As far as I can tell, he didnt screw anyone.
Biden pretty much put him in prison as part of his war on crypto currency.

Among the crimes CZ *admitted* to in his plea deal was money laundering for Hamas.
This is mind blowing.
I remember when he pled guilty - Im not a crypto guy, but I do follow all manner of finance-related crimes and I thought the sleepy joe DOJ let him off far, far too easy.
The guy is a crook and a grifter of the highest order - and he *literally* facilitated terrorist money laundering.
I just cannot fathom giving this guy a pardon. His sentence was far too light and now with a pardon? Hes free to return to his grifting and terrorist money laundering.

I imagine he'll be quickly run out of Dodge for implying Trump did a single something that was less than Christ-like.

Changpeng Zhao, a Chinese born Canadian who also has a UAE passport. It really is who you know. The big money crowd really takes care of each other.
Meanwhile he hasnt lifted a finger to rescue Tina Peters.

I bet he didnt use Trump coin to screw people. He would serve every day of his sentence if he cost the Trump kids a nickel.

Not much he can do about Tina Peters, since she was convicted on State charges, which a President cannot pardon or commute. Only the Colorado Governor can....................

Harder to recue Peters because it was a State case, not federal.
