“Since President Gustavo Petro came to power, cocaine production in Colombia has exploded to the highest rate in decades, flooding the United States and poisoning Americans,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.  “President Petro has allowed drug cartels to flourish and refused to stop this activity.  Today, President Trump is taking strong action to protect our nation and make clear that we will not tolerate the trafficking of drugs into our nation.” 

Today’s action was taken pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 14059, which targets foreign persons involved in the global illicit drug trade.  

GUSTAVO PETRO

Colombia remains the world’s top producer and exporter of cocaine. Cocaine from Colombia is often purchased by Mexican cartels, who then smuggle it into the United States via the southern border.  It is a scheduled substance that is a significant drug threat to the United States, despite Gustavo Petro’s recent, flippant comparison of the use of the drug to whiskey. 

Gustavo Petro is a former guerilla member who was elected to the Colombian presidency in 2022.  He has provided narco-terrorist organizations with benefits under the auspices of his “total peace” plan, among other policies, which have led to record highs of coca cultivation and cocaine production. On September 15, 2025, because of Gustavo Petro and his cronies’ actions, the President determined Colombia is a major drug transit or major illicit drug producing country and that it is “failing demonstrably” to uphold its drug control responsibilities. 

Gustavo Petro’s erratic behavior has also driven Colombia further apart from its partners in additional ways.  In 2024, he shared confidential information obtained via secure anti-money laundering communication channels, threatening the integrity of the international financial system and leading to the suspension of Colombia’s Financial Intelligence Unit from The Egmont Group.  He also has allied himself with the narco-terrorist regime of Nicolas Maduro Moros and the Cartel de Los Soles. 

Gustavo Petro is being designated today pursuant to E.O. 14059 for having engaged in, or attempted to engage in, activities or transactions that have materially contributed to, or pose a significant risk of materially contributing to, the international proliferation of illicit drugs or their means of production.

TARGETING GUSTAVO PETRO’S ASSOCIATES AND ENABLERS 

Gustavo Petro’s eldest son, Nicolas Fernando Petro Burgos (Nicolas Petro), is considered to be his political heir.  He has served as Gustavo Petro’s campaign manager in Barranquilla.  In 2023, Nicolas Petro was arrested in Colombia for money laundering and illicit enrichment over allegations that he funneled money received from drug traffickers into Gustavo Petro’s “total peace” efforts and election campaign.  Nicolas Petro later admitted to receiving dirty money from a person formerly involved in narcotics trafficking and son of a contractor on trial for financing paramilitaries. 

First Lady Veronica del Socorro Alcocer Garcia was once unconstitutionally appointed by Gustavo Petro to serve as an ambassador “on a special mission.”  A Colombian court later annulled the appointment, deciding that the appointment violated Article 126 of the Colombian Constitution, which prohibits the Colombian president from appointing his spouse or permanent partner. 

Armando Alberto Benedetti Villaneda (Armando Benedetti) has been appointed to multiple high-ranking positions within the Colombian government by Gustavo Petro.  In 2023, audio recordings of Armando Benedetti were leaked in which he discusses his involvement in campaign financing and obtaining votes for Gustavo Petro.  Most recently, in February 2025, Gustavo Petro named Armando Benedetti as Colombia’s Minister of the Interior.   

Nicolas Fernando Petro Burgos, Veronica del Socorro Alcocer Garcia, and Armando Benedetti are being designated today pursuant to E.O. 14059 for having provided, or attempted to provide, financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services in support of, Gustavo Petro.  

SANCTIONS IMPLICATIONS

As a result of today’s action, all property and interests in property of the designated or blocked persons described above that are in the United States or in the possession or control of U.S. persons are blocked and must be reported to OFAC.  In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked. Unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC, or exempt, OFAC’s regulations generally prohibit all transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the United States that involve any property or interests in property of blocked persons.

Violations of U.S. sanctions may result in the imposition of civil or criminal penalties on U.S. and foreign persons.  OFAC may impose civil penalties for sanctions violations on a strict liability basis.  OFAC’s Economic Sanctions Enforcement Guidelines provide more information regarding OFAC’s enforcement of U.S. economic sanctions. In addition, financial institutions and other persons may risk exposure to sanctions for engaging in certain transactions or activities involving designated or otherwise blocked persons.  The prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any designated or blocked person, or the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person. 

The power and integrity of OFAC sanctions derive not only from OFAC’s ability to designate and add persons to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List), but also from its willingness to remove persons from the SDN List consistent with the law.  The ultimate goal of sanctions is not to punish, but to bring about a positive change in behavior.  For information concerning the process for seeking removal from an OFAC list, including the SDN List, or to submit a request, please refer to OFAC’s guidance on Filing a Petition for Removal from an OFAC List.

Washington D.C. / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / September 25, 2025 -  The Federal Trade Commission has secured a historic order with Amazon.com, Inc., as well as Senior Vice President Neil Lindsay and Vice President Jamil Ghani, settling allegations that Amazon enrolled millions of consumers in Prime subscriptions without their consent, and knowingly made it difficult for consumers to cancel. Amazon will be required to pay a $1 billion civil penalty, provide $1.5 billion in refunds back to consumers harmed by their deceptive Prime enrollment practices, and cease unlawful enrollment and cancellation practices for Prime.

“Today, the Trump-Vance FTC made history and secured a record-breaking, monumental win for the millions of Americans who are tired of deceptive subscriptions that feel impossible to cancel,” said FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson. “The evidence showed that Amazon used sophisticated subscription traps designed to manipulate consumers into enrolling in Prime, and then made it exceedingly hard for consumers to end their subscription. Today, we are putting billions of dollars back into Americans’ pockets, and making sure Amazon never does this again. The Trump-Vance FTC is committed to fighting back when companies try to cheat ordinary Americans out of their hard-earned pay.”

