In my minds eye I doubt that comes close to 40 Million dollars.

It's worse than that list suggests. Kevin McCarthy is tied up in this and used FTX money to help sabotage the midterms. I did a short video on this

McCarthy is a huge friend of Big Tech and is known by many as 'Pelosi Light'. Trump's endorsement of McCarthy might sink his campaign. It won't be long into the new Congress when McCarthy will endorse amnesty and Trump is going to pay a price for that. It'll go from 'build the wall' to 'let all of them vote' and when the number in the amnesty window becomes apparent to everyone, there's going to be an insane amount of anger from people, and Trump will be done.

He's learned nothing.

If Trump intends to win in 2024, he should be pushing as hard as he can to prevent McCarthy from being Speaker, because McCarthy is going to greenlight legislation that will impeded very critical things that Trump will want to do - this is another self-inflicted wound by Trump. This assumes that Trump's chances are not scuttled by the endorsement.

We'd be better if Trump was elected Speaker than McCarthy. Kissing up to McCarthy is never going to stop him from putting disastrous bills on the floor. How does Trump not know this by now? The guy just can't be trusted to make good decisions. I know many here don't like to hear that, but it's true. He's the best campaigner in US history, and the worst personnel manager in US history.

Regarding receipts and discussion of McCarthy and FTX - You can read a long writeup by PoliticalMoonshine on substack or see this article at nationalfile.

A little excerpt: "Armed with corrupt FTX crypto money, Kevin McCarthy spent the 2022 midterms picking winners and losers, with his long-term speakership fantasies at the top of his agenda.

America First candidates and others who couldn’t be controlled by the establishment or, more importantly, couldn’t be bribed into supporting McCarthy for speaker, were sold down the river.

The seats they were fighting for were surrendered to Democrats, and conservatives “in the know” spoke of a “power-sharing” agreement between McCarthy and Democrat leadership, which now appears to be materializing."


NationalFile has a receipt from a guy at FTX donating $2M (iirc) to a PAC called the Congressional Leadership Fund. It is used / controlled by McCarthy. PoliticalMoonshine has an image of the campaign donation receipt.

It is the Georgia Democratic Party’s federal committee. Not that difficult to click the link and look at the statement of organization. LINK

That there was no political motive to his donations. He was just buying access and favor. He wasn’t a leftist.


I see sez the blind man. You must have a secret decoder ring to decipher SFP’s posts.

I often find it hard to grasp what point SFP is trying to make. Yet such an explanation makes sense since SFP thinks “globalism” is just a made-up boogey-man word that has no meaningful currency.

Even assuming it was the case, so what if they did? What would that prove?

He was just trying to deflect from the facts that SBF/FTX was the #2 political donor operation for dem mid term elections. He was looking to put stink on Republican candidates, like they somehow equally benefitted from the dem ponzi scheme.

The truth has been revealed, so his deflection is discredited.

808 was summarizing the oppositional point-of-view of another poster, not offering his own opinion.

To make a long story short, you probably would need to be familiar with that other poster’s contributions on this forum to make full sense of 808’s summation.

Odd you wouldn’t throw sone to the other Presidential candidate to hedge if Biden didn’t win. Almost like he knew something. Hmmm.
