| − | The '''FTX scandal''' broke in the days immediately prior to, and following the November 8, [[2022 Midterm elections]]. Tens of billions of dollars in American Military Aid to Ukraine, which was allegedly to be used to fight [[Russia]], was cash that [[Ukraine]] did not use to fight Russia, but instead invested into FTX [[cryptocurrency]] exchange. Ukraine received money from the [[United States]], Ukraine "invested" money with FTX, and FTX "donated" the money back to Democrats, who originally voted to send the money to Ukraine. The sham appears to be pure [[criminal]] [[money-laundering]] and criminal [[conspiracy]] to violate [[campaign finance]] laws. | + | The '''FTX scandal''' broke in the days immediately prior to, and following the November 8, [[2022 Midterm elections]].