The FTC has charged Amazon and several Amazon executives with knowingly misleading millions of consumers into enrolling in Prime, violating the FTC Act and the Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act (ROSCA). The FTC alleged Amazon created confusing and deceptive user interfaces to lead consumers to enroll in Prime without their knowledge. Compounding these deceptive enrollment practices, Amazon also created a complex and difficult process for consumers seeking to cancel their Prime subscription, with the goal of preventing consumers from cancelling Prime. Amazon documents discovered in the lead up to trial showed that Amazon executives and employees knowingly discussed these unlawful enrollment and cancellation issues, with comments like “subscription driving is a bit of a shady world” and leading consumers to unwanted subscriptions is “an unspoken cancer.” 

The historic monetary judgment contained in the settlement is only the third ROSCA case in which the FTC has obtained a civil penalty. It includes:

• a $1 billion civil penalty, which is the largest ever in a case involving an FTC rule violation;
• $1.5 billion in consumer redress, providing full relief for the estimated 35 million consumers impacted by unwanted Prime enrollment or deferred cancellation. This is the second-highest restitution award ever obtained by FTC action.

Additionally, the settlement requires Amazon to stop their unlawful practices and make meaningful changes to the Prime enrollment and cancellation flows by:

• including a clear and conspicuous button for customers to decline Prime. Amazon can no longer have a button that says, “No, I don’t want Free Shipping.”
• including clear and conspicuous disclosures about all material terms of Prime during the Prime enrollment process, such as the cost, the date and frequency of charges to consumers, whether the subscription auto-renews, and cancellation procedures.
• creating an easy way for consumers to cancel Prime, using the same method that consumers used to sign up. The process cannot be difficult, costly, or time-consuming and must be available using the same method that consumers used to sign up; and
• paying for an independent, third-party supervisor to monitor Amazon’s compliance with the consumer redress distribution process.

The Commission vote approving the stipulated final order was 3-0. The FTC filed the proposed order in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington.

NOTE: Stipulated final orders have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court judge.

"Since taking over the Department, I pledged to help place more of the best and brightest Americans into our towers. These latest numbers show our supercharge effort is continuing to hit milestones, and we are making progress on that promise," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. "Our work is just getting started. This Department will continue to use every tool at our disposal to chip away at decades of controller staffing declines because the American people are counting on us."

"Thanks to Secretary Duffy’s leadership, we are hiring controllers at a record pace," said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. "These are the men and women who keep our skies safe and it’s important to invest in their success as we’re building a modern, resilient air traffic system the American people can rely on for decades to come."

Secretary Duffy’s supercharge effort is on track to hire at least 8,900 new air traffic controllers through 2028, including more than 2,200 in FY26.

Additional Information:

In February, Secretary Duffy announced plans to supercharge hiring at the FAA Academy. The FAA has received more than 10,000 applications, referring more than 8,300 to our aptitude testing. Under Secretary Duffy’s leadership, the FAA streamlined the hiring process, accelerating the time-to-hire for these critical positions by shaving more than five months off the old process.

The FAA is focused on filling every seat at its rigorous FAA Academy – 600 in August alone, exceeding July’s record of 550 trainees, the highest number of students in FAA history.

The FAA is recruiting the best and the brightest, reducing training times, retaining experienced controllers and working to allow America’s controllers to have the world’s most advanced technology at their fingertips.

LAS VEGAS, NV / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / September 18, 2025 - The Federal Trade Commission and seven states sued Live Nation and Ticketmaster for tacitly coordinating with brokers and allowing them to harvest millions of dollars worth of tickets in the primary market. Live Nation and Ticketmaster then sell the illegally harvested tickets at a substantial markup in the secondary market, causing consumers to pay significantly more than the face value of the ticket. 

The FTC further alleged in a complaint that California-based Ticketmaster LLC and its parent company Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., (collectively “Ticketmaster”) deceived artists and consumers by engaging in bait-and-switch pricing through advertising lower prices for tickets than what consumers must pay to purchase tickets; deceptively claimed to impose strict limits on the number of tickets that consumers could purchase for an event, even though ticket brokers routinely and substantially exceeded those limits; and sold millions of tickets, often at much higher cost to consumers, on its resale platform that those brokers obtained in excess of artists’ ticket limits.

“President Donald Trump made it clear in his March Executive Order that the federal government must protect Americans from being ripped off when they buy tickets to live events,” said FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson. “American live entertainment is the best in the world and should be accessible to all of us. It should not cost an arm and a leg to take the family to a baseball game or attend your favorite musician’s show. The Trump-Vance FTC is working hard to ensure that fans have a shot at buying fair-priced tickets, and today’s lawsuit is a monumental step in that direction.”

Ticketmaster is the leading provider of tickets for concerts—controlling about 80% or more of major concert venues’ primary ticketing—and it also has a growing share of ticket resales in the secondary market. From 2019 to 2024 alone, consumers spent more than $82.6 billion purchasing tickets from Ticketmaster.

The FTC alleges that in public, Ticketmaster maintains that its business model is at odds with brokers that routinely exceed ticket limits. But in private, Ticketmaster acknowledged that its business model and bottom line benefit from brokers preventing ordinary Americans from purchasing tickets to the shows they want to see at the prices artists set.

