorneys’ fees, according to a section of the tax code.
It is a felony for a federal employee to leak a tax return or information about a tax return, but the source of the data remains unknown despite some lawmakers claiming there “is little doubt” the confidential information “came from inside the IRS.” The IRS and Justice Department have stated they are investigating the leak, but no formal charges have been filed.
In a statement, Griffin claimed IRS employees “deliberately stole the confidential tax returns of several hundred successful American business leaders” and called it “unacceptable” that government officials have "failed to thoroughly investigate" the source of the leak.
According to the data, Griffin, who is asking for a trial by jury, averaged an annual income of nearly $1.7 billion from 2013 to 2018 and paid an average effective federal income tax rate of 29.2%—making him the fourth-biggest earner and second-biggest taxpayer in the country.
The Treasury Department did not immediately respond to Forbes’ request for comment.
FORBES VALUATION
Griffin, 54, is worth an estimated $31.9 billion, according to Forbes. Founded in 1990, Citadel manages some $57 billion in assets.
In its initial report last June, ProPublica analyzed 15 years of confidential tax returns and found the 25 richest Americans—including the likes of Griffin, Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos—paid just 3.4% of taxes on wealth growth of $401 billion between 2014 and 2018, while the median American household earning roughly $70,000 per year paid 14% in federal taxes each year. Income tax laws only apply to realized gains (once assets like stocks or real estate are sold at a profit), but ProPublica claimed America's billionaires avail themselves of tax-avoidance strategies outside the reach of ordinary people while still reaping the benefits of skyrocketing asset prices (such as with collateral-backed loans).

Ken Griffin politics
wiki, so sauce-ish
Summary: Griffin is neither GOP nor DEM, Commie or Conservative. Griffin is in love with the almighty buck. He is an opportunist who would steal from yer Granny. imho
>Kenneth G Griffin wiki, interesting read. I hate this guy already..
Griffin moved to Florida to escape Illinois taxes and then claimed it was because a collegue was robbed at gunpoint.
Griffin also thinks the GOP should move away from POTUS and DeSantis is the future of the party. THIS is where the DeSantis warchest is located- in the hands of the 4th richest Mercenary in the USA.

>ECW moar JFK Files Coming
They can't release what they destroyed years and years ago.
From that article: "An internal CIA memo dated February 1964, declassified decades later, shows thatthe agency was aware at least 37 documents had disappeared from the file when it was reviewed in the days after the assassination, including documents related to Oswald that the FBI and State Department shared with the CIA.Later today, we should know more about the parts of the file that are still redacted."
He's going to spend all the millions it takes to propel his "Chosen One" across the finish line, money talks (who doesn't have their hands out?)
Griffin was deep on Democrats, Obama got a pile of cash via all of Ken's entities
