Read MoreProsecutors Compared One Of Sam Bankman-Fried’s Defense Strategies To ‘Dumb And Dumber’
The Sam Bankman-Fried trial is afoot, and it is not going well for him. The head of the disgraced cryptocurrency exchange service FTX (and once-potential presidential candidate) has been raked over the coals as he attempts to deflect charges of fraud. An accomplice and alleged former ex has even ratted him out, with receipts (while […]
Read MoreHow Michael Lewis’s Book on Sam Bankman-Fried Went Off the Rails
This central section of the book is its weakest. Lewis does not understand cryptocurrency—he admits explicitly, in a bizarre footnote, that he finds crypto “elusive” to understand—and makes a poor guide for an already convoluted tale.

Naturally, Newsom doesn’t have to actually keep his promise about appointing a Black woman. In 2021, when Kamala Harris resigned from her Senate seat to become vice president, Newsom appointed Alex Padilla, who became the state’s first Latino senator. But assuming he does stick to his word, there are still some options. Names that have […]
