When I was investigating Schuster I wondered if he was someone who got in over his head or if he set out to deceive people The ppl around him - a lot of them were employees, friends and family members who had invested - were convinced he had intentionally deceived them

Schuster pleaded not guilty in May.. he changed attorneys and now 9 mos later he intends to plead guilty to the securities fraud charge he faces up to 20 years in prison

Scott Rechler recapitalized 75 Rockefeller Plaza at a valuation somewhere around $200M. It took a major restructuring to a loan from just 3 yrs ago that would've valued the 33-story tower at more than 2x that figure therealdeal.com/new-york/2025/…

@SullivanSaysSC @NewYorker It seems like they were past moralizing at that point. But the story def points out how his single mindedness isolates him from some of the other factions in Trumpworld

@ByRichBockmann I’ll give a read, Rich. Could you tell me in meantime whether the piece offered the viewpoint that that’s a particularly piss-poor character trait to bring to public service? Someone should offer that counter-notion as a matter of intellectual integrity. I hope @NewYorker did.

Here's a great bit from the New Yorker's profile on Howard Lutnick: Lutnick, who invests in Tether, invited a lobbyist from the company to a Trump admin group on regulating crypto “It is biologically painful for him to miss a business opportunity" newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…

here's another: Nevertheless, one person close to the Administration told me that many in the White House view Lutnick as “disreputable, so when you need to have a bad guy, people blame him. He’s not seen as a real actor. He’s an errand boy.”
