☆ Sam Bankman-Fried diverted FTX customer funds to donate to political campaigns, authorities charge
  + stars: | 2022-12-13 | by ( Brian Schwartz Dan Mangan | Brian Schwartz | Dan Mangan | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
Federal authorities on Tuesday charged FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried with using what they said was tens of millions of dollars of misappropriated customer funds to make illegal political donations to both Democratic and Republican candidates. He then used those funds to make "large political donations," to make investments and buy "lavish real estate," the SEC complaint alleged. The campaign finance allegations come days after a private watchdog group asked the Federal Election Commission to investigate Bankman-Fried's political contributions. Most of Bankman-Fried's publicly disclosed campaign contributions, which totaled nearly $40 million in the 20222 election cycle, went toward Democrats, FEC records show. "The question is whether regulators, including the SEC, backed off from aggressive investigation of FTX because of this political influence," Painter said.
☆ Elon Musk tweeted 'let the good times roll' after buying Twitter. His first day instead saw heads roll, emboldened trolls, and inspired hoaxes.
  + stars: | 2022-10-29 | by ( Travis Clark | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Twitter staffers feared mass layoffs after Musk fired several top execs. It also didn't take long for speculation to begin about possible layoffs at the company — and for far-right trolls to celebrate with racist tweets. The world's richest man and Tesla CEO tweeted "let the good times roll" on Friday, his first full day as Twitter owner. Needless to say, the first day of Twitter's Musk rule was chaotic. Musk didn't rein in far-right response, nor were fears of mass layoffs tempered within the company.
☆ Right-wing pundits and Russian state media were duped by a fake Trump press release hailing his imminent return to Twitter
  + stars: | 2022-10-28 | by ( Stephanie Stacey | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
A fake press release announcing Trump's return to Twitter began circulating online Thursday night. The fake statement also duped Russian state media and a left-leaning MSNBC show. The fake statement appeared shortly after Elon Musk sealed his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter. TASS, the Russian state-controlled news agency, reported the claim in the fake statement that Trump's blocked Twitter account would be unlocked Monday. Robby Starbuck, another right-wing commentator, said he'd been duped after a news site posted the fake statement.

☆ From Jay-Z to Elon Musk: Inside the rise of Quinn Emanuel partner Alex Spiro, one of the lawyers helping the billionaire break out of his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter
  + stars: | 2022-09-20 | by ( Jack Newsham | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +14 min
Elon Musk has fired many lawyers but hired Alex Spiro for at least five cases, with a mixed record. But there's at least one lawyer who Musk seems to get along with: Alex Spiro. Spiro had been working behind the scenes for the billionaire when he was trying to buy Twitter. But they are hardly the "hardcore street fighters" Musk wants in a lawyer, according to a recent tweet of his. It's not clear how Spiro and Musk connected in the first place, but they seem to operate on the same wavelength.