The FTC’s complaint against Ticketmaster alleges that:

• Despite implementing security measures, Ticketmaster is aware that brokers routinely bypass such measures by creating thousands of Ticketmaster accounts and using proxy IP addresses in order to purchase event tickets.
• Ticketmaster nevertheless allows brokers to post these illegally obtained tickets for resale on its platform, then profits from the additional fees and markups it unilaterally adds to the resale tickets.
• In fact, a senior Ticketmaster executive admitted in an internal email that copied Live Nation leadership, that the companies “turn a blind eye as a matter of policy” to brokers’ violations of posted ticket limits. For example, an internal review showed that just five brokers controlled 6,345 Ticketmaster accounts and possessed 246,407 concert tickets to 2,594 events.
• Ticketmaster and Live Nation even offer technological support to brokers through a software platform called TradeDesk, which enables brokers to track and aggregate tickets purchased from multiple Ticketmaster accounts into a single interface for simpler resale management. Through TradeDesk, Ticketmaster can identify which high-volume brokers are exceeding ticket limits through the use of hundreds, or even thousands, of Ticketmaster accounts.
• The companies also have consistently declined to deploy additional technology that would more effectively prevent brokers from evading ticket limits because such tactics would decrease their revenue, according to internal company documents. For example, the company in 2021 opted against using third-party identity verification because it was “too effective.”
• In addition, Ticketmaster deceived the American people by advertising list prices for tickets that were substantially lower than the actual cost consumers paid after fees and markups were added. The FTC alleged that Ticketmaster hid the mandatory fees, which are as high as 44% of the cost of the ticket, that it didn’t add the fees to the price of tickets until the very end of the transaction, and still failed to clearly detail the extra fees before consumers paid for the tickets. The fees totaled $16.4 billion from 2019-2024.
• Despite publicly claiming that they support consumers knowing the “full cost of their tickets from the start,” company executives acknowledged internally that Ticketmaster engaged in deceptive pricing and deliberately continued that approach after internal research showed consumers were less likely to purchase tickets when they are informed of the true cost upfront.

The FTC alleges that these practices violate the FTC Act’s prohibition on deceptive acts or practices in the marketplace and the Better Online Ticket Sales Act. The FTC is seeking civil penalties against Ticketmaster and any additional monetary relief that that the court finds appropriate.

The Commission vote authorizing the staff to file the complaint was 2-0-1, with Commissioner Melissa Holyoak recused. The complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.

NOTE: The Commission files a complaint when it has “reason to believe” that the named defendants are violating or are about to violate the law and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest. The case will be decided by the court.

The lead staffers on this matter are Elizabeth C. Scott, Taylor H. Arana, and Claire E.W. Stewart from the FTC’s Midwest Regional Office.

The Attorneys General of Virginia, Utah, Florida, Tennessee, Nebraska, Illinois and Colorado joined the FTC in bringing this action.

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Prescott, Arizona, campus is the ninth school to provide the same thorough curriculum and advanced training technology that is offered at the FAA’s Air Traffic Controller Academy in Oklahoma City. It’s the first program authorized in Arizona.  

“We’re taking aggressive action at the FAA to recruit the best and brightest into our controller workforce by making the training process more efficient than ever. These jobs are critical to keeping our skies safe and with the expansion of our training capabilities through Enhanced AT-CTI schools, we are bolstering our aviation workforce and ushering in a higher volume of controllers beyond our previous capabilities,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy.

“We’re excited to partner with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University on its second campus to strengthen our controller workforce and pipeline,” said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. “The safety of the National Airspace System is our number one priority, and the Enhanced AT-CTI program will help build the next generation of air traffic controllers.”  

“Having both Air Traffic Management programs at Embry-Riddle approved for this critical FAA initiative to fill the air traffic controller pipeline demonstrates the high level of training and education Embry-Riddle provides,” said Embry-Riddle President P. Barry Butler, Ph.D. “We are proud to see our highly skilled, professional graduates immediately join the controller ranks to keep air traffic moving safely and efficiently.”  

During the latest Supercharge hiring campaign that closed on March 17, we received more than 10,000 applications. More than 8,300 of those were referred to testing. Our focus is to get the best and the brightest into the academy and make sure every seat is filled for the upcoming classes. The FAA has expanded onsite Academy training by nearly 30 percent. August saw the highest number of Academy students in training in FAA’s history – over 600 students.  

Additional Information:
Enhanced AT-CTI school students must pass the ATSA, meet the FAA’s medical and security requirements, and pass performance verifications to receive an official endorsement certificate. After meeting these requirements, these graduates report directly to an FAA facility to begin their training.      

This is different than the Standard AT-CTI, where graduates go to the FAA Academy but can bypass the introductory Air Traffic Basics Course.        

The FAA also has a year-round hiring opportunity for experienced controllers from the military and private industry and is enhancing training with modernized simulators to help get new hires through more efficiently.

Schools interested in becoming an E-CTI school can continue to submit applications online year-round.

The FAA identified hundreds of quality system violations at Boeing’s 737 factory in Renton, Washington, and Boeing subcontractor Spirit AeroSystems’ 737 factory in Wichita, Kansas. Additionally, Boeing presented two unairworthy aircraft to the FAA for airworthiness certificates and failed to follow its quality system. 

Furthermore, the FAA found that a non-ODA Boeing employee pressured a Boeing ODA unit member to sign off on a Boeing 737-MAX airplane so Boeing could meet its delivery schedule, even though the ODA member determined the aircraft did not comply with applicable standards. 

Boeing has 30 days after receiving the FAA’s penalty letters to respond to the agency.

The pilot program, known as the Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing Integration Pilot Program (eIPP), will form public-private partnerships with State and local government entities and private sector companies to develop new frameworks and regulations for enabling safe operations.  

"The next great technological revolution in aviation is here. The United States will lead the way, and doing so will cement America’s status as a global leader in transportation innovation," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. "That means more high-paying manufacturing jobs and economic opportunity. By safely testing the deployment of these futuristic air taxis and other AAM vehicles, we can fundamentally improve how the traveling public and products move." 

"This pilot program gives us another opportunity to advance the Administration’s plan to accelerate safe eVTOL and advanced air mobility operations across the United States," said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. "We will take the lessons learned from these projects to enable safe, scalable AAM operations nationwide." 

The eIPP will include at least five pilot projects. It will run for three years after the first project becomes operational. Envisioned eIPP operations include piloted and unmanned approaches to: 

• Short-range air taxis 
• Longer-range, fixed wing flights  
• Cargo 
• Logistics and supply serving emergency management, medical transport or off-shore energy facilities 
• Increasing automation safety 

Additional Information: 

As part of the eIPP, the FAA is seeking participants for a public-private partnership program to demonstrate the viability of new AAM technologies including electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in ways that deliver new benefits to the American public. Applicants must be a State, local, tribal or territorial government with a U.S.-based private sector partner or partners. 

