1. Jonathan Jackson is here to serve the public by baiting more working class minorities into losing their savings on cryptocurrency speculation. Now that the crypto con is plain to see the whales need new marks, whoops I mean unsophisticated investors, more than ever to keep the pyramid propped up.

2. It’s this years’ version of support from the payday loan industry. You are defined by the company you keep.

4. Jackson said he was going to file his personal disclosures on Tuesday. Did he happen to say what Tuesday he had in mind?

7. This mega-donor has many of the same background and interests as Jesse Sullivan, except he made billions and operates out of Bahamas, (previously Hong Kong). His interest is in avoiding SEC regulation of Crypto-associated markets. One of his companies has an office in Chicago.
