    His co-president gave over $20M to republicans and some republican congressmen were among his staunchest defenders and were actively trying to prevent the SEC from investigating. It would behoove people to read a little bit about the case before they start pontificating on their pet conspiracy theories. I saw elsewhere you're now claiming that SBF was sleeping with Gensler's niece which is a straight lie as far as I can tell? I think it's just a mistaken reference to Caroline Ellison's dad working in a different department at MIT when Gensler was there? https://www.opensecrets.org/outside-spending/donor_detail/2022?id=U0000004758&type=I&super_only=N&name=Salame%2C+Ryan+D.+%26+Susan https://www.opensecrets.org/outside-spending/donor_detail/20... https://twitter.com/RepTomEmmer/status/1504117902080942084 https://twitter.com/RepTomEmmer/status/1504117902080942084? https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-sec-chair-ftx-ceo-daughter-679417036876 https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-sec-chair-ftx-ceo-daug...
