... sounds serious, but of course just a forgotten footnote if new admin / returning admin too busy starting day #1

however, might still be troublesome, for the magic about prosecution is not just that the prosecutors might win, but also the prosecuted have to spend time, energy and bucks to keep up a good fight

the issue of stuart seldowitz has gone viral in my neighbourhood

optics, what there is of it, appears not-good / un-good / bad / awful.

admittedly unclear who said what when at the get-go, so under law, gut feel has less weight, and shadow of doubt always arguable, thus jury out unless more videos or testimonials by neighbours and doormen etc come to light

street vendor seemed to be exemplary- / well-behaved

leaving it to the court

in poly-ethnic NYC, at advanced state of demographic progression (the one complication that Team China does not sport, that is usually spun as a disadvantage due to lack of diversity - jury definitely still out) en.wikipedia.org , jury might be at the ready harsh and already in-in

reminding me a bit of "Bonfire of the Vanities" en.wikipedia.org

we watch

Former SEC Official Exposes Binance As ‘Big Crypto Cartel’ In Scathing Verdict

In a scathing critique, former US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) official John Reed Stark has brought attention to the alleged criminal violations of cryptocurrency exchange Binance and its CEO, Changpeng Zhao (CZ).

Stark’s comments shed light on the serious ramifications of these alleged violations, dismissing attempts by what he refers to as the “Big Crypto Cartel” to “downplay” the significance of the Department of Justice (DOJ), Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) prosecutions.

Binance Accused Of Facilitating Crime In his remarks on X (formerly Twitter), Stark emphasizes that the charges against Binance and CZ extend far beyond mere “grift and chicanery”. According to Stark, they encompass matters of “life, death, murder, child sex abuse, and other forms of mayhem”, highlighting the severity of the allegations.

One crucial point Stark raises is the alleged failure of Binance to implement comprehensive programs to prevent and report suspicious transactions involving terrorists, ransomware attackers, money launderers, and other criminals.

Stark specifically mentions the failure to identify and report transactions associated with terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hamas’ Al-Qassam Brigades, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).

By neglecting anti-money laundering (AML) and sanctions obligations, Binance is accused of enabling illicit actors to conduct transactions freely on its platform, even facilitating transactions involving child sexual exploitation material and darknet markets.

Trades Involving Sanctioned Individuals Stark further highlights Binance’s alleged failure to report over 100,000 suspicious transactions, including those associated with ransomware attacks, terrorist financing, and illicit activities on the darknet.

Despite being one of the largest recipients of ransomware proceeds, Binance purportedly failed to report these transactions to the appropriate authorities, according to Stark.

Moreover, the exchange allegedly played a role in facilitating transactions involving illegal narcotics, counterfeit goods, fraud-related activities, and other contraband.


Stark further suggests that the seriousness of “Binance’s violations” is underscored by the staggering $4.3 billion payment it was compelled to make to the US government. Stark claimed:

This mammoth settlement reflects the egregious nature of Binance’s conduct, the high volume of its transactions, and senior management’s involvement. Between August 2017 and October 2022, Binance executed more than 1.67 million virtual currency trades on its Binance.com platform between U.S. persons and users in sanctioned jurisdictions and blocked persons.

Overall, Stark’s remarks paint a grim picture of the exchange’s alleged activities, characterizing it as a global felonious enterprise responsible for a devastating crime wave. /b]

Palestinian-Israeli Conflict Accelerates US Geopolitical Decline

President Joe Biden's support for Israel is undermining America's diplomatic standing in the Middle East, with regional players increasingly turning to Russia and China for alternative leadership, Syriana Analysis founder Kevork Almassian told Sputnik's New Rules podcast.
The US is losing its grip amid the Palestine-Israel conflict and alienating Mideast powers by failing to prevent Tel Aviv from bombing Gaza into the Stone Age.
Recently, the Biden administration tried to steal the show by taking the whole credit for the four-day humanitarian pause in the strip. Still, if truth be told, it was Qatar, not the US, who negotiated the truce on the ground.
