PANews reported on October 24th that according to AXIOS, Joe Lonsdale, a wealthy supporter of US President Trump and co-founder of Palantir, has publicly opposed yesterday's pardon of cryptocurrency billionaire Changpeng Zhao. Zhao was previously convicted of anti-money laundering violations and sentenced to four months in prison. In a post on the X platform, he stated: "I support President Trump. This administration could have been the most outstanding I have ever seen—if it weren't for these pardons. Judged by objective standards, these pardons are completely unjustified. The President has been seriously misled about this matter, and it creates the impression that a major financial fraud is flourishing around him." This criticism, coming from within Trump's political allies, highlights potential doubts about the Trump family's business practices in the cryptocurrency sector.PANews reported on October 24th that according to AXIOS, Joe Lonsdale, a wealthy supporter of US President Trump and co-founder of Palantir, has publicly opposed yesterday's pardon of cryptocurrency billionaire Changpeng Zhao.
