That is completely missing my point. I’m sure there’s literal rocket scientists who have had to work at Arby’s to make ends meet, but that has nothing to do with Ross lacking the intellect to properly manage one. We’re not talking about immigrant doctors in this thread.

You can watch any documentary on Silk Road. Or for that matter, the Wikipedia article says the same damn thing. But I don’t need to change your mind. You’re some random person on the internet, nothing any of us says really matters to anyone else here. Believe it or don’t, it’s up to you.

This is incredibly stupid. Prison officials will do everything they can to prevent an inmate from moving around assets for VERY OBVIOUS reasons. But, after thinking about it, it may not be so obvious for this echo chamber so let me explain the obvious.

You are an inmate in prison. You made millions doing your illegal thing while free but you hare now doing hard time. You don't like hard time, you want easy or no time. How do you make your life better while in prison. Wait, you have millions. You'll just use that money to have your way with the guards and prison system. Guard giving you trouble? Use your assets that you've amassed to "get rid of them".

The prison system has protocols and processes in place to prevent all inmates from being able to control any assets they have on the outside. This prevents them from committing further crimes, exerting influence, or running an enterprise (criminal or legal) while incarcerated.

That is literally NOT the definition of a lawyer.

I don't think that Ulbricht had the capability to bribe Trump. I think that Lemmy and Reddit users are trying to justify Trump's pardon by saying it was done through illegal activity (bribery) instead of campaign promises. That's why I say they are making up conspiracy theories. Now I believe he can be bribed because of all the felonies he got from issuing bribes.
