US companies don't need to be "in the hands of the government", we have rule of law.

And Helen Toner was already as much of a fed as you could want; she had exactly the resume a CIA agent would have. (Probably wasn't though.)

Rule of law that can be altered at any moment Patriot Act style is hardly reassuring.

That's how you know it's working.

By rule of law do you mean rule of lobbyists? Laws don't apply to people with wealth and connections.

Without looking it up, what happened to the second biggest donor to the Democrats this year?

Is Donald Trump allowed to run a charity in New York?

So two blatant criminals got caught, big whoop. SBF broke rule number 1 - don't fuck with rich people's money.

You're obviously just coping here. FTX was the "rich connected people", there weren't other even richer connecteder people.

(It's also totally possible FTX still has everyone's money. They own a lot of Anthropic shares that are really valuable. But he's still been convicted because of all the fraud they did.)
