POPULARITY
Ponder the thought that Hailey Welsch, Bobbi Althoff, Jake Paul, Sam Bankman, and countless others are actually engaged in high level fleecing operations; taking money from the public via artificial popularity and special connections to the mafia, government, or religious cults. After all, all of these people are Jewish. The former is done with crypto-scams, boxing scams, and podcast scams. Furthermore, with the announcement Jussie Smollett is having charges dropped for his staged hate crime we are reminded of the countless cases of Jews stabbing themselves, lighting their own synagogues on fire, vandalizing their own dorms and cars, etc., and claiming victimhood. The list is exhaustive and involves three recent stories from Canada, the U.S., and Amsterdam, which all include these details. What does it all mean? The issue is not about the Jewish question, but about the validity of any viral story, video, picture, meme, etc. However, the Talmud does instruct Jews in the art of swindling gentiles, killing them, charging them interest, and mocking them and their God. So what can be trusted or taken seriously? Is the world really a stage and we the unwitting audience being robbed? *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Back in the 80's you had the surfer bros out in California and of course the Wall St. bros on the east coast. Time evolves and we had to endure the popped-collar Jersey Shore bros, and most recently we may have run into the most annoying version of them, the crypto bros. And this show is about none other than the king of the crypto bros, Sam Bankman-Fried. SBF (as the bros call him) made a massive splash as he took his company, FTX, to the top of the crypto world in very short order. There were celebrity endorsements, cutting-edge software and lots and lots of money to be made. Until it all came crashing down and the ponzi scheme SBF had been running was brought to light and he now gets share a cell block with Diddy and Luigi. What got Sam into the crypto space to start with? Did his upbringing lead him down the path he went down? Is he going to trim those curly locks in prison? We'll dive into this and a whole lot more in the Sam Bankman-Fried episode of AHC Podcast.

To hear more, visit www.public.newsHi Friends,Please enjoy my talk from the recent Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference in London!MichaelI love AI. I use chat GPT every day, and I encourage my students to do the same. I'm particularly excited about AI's potential to help doctors diagnose diseases before we could otherwise. At the same time, I have to wonder: Is the cause of our problems a lack of intelligence? Will more AI help to solve them? Well, before we look at some of those big problems, I want to tell the story of Sam Bankman-Fried. Sam Bankman-Fried is serving a 25-year sentence for extraordinary, groundbreaking fraud. Towards the end, he tried to pin it on his ex-girlfriend. Does anybody doubt that Sam Bankman Freed was intelligent? My mother's father would say he was probably too smart for his own good. What about the German censorship police, who were just profiled a couple of days ago on 60 Minutes? Is the problem a lack of intelligence? I think we can imagine we've already seen the use of AI for mass censorship over the last several years. Now, the Germans are invading people's homes to look for Disfavored memes and speech that would be legal in all other parts of the world. Does the malady that afflicts the Germans have anything to do with intelligence? (My favorite part of this photo, by the way, is the apparent shame on their faces.)

As a longtime journalist and the co-founder of Transparency International, myboldb friend Frank Vogl has always the nose for a good story. So it was particularly interesting to get Frank's take on the incoming Trump administration, especially since he just wrote an interesting piece about how money didn't buy the election for Trump. But given that the art of the (digital) deal is Trump's only real motivator, what exactly should we expect of a reborn Donald Trump? Might the Trump 2.0 regime, for example, be a semi-legal version of Sam Bankman-Fried/FTX and will we remember this new administration as the Bitcoin Presidency?Frank Vogl is the co-founder of two leading international non-governmental organizations fighting corruption -- Transparency International and the Partnership for Transparency Fund (Frank is the Chair of the PTF Board). He teaches at Georgetown University, writes regular "blog" articles on corruption for theGlobalist.com and lectures extensively. Frank is also a specialist in international economics and finance with more than 50 years of experience in these fields - first as an international journalist, then as the Director of Information & Public Affairs at the World Bank official and, from 1990 to 2017, as the president and CEO of a consulting firm, Vogl Communications Inc.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

He talks about the Village, and the River, but what we really need is a Redoubt. On the Edge: The Art of Risking Everything By: Nate Silver Published: 2024 576 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? There are two different ways of approaching the world: the River, which thinks in terms of numbers, expected values, and quantification and the Village, which is the paternalistic expert class which manifests as the vast bureaucracy. What's the author's angle? I got the impression that Silver just wanted to write about things that interested him. Because of this, his thesis was kind of tacked on. That said, he is a fairly passionate advocate for things that interest him. Who should read this book? Silver is worried that people will skip the first half of the book which is about gambling, but in reality that was the best part, or at least the part I found to be novel. The second part is about Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), AI, and all the stuff you've already heard too much about if you spend much time online. With this in mind, I think there are three reasons to read this book: If you want a deep exploration of high-level poker playing. You have never heard of AI Risk or SBF. If you think my discussion of Silver's model of the Village vs. the River is incomplete. Specific thoughts: An mashup of the election and this book ...

