“… KuCoin presented another opportunity to send a message to the markets that it took its crypto oversight seriously.

Based in the Seychelles, KuCoin had just agreed to pay nearly $300 million after pleading guilty in a case brought by the Justice Department, which said it had flouted laws designed to catch criminals and prevent illicit transactions. KuCoin had also tentatively agreed to settle charges the C.F.T.C. brought against the firm for running an unregistered operation.

Ms. Pham did not have the authority to simply kill the case. She needed to enlist a majority of the commission. With two Democratic commissioners still serving, her prospects of that were dim.

As a solution, the staff attorneys did the next best thing. They began rewriting the proposed settlement, citing in court an executive order by Mr. Trump that called for a friendlier stance toward crypto.

While negotiations with the C.F.T.C. were still underway, KuCoin announced last year that it would start offering two new cryptocurrencies created by World Liberty Financial, the Trump family’s start-up crypto venture. The listing of those digital coins was a boost for World Liberty, giving it credibility and access to more customers.

The case dragged on, with the C.F.T.C. finally settling with KuCoin in March of this year. Its parent company was fined $500,000, a fraction of the multimillion dollar penalty the agency’s attorneys originally expected.

In a statement, KuCoin said its decision to offer World Liberty’s coins merely reflected “the ordinary course of its business” and had nothing to do with the charges it faced. A World Liberty spokesman said that many exchanges list its coins.…”

The extortion and grift pile higher than the Washington Monument.
 
All this Trump-grifting is really the Democrats fault. If we had just let him get this all out of his system from 2016 to 2020, then things would be all better now with DJT, Jr. in the White House. Barron was born in March 2006, he can run for President in the 2044 election. So that leaves the 2024 and 2028 (DJT, Jr), 2032 and 2036 (Eric Trump), 2040 (Ivanka) and the Barron can serve (2044 & 2048). If we are still having elections by then.

Who needs elections? The line of succession is clear.
 
"On Truth Social, Trump has repeatedly promoted Stake, an unregulated online casino that, according to state gambling regulators, is operating illegally. Trump publicized Stake alongside the UFC match being held at the White House on his 80th birthday, June 14. He posted AI-generated images featuring himself, UFC CEO Dana White, and the Stake logo on April 9, May 8, and twice on May 20.

Why is Trump lending his image — and the White House itself — to this kind of scheme? One possible answer was included in the May 20 FEC filing of MAGA Inc., the primary Super PAC connected to Trump. On April 27, Bijan Tehrani, the co-owner and co-founder of Stake, donated $1 million to MAGA Inc. Tehrani, a billionaire who resides in Australia, is able to donate to MAGA Inc. because he was born in the United States. Tehrani is a named defendant in the California lawsuit, which alleges Tehrani “created, directed, controlled, knowingly profited from, and otherwise knowingly participated in the illegal conduct.”

Overall, Stake.us is facing more than a dozen lawsuits, including consumer class actions, across the United States. As a result of legislative and regulatory actions in recent years, Stake.us is now blocked in at least 17 states."

Good grief. It’s like the Trump family and cohorts are inventing new ways to be corrupt just for the thrill.
