The main surprise for me is that something is happening against a rich cop-connected grifter.

I think the feds had no choice. Every few days now there's news of yet another resignation, phone seizure, or FBI house raid. The scope is crazy. For all intents and purposes - Adam's administration seems like a 21st century version of Tammany Hall.

He's also a cryptobro, so like Tammany Hall, he's into the cutting edge grifts of his time.

Haha - that had totally slipped my mind. I guess it's only a matter of time before Neo Tammany Hall reaches all the way to Silicon Valley.

He is connected to wrong people, he got no wall street connect (evidently), its all petty shit

Arguably his cryptobro shit was sort of Wall Street adjacent, but maybe not closely enough.
