Not long ago, the word trillionaire only appeared in The Wall Street Journal as hyperbole. It was an obviously exaggerated way of describing an inconceivable fortune—like calling someone a bazillionaire. But now with SpaceX going public, we are today using it for Elon Musk.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified a recall of more than 900 cases of Alfredo sauce at its highest risk level after a supplier recalled a dry milk powder ingredient used in the product due to potential salmonella contamination.

The FDA designated the recall as a Class I event, its most serious classification, meaning there is a reasonable probability that use of or exposure to the product could cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

The recall affects 913 cases of Alfredo sauce packaged in 3-pound, 7-ounce sealed poly bags and 12 bags per case, according to an FDA enforcement report.

According to the FDA, The Coffee Connexion Co., Inc., which is based in Lebanon, Tennessee, voluntarily initiated the recall on May 6, after a supplier recalled a dry milk powder ingredient used in the product due to potential salmonella contamination. The recall remains ongoing.

A representative for The Coffee Connexion Co. did not immediately respond to FOX Business’ request for comment.

The affected product carries UPC 0039954921963 and includes batches 046188 through 046193 with a best-by date of Jan. 12, 2028; batches 047290 through 047296 with a best-by date of Feb. 16, 2028; batches 048029 through 048034 with a best-by date of March 9, 2028; and batches 049089 through 049094 with a best-by date of April 20, 2028.

Sam Bankman-Fried, the former crypto billionaire convicted for fraud in 2023, lost an appeal to overturn his conviction and 25-year prison sentence Friday, Reuters reported. 

A New York jury found Bankman-Fried guilty on two charges of wire fraud and five conspiracy counts in November 2023 for his actions while running FTX, a cryptocurrency exchange that declared bankruptcy in 2022 after once being valued at more than $26 billion.

Bankman-Fried pleaded his case to a three-judge panel of Manhattan’s 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, who unanimously rejected his plea on Friday, calling the evidence against him “conservatively stated, robust,” according to Reuters. 

“While he was publicly reassuring customers, investors and regulators that FTX customer funds were ​safe, he was simultaneously using FTX as his own personal piggy bank, spending customer funds on real estate, ​political contributions, and investments,” Circuit Judge Barrington Parker stated, per Reuters.

Bankman-Fried became a prolific political donor in the years leading up to his conviction. 

While the one-time crypto magnate appeared to strongly favor Democrats with his donations — his $40 million contributions to Democrats in the 2022 midterms made him the party’s second-biggest donor after George Soros — he poured a significant amount funds into Republican coffers as well. 

According to Michael Lewis’ book about Sam Bankman-Fried’s rise and fall, the former crypto billionaire explored whether a large payment could persuade then-former President Donald Trump not to run for president again. Now, Sam Bankman-Fried signaled he’s like a presidential pardon from Trump.

Bankman-Fried made the admission in an interview with Fox Business’ Susan Li, who asked him if he wanted a pardon.

“Absolutely,” he told Li, adding, “It would be obviously, you know, ultimately up to the president, not up to me.”

Bankman-Fried also insisted he was innocent of defrauding or stealing from his customers.

“I didn’t steal user funds either,” he told Li. “Customers have been repaid now 170% or so on their deposits. It’s one of the very few cases where the platform was over-collateralized, where customers were more than made whole. And yet there was, you know, not just a criminal investigation, but a prosecution. And, you know, dozens of years of sentence[s].”

FTX’s bankruptcy estate confirmed to FOX Business that customers are being repaid in full with some getting returns as high as 118%. However, those estimations are calculated using crypto prices from November 2022, a near-bottom in the cryptocurrency market.

Federal prosecutors alleged during the trial that Bankman-Fried systematically diverted billions of dollars in customer deposits to cover trading losses at his private hedge fund, Alameda Research, orchestrating what they described as a financial fraud of historic proportions.