Participants will use piloted, optionally piloted, or unmanned AAM aircraft that will generally be over 1,320 lbs. and may be capable of carrying passengers. Participants will also include technologies enabling safe integration of these aircraft into the national airspace system.

To meet the ambitious goal of implementing a new system within 3-4 years, the DOT and FAA have expedited the procurement process and crafted an innovative, first of its kind federal procurement contract that will incentivize results and holds the integrator accountable for any missed deadlines.

“This is the next important step to making our skies safer and air travel more efficient. To avoid the missed deadlines and mistakes of the past, we’ve designed an innovative process to select and contract with one Prime Integrator,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. “The bottom line: we are working at the speed of Trump, and we will not let government bureaucracy get in the way of results.”

“Thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill, we have the down payment to start building a new system. The next step is getting the integrator on board, and we are on track,” said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. “We are ready to get to work to make sure our controllers have the very best technology.”

Secretary Duffy has made air traffic controller hiring and building a new state-of-the-art air traffic system top priorities.

Additional Information:

By replacing the current system, the FAA will enhance safety in the sky, reduce delays, and unlock the future of air travel. The plan to build a new system also ensures hard-working air traffic controllers have a system they can rely on and one they deserve. 

The FAA will replace core infrastructure including radar, software, hardware and telecommunications networks to support modern air travel. The agency will equip facilities with better technology to reduce outages, improve efficiency, and reinforce safety.

The Prime Integrator will play a key role in managing this effort, including acquiring capabilities, and deploying the new technologies.

This request for comment offers the opportunity for interested individuals and organizations to provide feedback on innovative or novel methods, techniques, or strategies that regulated financial institutions use, or could potentially use, to detect illicit activity involving digital assets.  In particular, Treasury asks commenters about application program interfaces, artificial intelligence, digital identity verification, and use of blockchain technology and monitoring.

Innovative tools are critical to advancing efforts to address illicit finance risks but can also present new resource burdens for financial institutions.  As required by the GENIUS Act, Treasury will use public comments to inform research on the effectiveness, costs, privacy and cybersecurity risks, and other considerations related to these tools. 

As provided in Section 9(a) of the GENIUS Act, members of the public should submit comments within 60 days of publication in the Federal Register by October 17. Comments responding to this request will be publicly viewable at www.regulations.gov.

“Digital assets play a crucial role in global innovation and economic development, and the United States will not tolerate abuse of this industry to support cybercrime and sanctions evasion.  Exploiting cryptocurrency exchanges to launder money and facilitate ransomware attacks not only threatens our national security, but also tarnishes the reputations of legitimate virtual asset service providers,” said Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence John K. Hurley.  “By exposing these malicious actors, Treasury remains committed to and supportive of the digital asset industry’s integrity.”

OFAC previously designated Garantex on April 5, 2022 pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy.  As a result of its central role in facilitating malicious cyber-enabled activities and operating as the exchange of choice for cybercriminals, OFAC is also taking actions under its cyber authorities to designate Garantex pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended by E.O. 14144 and E.O. 14306 (“E.O. 13694, as further amended”).  Grinex, along with Garantex’s executives and partner companies, are also being designated pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.    

This designation builds on OFAC’s September 2024 sanctions against Cryptex and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s identification of PM2BTC, two other cryptocurrency exchanges that have provided financial services to cybercriminals, as well as OFAC designations of five cryptocurrency exchanges–SUEX, Chatex, Bitpapa, NetEx24, and AWEX–that have facilitated illicit activity since as early as September 2021.

AN INTERNATIONAL EFFORT TO STOP CYBERCRIMINALS 

Today’s action is taken in collaboration with the U.S. Secret Service’s Cyber Investigative Section, with assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. 

On March 6, 2025, the U.S. Secret Service, in partnership with German and Finnish law enforcement, took disruptive measures against Garantex’s computer infrastructure, including seizing its web domain and freezing over $26 million in cryptocurrency controlled by Garantex.  On March 7, 2025, the Department of Justice unsealed indictments against Garantex executives Aleksandr Mira Serda and Aleksej Besciokov.  Following the unsealing of the indictments, Aleksej Besciokov was arrested in India.  After these disruptive measures were taken, Garantex moved its customer base and funds to its successor exchange, Grinex, in an attempt to continue operating despite sanctions and law enforcement actions. 

Additionally, the Department of State has announced two reward offers under the Transnational Organized Crime Rewards Program of up to $5 million for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Mira Serda and up to $1 million for other key leaders of Garantex.    

GARANTEX IS USED TO LAUNDER ILLICT FUNDS

Garantex is a cryptocurrency exchange founded in late 2019, originally registered in Estonia, that conducts most of its operations from Moscow and Saint Petersburg.  Analysis shows that over $100 million of known Garantex transactions are associated with illicit actors, including darknet markets and ransomware groups.  In February 2022, Garantex lost its Estonian license to provide digital asset services after Estonia’s Financial Intelligence Unit revealed critical anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) deficiencies and found connections between Garantex and wallets used for criminal activity. 

Most of the funds sent to Garantex, which has maintained accounts for hundreds of thousands of users, came from other cryptocurrency exchanges used for criminal conduct.  Once criminal users place their funds with Garantex, these actors launder their ill-gotten funds using Garantex’s exchange services.  After OFAC’s designation and the Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit’s enforcement action in 2022, Garantex developed infrastructure intended to prevent financial institutions from attributing cryptocurrency wallet addresses back to the exchange, in an attempt to insulate itself and its customers from sanctions.  This has allowed the exchange to continue to custody funds and provide other services to entities and individuals involved in illicit activities.  

