Manage episode 349856783 series 2606134
Rep. Lance Gooden discusses Sam Bankman-Fried, FTX collapse, and the new FTX CEO’s testimony before the House Financial Services Committee. The Texas Congressman urges his fellow members of Congress to return money received from FTX campaign contributions saying, “we've got politicians that have taken hundreds of thousands of dollars, in some cases, some of these committees have, and they are not making proactive efforts to return the money. And if you're a politician that has taken money from [Bankman-Fried], you should have already been in touch with the bankruptcy court and saying, ‘Hey, you guys, let me know where to send the check,’ Because this is stolen money, it wasn't his and it shouldn't be mine.” The Member of the Financial Services Committee says that the “stolen money” should be given to “do all we can to make people whole that have have lost money in the scheme.”
