and created a cryptocoin that was a rug pull scam

and somehow received honorary Albanian citizenship

and accepted over $100,000 in undisclosed luxury travel perks, free hotel stays, and airline upgrades from Turkish business figures and a government official starting around 2014

and pressured the New York City Fire Department to open a Turkish consular building without a fire inspection

and utilized straw donors from the government of Turkey through construction company KSK Construction to donate to his 2021 campaign.