For example, Garantex has received millions of dollars in cryptocurrency directly from the proceeds of various Russia-linked ransomware attacks, including those involving the Conti, Black Basta, LockBit, NetWalker, and Phoenix Cryptolocker ransomware variants.  Garantex has also provided account and exchange services to actors associated with the Ryuk ransomware gang.  Ekaterina Zhdanova, a prolific money launderer, exchanged over $2 million in Bitcoin for Tether (USDT) via Garantex.  OFAC previously designated Ekaterina Zhdanova on November 3, 2023, pursuant to E.O. 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy.  

OFAC is designating Garantex pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of, cyber-enabled activities originating from, or directed by persons located, in whole or substantial part, outside the United States that are reasonably likely to result in, or have materially contributed to, a threat to the national security, foreign policy, or economic health or financial stability of the United States and that have the purpose of or involve causing a misappropriation of funds or economic resources, intellectual property, proprietary or business confidential information, personal identifiers, or financial information for commercial or competitive advantage or private financial gain.

GRINEX WAS CREATED TO AVOID SANCTIONS PLACED ON GARANTEX

OFAC is designating Grinex, another cryptocurrency exchange created by Garantex employees to support the company’s sanctions evasion efforts.  Immediately following the March 6, 2025 law enforcement actions led by the U.S. Secret Service, Garantex officers created the infrastructure to continue to provide key services to Garantex, specifically transferring Garantex customer deposits to Grinex.  Grinex’s promotional materials state that the exchange was formed in response to sanctions and asset freezes that affected Garantex.  Since its creation, Grinex has facilitated the transfer of billions of dollars in cryptocurrency transactions.  OFAC is designating Grinex pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for being owned or controlled by, or having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, Garantex, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.

Garantex carried out this scheme to move its funds to Grinex and allow its customers who lost their funds following the law enforcement disruptions to regain access to their accounts using the A7A5 token, a ruble-backed digital asset.  The A7A5 token is issued by Kyrgyzstani firm Old Vector.  Old Vector worked with Garantex and others in the creation of the A7A5 token.  Garantex users who lost revenue were provided the equivalent of their losses in the A7A5 token.  The token was created for Russian customers of A7 Limited Liability Company (A7), a Russian firm that provides cross-border settlement platforms used for sanctions evasion.  A7 and its subsidiaries A71 Limited Liability Company (A71) and A7 Agent Limited Liability Company (A7 Agent) are owned by sanctioned Moldovan oligarch Ilan Mironovich Shor (Shor) and sanctioned Russian bank Promsvyazbank Public Joint Stock Company (PSB).  Prior to the March 6, 2025 law enforcement actions, representatives for Shor met with Garantex officers to establish A7A5 trading on Garantex.

OFAC is designating A7 pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods and services to or in support of, Garantex, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.  OFAC is also designating A71 and A7 Agent pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for being owned or controlled by, or having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, A7, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.  Further, OFAC is designating Old Vector pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods and services to or in support of, A7, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.

KEY GARANTEX PERSONNEL AND PARTNER ENTITIES 

Garantex’s senior executives have supported its ability to enable cybercrime and sanctions evasion by procuring computer infrastructure for Garantex, registering its trademarks, and engaging in business development efforts to make its activities appear legitimate.  Garantex’s network of partner companies has also enabled it to move money, including illicit funds, outside of Russia.

Sergey Mendeleev (Mendeleev)is a co-founder of Garantex, Aleksandr Mira Serda (Mira Serda) is a co-owner and the chief commercial officer of Garantex, and Pavel Karavatsky (Karavatsky)is a co-owner and regional director of Garantex.  

Independent Decentralized Finance Smartbank and Ecosystem (InDeFi Bank) and Exved were co-founded and are controlled by Mendeleev.  InDeFi Bank provides decentralized financial services outside of traditional finance applications, including helping users to purchase virtual currencies from Garantex.  Exved is a payment platform that works closely with InDeFi Bank to facilitate cryptocurrency-mediated trade between Russia and other countries to subvert U.S. sanctions on Russia’s financial services sector.

OFAC is designating Mendeleev, Mira Serda, and Karavatsky pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for being owned or controlled by, or having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, Garantex, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended.  OFAC is designating InDeFi Bank and Exved pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended, for being owned or controlled by, or having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, Mendeleev, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13694, as further amended. 

SANCTIONS IMPLICATIONS

As a result of today’s action, all property and interests in property of the blocked persons described above that are in the United States or in the possession or control of U.S. persons are blocked and must be reported to OFAC.  In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked.  Unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC, or exempt, OFAC’s regulations generally prohibit all transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the United States that involve any property or interests in property of designated or otherwise blocked persons. 

In addition, financial institutions and other persons that engage in certain transactions or activities with the sanctioned entities and individuals may expose themselves to sanctions or be subject to an enforcement action.  The prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any designated person, or the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person. 

Violations of OFAC regulations may result in civil or criminal penalties. OFAC’s Economic Sanctions Enforcement Guidelines provide more information regarding OFAC’s enforcement of U.S. sanctions, including the factors that OFAC generally considers when determining an appropriate response to an apparent violation.

The power and integrity of OFAC sanctions derive not only from OFAC’s ability to designate and add persons to the SDN List, but also from its willingness to remove persons from the SDN List consistent with the law.  The ultimate goal of sanctions is not to punish, but to bring about a positive change in behavior.  For information concerning the process for seeking removal from an OFAC list, including the SDN List, please refer to OFAC’s Frequently Asked Question 897 here.  For detailed information on the process to submit a request for removal from an OFAC sanctions list, please click here.

Washington D.C. / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / August 12, 2025 - Match Group, Inc., and Match Group, LLC (Match), the owners and operators of online dating services Match.com, OkCupid, PlentyOfFish, The League, and other dating sites, have agreed to pay $14 million, permanently stop misrepresenting guarantees and locking consumers out of paid-for accounts, and simplify Match.com’s cancellation processes to resolve the Federal Trade Commission’s charges.

