#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Pete Hegseth, A Man Of Questionable Judgment

#PeteHegseth's in the news lately because of a "mishap" with a Signal group chat involving possibly top secret information about killing #Houthis. You might think this demonstrates poor judgment.

This is all less surprising if you know that Hegseth is a crypto bro who lost a bunch of money in possibly the most obvious cryptocurrency ponzi scheme in history, #CelsiusNetwork. Hegseth entrusted the group of Russian Israelis running #Celsius with his hard earned money *even after* the CFO of the firm was sent to prison in #Israel for #moneylaundering and organized crime connections.

tl;dr Maybe America should reconsider putting crypto bros in charge of the military.

Retoots appreciated.

The government says his motion to dismiss misunderstands count 2, arguing against something they aren't even claiming. They also go into more detail about how this charge is not contradictory with the commodities fraud charge.

Unsurprisingly, the US prosecutors have opposed Alex Mashinsky's motion to dismiss two of his criminal charges.
