Gemini co-founder Cameron Winklevoss is urging the US Department of Justice (DOJ) to reopen its investigation into the dismissed campaign finance charges against FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried. Bankman was previously sentenced to 25 years in connection with a major financial fraud case. Winklevoss argues that there are still unresolved issues in the FTX fraud case despite Bankman's sentencing. He claims that the DOJ dropped the charges due to complications with the Bahamian government and accuses them of hypocrisy in not pursuing election interference charges. Bankman-Fried is alleged to have funneled over $100 million into political donations to increase his influence in Washington, D.C. The campaign finance charges were dropped in 2023, citing difficulties with the Bahamian authorities. Winklevoss insists that the public has a right to know why the charges were dismissed and how the funds were used to support Democratic campaigns.