In its September 2019 complaint, the FTC alleged that Match:

• deceptively induced consumers to subscribe to Match.com by promising them a free six-month subscription if they did not “meet someone special”—without adequately disclosing that consumers had to meet several onerous requirements before the company would honor its guarantee;
• unfairly suspended the accounts of users who unsuccessfully filed billing disputes, keeping their money without providing the paid-for services; and
• made it difficult for users to cancel their subscriptions.

In addition to requiring Match to pay $14 million, which the FTC will use to provide redress to injured consumers, the proposed order also requires Match to:

• clearly and conspicuously disclose the terms of its “six-month guarantee,” as well as any other material restrictions, limitations, or conditions relating to guarantees;
• not misrepresent any material restrictions, limitations, or conditions relating to guarantees;
• refrain from retaliating, threatening to take adverse action, or taking any adverse action against consumers for filing billing disputes and denying consumers who file billing disputes access to paid-for goods or services; and
• provide simple mechanisms for consumers to cancel their subscriptions.

The Commission vote approving the stipulated final order was 3-0. The FTC filed the proposed order in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. Stipulated final orders have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court Judge.

The lead staff attorney on this matter was Reid Tepfer together with attorneys Jason Moon, Hasan Aijaz, Erica Hilliard, Nicole Conte and Tammy Chung of the FTC’s Southwest Region.

The Federal Trade Commission works to promote competition and protect and educate consumers. The FTC will never demand money, make threats, tell you to transfer money, or promise you a prize.

By the numbers: Under the latest Air Traffic Controller Workforce Plan, the FAA anticipates hiring at least 8,900 new air traffic controllers through 2028, including 2,000 in 2025. The Aviation Safety Workforce Plan calls for hiring about 4,600 safety inspectors and engineers through 2034.   

“Under President Trump’s leadership, the USDOT isn’t just solving today’s problems. By looking ahead and planning for the future of transportation, we can ensure America remains the global aerospace leader,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. “Putting the best and brightest in our towers and in the field will allow us to make flying safer, reduce delays and cancellations, and bring about a Golden Age of travel.”   

“The aviation ecosystem is rapidly evolving and the FAA must adapt to unprecedented changes,” said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. “Our success depends on highly skilled and dedicated air traffic control and aviation safety inspector workforces and growing both is a top priority for the FAA.” 

Air Traffic Controller Hiring 

Groundbreaking initiatives: Under the leadership of Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy and Deputy Administrator Chris Rocheleau, the FAA has taken unprecedented action to speed up air traffic controller hiring and training. During a supercharged hiring initiative in March, the FAA streamlined the process while qualifying and referring more than 8,320 candidates to the controller aptitude exam. While it previously took more than 13 months from application to admission into the FAA Academy, the best and brightest are already entering.  

In May, Secretary Duffy unveiled a new package of actions to further supercharge the air traffic controller workforce, including financial incentives, rewarding Academy graduates who are assigned to hard-to-staff facilities and expediting routine medical and security clearances. 

The FAA also is:   

• Initiating a year-round hiring track for experienced controllers from the military and private industry.
• Filling every seat at the FAA Academy and increasing classroom capacity. 
• Expanding the Enhanced Air Traffic – Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI), which allows students who complete the coursework to bypass the Academy and report directly to an FAA facility to begin their training.    
• Deploying upgraded Tower Simulation Systems at 95 facilities, which can reduce training times by up to 27 percent. 

Aviation Safety Inspector/Engineer Hiring 

What they do: Employees in the FAA’s Aviation Safety (AVS) division perform critical functions, including monitoring and enforcing compliance with regulations, investigating accidents and incidents, certifying aircraft, personnel, equipment and avionics and administering the FAA’s medical programs.     

Challenges: AVS must keep up with rapid technological advancements such as advanced materials for aircraft structures, systems, alternate fuels, airports, and airspace; innovative electric and hybrid systems; and the impact of artificial intelligence and machine learning.    

A robust hiring strategy: Initiatives to recruit skilled and experienced inspectors, engineers, and medical officers include:   

• On-the-spot hiring authority to expedite hiring safety inspectors, engineers and medical officers. 
• Relocation incentives for hard-to-staff areas. 
• Premium pay incentive for medical officers. 
• Recruitment incentives for hard-to-fill positions.

For more information about the proposed rule, see our fact sheet.

"We are making the future of our aviation a reality and unleashing American drone dominance. From drones delivering medicine to unmanned aircraft surveying crops, this technology will fundamentally change the way we interact with the world," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. "Our new rule will reform outdated regulations that were holding innovators back while also enhancing safety in our skies. Thanks to President Trump, America – not China – will lead the way in this exciting new technology."

Previously, operators would have to get individual waivers or exemptions to use their drones without visual line of sight. These were approved on a case-by-case basis, and the process was cumbersome. By eliminating these requirements for BVLOS operations, the proposal will significantly expand the use-case for drone technologies in areas like: manufacturing, farming, energy production, filmmaking, and the movement of products including lifesaving medications.  

"Normalizing BVLOS flights is key to realizing drones’ societal and economic benefits," said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. "Package delivery, agriculture, aerial surveying, public safety, recreation, and flight testing are just some of the uses we expect to see as we enable these innovative technologies while maintaining the safety of our National Airspace System."

"Today’s NPRM is a bold, forward-looking step that helps unlock the full potential of BVLOS drone operations, transforming how we monitor infrastructure, deliver critical supplies, advance precision agriculture, and speed up emergency response. Under President Trump’s leadership, we are giving innovators a predictable, scalable pathway to conduct BVLOS missions, to ensure that the United States remains the global leader in drone technology. We look forward to public comment on this critical rulemaking," said Michael Kratsios, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

The proposal also includes updated requirements for manufacturers, operators, and drone traffic-management services to keep BVLOS drones safely separated from each other and from manned aircraft. 

Additional Information:

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is a partner in developing this rule.

The FAA encourages people to submit comments in the Federal Register. The comment period will be open for 60 days following publication and will not be extended.

