In a conversation with GAP's Michael Sadowsky about giving to a LGBTQ fund, Nishad Singh said he was generally "averse to ~explicitly-woke stuff".

MS: "No one trusted at FTX is bi/gay, right?"
NS: "shoot, unfortunately not"

In the same chat, they describe GAP routing donations through Nishad Singh because Rep. Becca Ballint (D-VT) had publicly denounced superPACs

Kind of incredible to see Keenan Lantz (executive director of Guarding Against Pandemics) talking about encouraging people to talk to him about campaign finance rules and offering access to his compliance people in a chat where they were blatantly flouting these rules

They also spoke about making "dark" donations to political candidates, such as Senator Patty Murray (D-WA)

SBF at one point said that he made public donations to Dems and dark donations to Repubs for optics reasons, but it looks like the dark donations were cross-party

Conversation in the "donations processing" signal chat reveals that Sam Bankman-Fried donated $1 million to Beto O'Rourke, then went back on it. They discussed pressuring the campaign into returning $900k, and pretending the donation was an error to "minimize PR issues for all"
