    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Check your IQ again.

        Nobody disputes that he gives lots of money to Dems. It’s the idea that he suddenly, years into the project, decides to charge Ukraine for it that is ridiculous.

        You were warned.

              @George-K I was reading that Caroline Ellison's father is the dept head of economics at MIT and her mother is a eon comics professor there. When she (Caroline) was 8 years old, she wrote a economics paper on toy pricing at Toys are Us.

              She is probably alot of fun at parties!!

                The new CEO is getting paid $1300/hr.

                (But, it is quite a specialized skill set, so he is probably worth it if he can figure out the USD billions that are floating around).

                    Under FTX Acquisitions, they missed Democrats.

                      NEW PROVIDENCE, Bahamas, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX, his parents and senior executives of the failed cryptocurrency exchange bought at least 19 properties worth nearly $121 million in the Bahamas over the past two years, official property records show.

                      Separately, attorneys for FTX said on Tuesday that one of the company's units spent $300 million in the Bahamas buying homes and vacation properties for its senior staff, and that FTX was run as a "personal fiefdom" of Bankman-Fried.

                              Ha. The NY Post buried it in p16 of a piece about his sex life.

                              I guess Murdoch inc wants to keep the SBF-Democrats narrative in play.

                                The narrative, which is still in play, is that soulless opportunists can be counted on to publicly espouse leftism. Obviously.

                                    I am sure that theory about money flow does not hold up to scrutiny. It is prominent in your mind because it's an easy win for your tribe, while the more important and meaningful narrative remains intact. SBF sought social advantage, and he did so by publicly siding unequivocally with the Dems.

                                      Ok sure the GOP talking point can become “if you want to be high status join the other party” but somehow I don’t think that’s how Fox News will play it.

                                        It works perfectly well as it's already being played in pieces not devoted to the conspiracy theory you're dunking on. That the Dems are the party of soulless principle-free social climbers. I'm sure that narrative has more of a kernel of truth to it than the ever-popular narrative about the Republicans being the party of racists.