The Control Tower Operator Partnership (CTO-P) will integrate graduates of FAA-approved institutions into the FCT system, where they’ll train to become certified controllers. FCTs are run by private companies while adhering to FAA safety standards. 

Students at an approved CTO-P institution will train using the same FAA-approved curriculum as the FAA’s air traffic controller Academy in Oklahoma City. Graduates will start on-the-job training at one of the 265 FCTs, which manage air traffic in small towns and around municipal airports. The program also builds a future pipeline for the FAA workforce. Certified professional controllers with 52 weeks of FCT experience are eligible for direct hire into the FAA.  

“We’re committed to boosting both the FAA and FCT controller workforces,” said FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford. “We look forward to partnering with organizations that will use the FAA’s rigorous standards to train the next generation.”  

A separate FAA program - the Enhanced Air Traffic-Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) - feeds graduates to FAA facilities. CTO-P is one of the many ways Secretary Duffy and the FAA have made supercharging the air traffic controller workforce a top priority to address the shortage of controllers. The FAA is on track to hire at least 2,000 controllers this year following the March supercharged hiring campaign, which increased the starting salary for Academy trainees by 30 percent and streamlined hiring.  

CTO-P institutions must meet specific requirements to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the FAA and become a Partner Institution.  

More information on the CTO-P is on the FAA’s webpage.

WASHINGTON, D.C. / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / July 19, 2025 – U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy today announced a slate of America First actions to combat Mexico’s blatant disregard of the 2015 U.S.-Mexico Air Transport Agreement and its ongoing anti-competitive behavior.

Mexico has not been in compliance with the bilateral agreement since 2022 when it abruptly rescinded slots and then forced U.S. all-cargo carriers to relocate operations. Mexico claimed it was to allow for construction to alleviate congestion at Benito Juarez International Airport (MEX) that has yet to materialize three years later. By restricting slots and mandating that all-cargo operations move out of MEX, Mexico has broken its promise, disrupted the market, and left American businesses holding the bag for millions in increased costs.

“Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg deliberately allowed Mexico to break our bilateral aviation agreement,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. “That ends today. Let these actions serve as a warning to any country who thinks it can take advantage of the U.S., our carriers, and our market. America First means fighting for the fundamental principle of fairness.”

President Trump and Secretary Duffy are taking note of multiple other countries that are disregarding the terms of our air transport agreements. For example, we are monitoring European States to ensure that they apply the Balanced Approach process for noise abatement at their airports and do not implement unjustified operational restrictions.  The Department is committed to enforcing our agreements to ensure that aviation markets are fair and pro-competitive.

The three America First actions include:  

1. Part 213 Order requiring Mexican airlines to file schedules with the Department for all their U.S. operations.
2. Part 212 Order requiring prior DOT approval before operating any large passenger or cargo aircraft charter flights to or from the United States. 
3. Supplemental Show Cause Order proposing the withdrawal of the Delta/Aeromexico joint venture’s antitrust immunity (ATI), thereby taking corrective action to address competitive issues in the market.

Additional Information:

On Slots

In 2022, Mexico seized historic slots from three U.S. carriers (American, Delta, United) and three Mexican carriers (Aeromexico, Viva Aerobus, Volaris) operating scheduled passenger services at MEX. This was done under the pretense of capacity constraints and operational limitations at MEX.

Despite repeated outreach from the Department, Mexico has not provided any information regarding when these slots would be returned or if any major construction projects at MEX will ever materialize.

On Air Cargo 

In 2023, Mexico unilaterally forced all U.S. all-cargo carriers out of MEX under the same saturation pretenses with only 108 business days advance notice. Mexico has not taken any action to restore the operating rights of U.S. all-cargo carriers guaranteed in the U.S.-Mexico Air Transport Agreement.

On ATI

Antitrust immunity is an extraordinary authority that enables common pricing and revenue sharing.

As noted in the Show Cause Order: 

“Since 2022, Mexico has altered the playing field significantly for airlines in ways that reduce competition and allow predominant competitors to gain an unfair advantage in the U.S.-Mexico market.  The United States and Mexico have an air services agreement...that commits both parties to a liberalized operating environment for all airlines...Mexico has walked away from its commitments…Mexico arbitrarily reduced capacity at the country’s primary gateway airport in Mexico City, Benito Juarez International Airport (MEX), confiscated slots from U.S. carriers at MEX, and ordered all-cargo carriers to vacate MEX.  In addition, Mexico lacks a transparent and non-discriminatory slot allocation regime that adheres to international standards and applies consistently across the country’s airports, including MEX.  The lack of a coherent slot allocation regime and the prospect of arbitrary action looming at any time raises serious concerns about the long-term competitiveness of the U.S.-Mexico market and the ability of the Department to depend upon the air services agreement as a mechanism to ensure adequate competition.  Mexico’s actions harm airlines seeking to enter the market, existing competitor airlines, consumers of air travel and products relying on time-sensitive air cargo shipments traded between the two countries, and other stakeholders in the American economy.”

The Department reserves the right to disapprove flight requests from Mexico should the country fail to take corrective action.

Should the Department finalize the ATI determinations, Delta/Aeromexico would be required to discontinue cooperation such as common pricing, capacity management, and revenue sharing that require antitrust immunity.  However, Delta and Aeromexico would be able to continue their partnership through arms-length activities such as codesharing, marketing, and frequent flyer cooperation. Delta will also be able to retain its equity stake in Aeromexico and maintain all of its existing flying in the U.S-Mexico market unimpeded.

Washington D.C. / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / July 18, 2025 - The Federal Trade Commission is seeking public comment on a request from Scott Zuckerman, the CEO of a company that marketed “stalkerware” apps, to vacate or modify the FTC’s order banning monitoring products and services and requiring implementation of an information-security program.

In its 2021 complaint, the FTC alleged that Support King, LLC, which did business as SpyFone.com, and Zuckerman sold apps that allowed purchasers to secretly monitor devices without device-owner knowledge. The apps secretly collected and shared data on photos, text messages, web histories, location, and physical movements. SpyFone facilitated this by instructing purchasers on how to bypass security settings on the device where the apps were installed.

