@bok According to a statement released by the US Department of Justice, an Oklahoma man has pleaded guilty to involvement in a cryptocurrency investment fraud conspiracy. According to court documents, Travis Ford, 35, from Glenpool, is the CEO, co-founder, and chief trader of Wolf Capital CryptoTrading LLC (Wolf Capital), a so-called cryptocurrency investment company. From January 2023 to August 2023, Ford will attract investment through WolfCapital's website and other social media and Internet based promotion activities. Ford claims to be a seasoned trader who can generate high returns of 1-2% per day (approximately 547% per year). Ford admits that he does not believe that the promised investment returns can be sustained. Ford made such false promises to entice the public to invest in the company. Ford misappropriated and transferred investor funds to benefit itself and its accomplices, damaging the economic interests of investors. 0 reply

According to Caixin News Agency, Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, stated that during Thanksgiving, party members were subjected to "violent threats," including bomb warnings and false reporting of police information to law enforcement in an attempt to lure the SWAT team to come and harm homeowners. Prior to this, the cabinet nominees of President Donald Trump had also experienced similar incidents. The 'MAGA' he referred to refers to Trump's political slogan of 'Make America Great Again'. Jeffries stated that due to the rapid response of law enforcement agencies, no devices were found, and members of Congress and their families were unharmed during the holiday period. Some Democratic lawmakers from Connecticut have stated that they were targeted for the Thanksgiving event, including Congressman Jim Himes, Rosa DeLauro, and Jahana Hayes. They posted the threats they received on the X social media platform. @tiffatronn 0 reply
