I am writing to express my deep frustration and concern regarding the recent presidential pardons granted to the co-founders of BitMEX, a corporation that blatantly violated the Bank Secrecy Act. This decision not only undermines the rule of law but also sets a dangerous precedent for corporate accountability and the misuse of presidential pardon powers. The founders of BitMEX knowingly disregarded anti-money laundering and know-your-customer regulations, actions that have far-reaching consequences for financial integrity and public trust. By pardoning these individuals, we are sending a message that corporate malfeasance can be excused without meaningful consequences. Furthermore, the extension of presidential pardon powers to corporations raises serious constitutional and ethical questions. This issue demands immediate attention and action from Congress to ensure that such powers are not abused in the future. I urge you to advocate for legislative reforms that clarify the limits of presidential pardons and uphold the principles of justice and accountability. As a concerned citizen, I believe it is imperative that we hold both individuals and corporations accountable for their actions. I hope you will take swift and decisive action to address this matter and restore faith in our legal and political systems.
