House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters informed a group of Democrats that she doesn’t plan to subpoena former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. Waters’ message to her members came at a private Tuesday meeting on Capitol Hill, with part of the discussion focused on Bankman-Fried’s possible testimony at the committee’s Dec. 13 hearing. Bankman-Fried has yet to agree to voluntarily testify to the House committee.

“ So bribing politicians works”
In todays America, bribing politicians is the only thing that works.

This sh@b00n literally believed, I mean
literally believed, that she had the power to exonerate her buddy Scam Bankloss-Fried, if he would just fly in for a day for a few
bon mots before Financial Services.
I'd love to hear the call she got telling her where to get off:
"Lady with the hat, HEY! Do you have any idea how many of us at the White Hospice are trying to unroll this Chinese finger torture device without YOU taking the lead or even the rear! You realize if Fried had showed you just gave him over to the 118th GOP Congress?
JHC! We got SDNY, we got the IRS, the FBI, the SEC, all working 24/7 to roadmap which of us are implicated -- including YOU -- so if you want any chance of getting into the cut-out line before Fried starts naming names before the SDNY attempts to extradite him, STFU!!" .

KEEP IN MIND that Maxine’s husband runs a couple of banks in Los Angeles—has for a LONG TIME.

"There’s so much corruption around this entire mess that it stains all sides."No. That is as lame, as Scam Bankless-Fried's lame attempt at deflecting that question last week, by farcically saying he contributed to "dark money" GOP = patent bullshit.

CMON MAN!
Fried was the 3rd-largest funder for Democratic candidates this election cycle. 40M straight-up, before you even begin to count in the millions funneled into this election cycle by his mother's chairmanship of Democrat Super PAC "Mind the Gap".

Dirty Waters was paid off. And the imbeciles of LA keep electing her. Waters refuses to live among her people. Instead, she resides in a lily white community.

Somehow, I think MTG, Matt Gaetz, and Jim Jordan will want to talk to SBF come January 3Any Republican who "wants to talk to this guy" will have zero power in the upcoming Congress.
Nobody - and I mean NOBODY - in DC wants to hear a peep out of this man.

The Congresscrooks and the Senatorfelons only represent the constituents who can “contribute” to their decadent existence.. that’s why Donald Trump has been vilified.
