The guy donated heavily to both parties, he was just quiet about his donations to Republicans.

    Says SBF himself in the interview he gave on Tuesday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DezodR9hNI&t=774s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DezodR9hNI&t=774s

      Not that it matters to the point that I was making but I wouldn't consider SBF a reliable source of the truth. Remember this was the guy who said "FTX is fine. Assets are fine" and "We don't invest client assets (even in treasuries)". I don't doubt that he did donate some money to the non ruling party but to quote what he is saying as truth or try and attribute a donation by an associated party to him is disingenuous.

    SBF, but if "dark money" isn't concrete enough for you then the other co-CEO, Ryan Salame, donated about $22M openly to Republicans, and in the senate race SBF donated $66.7k to Republicans vs $49.2k to Democrats. https://www.wsj.com/articles/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-team-among-top-political-donors-before-bankruptcy-11668949205 https://www.wsj.com/articles/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-team-amon...
