Cryptocurrency billionaire broke the bank for Dems

Amid all the jubilation and gloating by Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer and pals over the Democratsโ€™ better-than-expected showing in the midterms comes a disturbing story that may explain something about how they won such a curious election.

Bidenโ€™s second-biggest donor, cryptocurrency billionaire wunderkind Sam Bankman-Fried, a k a SBF, saw his business file for bankruptcy days after the election, but not before pumping $40 million into the Democratic Party to spend on โ€œget-out-the-voteโ€ and other shadowy ballot-harvesting mechanics for the midterms.

The shambolic 30-year-old whiz kid, once said to have been worth $16 billion, had spent $10 million helping get Biden elected in 2020.

SBFโ€™s mother, Stanford law professor Barbara Fried, also is co-founder of left-wing political action committee Mind The Gap, which has raised a reported $140 million to help Democrats win elections through the same โ€œget-out-the-voteโ€ grift.

A more unlikely billionaire you could not find โ€” and of course his money was built on thin air. A math genius with poor social skills, SBF reportedly lived in a โ€œpolyculeโ€ โ€” a polyamorous relationship with multiple people โ€” in a luxury penthouse with about 10 co-workers in the tax haven of the Bahamas, where his collapsed crypto exchange FTX was headquartered.

Otherwise, he was sleeping on beanbags in his office, eating vegan fries and, according to his own Twitter feed, popping amphetamines and sleeping pills to regulate his chaotic sleeping habits.

Now Reuters is reporting that between $1 billion and $2 billion of customer funds have vanished from FTX, conveniently after the Democrats safely spent his money.

At last report, SBF and his mysterious co-founder, Gary Wang, were being held โ€œunder supervisionโ€ by Bahamian authorities after reportedly planning to flee to Dubai, according to fintech publication Cointelegraph.

It is a stunning fall to earth. The financial media and big investors have feted the young billionaire as a saint who shunned earthly pleasures like Lamborghinis and Rolexes, but lived only to give away all his money and make the world a better place.
