I'm not saying the prosecution was unmerited, just that SDNY has signaled that it will prosecute, as opposed to finding a reason to look the other way, as may be expectation of the connected elites. The DOJ for example is telling its lawyers to drop the corruption case against NY police chief Adams as well, for crimes committed in NY state that happen to be under federal jurisdiction [0].

Unclear what business of the DoJ's that is. But, again, this seems totally unrelated to regulation or prosecution of non-NY companies which are merely listed in New York.