In this episode, A.B. Ridgeway dives into the recent sentencing of Caroline Ellison, former crypto executive, who played a significant role in the FTX fraud scandal, leading to billions in losses for investors. Ellison received a two-year prison sentence and a hefty financial penalty, which has sparked debate about justice in financial crimes. A.B. discusses the ripple effects of white-collar crime, the ethical dilemmas it presents, and the spiritual implications of such actions.Key Takeaways:The Discrepancy in Justice for Financial Crimes The two-year sentence for Ellison, given the scale of the FTX fraud, raises questions about consistency in sentencing, especially when compared to harsher penalties often faced by low-level offenders.The Human Impact of Financial Fraud Financial crimes like the FTX fraud don't just impact finances; they dismantle family legacies, affecting generations and leading to long-term societal consequences.The Importance of Integrity in Wealth Management A.B. emphasizes the role of faith and morality in finance, underscoring that a God-centered approach to money management should prevent such destructive actions. Financial advisors must keep humanity and integrity at the core of their work.Notable Quotes:"This individual stole billions from families, destroying legacies, yet she only gets two years, while others are behind bars for much less.""When you lose touch with humanity, people start to become numbers, and that's a scary thing about finances.""How can a God-fearing person do this to an individual? This is why faith must ground our decisions in finance."

A.B. discusses the ripple effects of white-collar crime, the ethical dilemmas it presents, and the spiritual implications of such actions.Key Takeaways:The Discrepancy in Justice for Financial Crimes The two-year sentence for Ellison, given the scale of the FTX fraud, raises questions about consistency in sentencing, especially when compared to harsher penalties often faced by low-level offenders.The Human Impact of Financial Fraud Financial crimes like the FTX fraud don't just impact finances; they dismantle family legacies, affecting generations and leading to long-term societal consequences.The Importance of Integrity in Wealth Management A.B. emphasizes the role of faith and morality in finance, underscoring that a God-centered approach to money management should prevent such destructive actions. Financial advisors must keep humanity and integrity at the core of their work.Notable Quotes:"This individual stole billions from families, destroying legacies, yet she only gets two years, while others are behind bars for much less.""When you lose touch with humanity, people start to become numbers, and that's a scary thing about finances.""How can a God-fearing person do this to an individual? This is why faith must ground our decisions in finance."

This is a reader-supported publication; you can subscribe by clicking here.If you ever get prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, I wish you luck—because you'll need it. “The Office” has a very high conviction rate—and, like most U.S. Attorney's Offices, the vast majority of its convictions get affirmed on appeal.If you want to maximize your chances of either prevailing at trial or on appeal against the S.D.N.Y., then you should call Alexandra Shapiro (if you can afford her). She's the rare lawyer who can go up against The Office and win—whether at trial, in the Second Circuit, or before the U.S. Supreme Court.An alum of the S.D.N.Y. herself, as well as a former law clerk to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Alexandra is the co-founder (with Cynthia Arato) of a thriving boutique, Shapiro Arato Bach. Having her own firm allows Alexandra to take on cases and clients that she might not have been able to handle back when she was a partner at Latham & Watkins—whether because of client conflicts, the desire of large firms to steer clear of controversy, or Biglaw billing rates (because even if she's expensive, she's not Latham expensive, plus she enjoys more rate flexibility than a large firm).Speaking of controversy, Alexandra currently represents two high-profile defendants going up against The Office: FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, appealing his fraud convictions to the Second Circuit, and Sean “Diddy” Combs, scheduled to go to trial in May 2025 on sex-trafficking and racketeering charges. She discusses these cases (to the extent that she can)—as well as her own interesting and impressive career, her approach to crafting appellate briefs, and her legal thriller, Presumed Guilty (2022)—in the latest episode of the Original Jurisdiction podcast.

But between now and the end of the year, the schedule might get a little funky because of the demanding schedules of my next few guests, plus the holidays.

In March, when Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced founder of FTX, was sentenced to 25 years behind bars for defrauding investors and stealing $8 billion in customer deposits, many saw it as just punishment for a two-faced poser who had spouted a lot of rot about altruism just to mask the rank odor of his relentless greed. Michael Lewis, the famed author of Moneyball and The Big Short, was not one of those people. Through his eyes, Sam looked like an awkward but well-meaning kid whose desire to help the world, coupled with his gargantuan appetite for risk, was ultimately his undoing. And Michael is in a unique position to judge Sam. He spent the months leading up to and immediately following Sam's downfall hovering over his shoulder, watching him operate, learning how he thought. Michael wrote a book about it, Going Infinite, published last fall, right as the crypto wunderkind-turned-pariah began his trial. Now that it's out in paperback and the dust has settled, we invited Michael onto the show to talk about why he was drawn to Sam in the first place, what he thinks of the critics who say he was too easy on the kid, and how we should reconcile our primal desire for simple narratives with the complexity of real life.