Under an order settling the FTC’s allegations, Support King and Zuckerman are banned from offering, promoting, selling, or advertising any surveillance app, service, or business. The order also requires the company and Zuckerman’s other businesses to develop an information-security program and obtain biennial assessments by a third party to ensure they are complying with the order’s requirements and other reporting obligations.

In his petition, Zuckerman said Support King is permanently closed and claimed that the FTC’s order imposed an “excessive and unnecessary burden” on him personally. He said the financial costs of complying with the order prevented him from expanding his other businesses, which remain subject to the order’s requirements. In his petition, Zuckerman asked the Commission to either:

• Vacate the order entirely, or
• Modify the order to eliminate all reporting, audit, and compliance requirements that affect his current businesses, which include a restaurant and “tourism ventures.”

The public will have 30 days, until August 19, 2025, to submit comments on the petition. Instructions for filing comments appear on the docket. Once processed, they will be posted on Regulations.gov. After the comment period closes, the Commission will vote to determine how to resolve the petition.

The Federal Trade Commission works to promote competition and protect and educate consumers. The FTC will never demand money, make threats, tell you to transfer money, or promise you a prize. Learn more about consumer topics at consumer.ftc.gov, or report fraud, scams, and bad business practices at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. Follow the FTC on social media, read consumer alerts and the business blog, and sign up to get the latest FTC news and alerts.

WASHINGTON / CRWE PRESS RELEASE / June 30, 2025 — Today, the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is taking action to implement President Trump’s historic Executive Order (E.O.) of June 30, 2025, “Providing for the Revocation of Syria Sanctions,” removing U.S. sanctions on Syria in support of the Syrian people and their new government as they rebuild their country and have the opportunity to become a stable and prosperous nation at peace with itself and its neighbors.  Today’s E.O. revokes the Executive orders that previously placed comprehensive sanctions on Syria.  The E.O. also ensures continued accountability for the Bashar al-Assad regime, expanding the national emergency declared in E.O. 13894 to allow for the continuation of sanctions against Bashar al-Assad, his associates, and other destabilizing regional actors. 

Concurrent with the E.O.’s issuance, OFAC removed 518 individuals and entities from the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) sanctioned under the Syria sanctions program, lifting sanctions on individuals and entities critical to Syria’s development, the operation of its government, and the rebuilding of the country’s social fabric.  OFAC also designated 139 individuals and entities affiliated with the previous regime under E.O. 13894, as further amended, as well as other Iran and Counter Terrorism authorities, ensuring continued accountability for the former al-Assad regime and its abuses. 

The circumstances that gave rise to OFAC’s Syria sanctions program, related to the brutal former regime of Bashar al-Assad, have been transformed by developments over the past six months, including the positive actions taken by the new Syrian government under President Ahmed al-Sharaa.  Today’s E.O. and actions by the Department of State, the Department of the Treasury, and Department of Commerce advance the U.S. government effort to remove the full architecture of sanctions imposed on Syria.

“In line with President Trump’s promise to deliver sanctions relief for Syria, today’s actions will help provide the country the opportunity to reestablish ties to global commerce and build international confidence,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.  “As we continue to monitor progress on the ground, we remain focused on preventing Assad, his cronies, terrorists, and other illicit actors from attempting to destabilize Syria and the region.”     

Sanctions will remain on Bashar al-Assad and his associates, human rights abusers, captagon traffickers, persons linked to Syria’s past proliferation activities, ISIS and Al-Qa’ida affiliates, and Iran and its proxies.  For additional information, please see OFAC’s Promoting Accountability for Assad and Regional Stabilization Sanctions Page.

TERMINATION OF THE SYRIA SANCTIONS PROGRAM

To support the people of Syria and their new government as they rebuild their country after many years of destruction caused by the former regime of Bashar al-Assad, OFAC is implementing the President’s termination of the Syria sanctions program.  As a result, OFAC is removing individuals and entities blocked solely under the Syria sanctions program from the SDN List. Accordingly, all property and interests in property of such individuals and entities will be unblocked.  In addition, OFAC will remove the Syrian Sanctions Regulations from the Code of Federal Regulations.

Pending or future OFAC investigations or enforcement actions related to apparent violations of the Syrian Sanctions Regulations that occurred prior to July 1, 2025, may still be carried out.

SANCTIONS IMPLICATIONS

As a result of today’s action, all property and interests in property of the designated or blocked persons described above that are in the United States or in the possession or control of U.S. persons are blocked and must be reported to OFAC.  In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked.  Unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC, or exempt, OFAC’s regulations generally prohibit all transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the United States that involve any property or interests in property of blocked persons.

Violations of U.S. sanctions may result in the imposition of civil or criminal penalties on U.S. and foreign persons.  OFAC may impose civil penalties for sanctions violations on a strict liability basis.  OFAC’s Economic Sanctions Enforcement Guidelines provide more information regarding OFAC’s enforcement of U.S. economic sanctions.  In addition, financial institutions and other persons may risk exposure to sanctions for engaging in certain transactions or activities with designated or otherwise blocked persons.  The prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any designated or blocked person, or the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person.

The power and integrity of OFAC sanctions derive not only from OFAC’s ability to designate and add persons to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List), but also from its willingness to remove persons from the SDN List consistent with the law.  The ultimate goal of sanctions is not to punish, but to bring about a positive change in behavior.  For information concerning the process for seeking removal from an OFAC list, including the SDN List, or to submit a request, please refer to OFAC’s guidance on Filing a Petition for Removal from an OFAC List.

The agenda for the workshop, which will be released prior to the event, will include doctors, medical ethicists, whistleblowers, detransitioners, and parents of detransitioners. These participants will share perspectives grounded in research, expertise, and personal experience.

The workshop is being convened following President Trump’s executive order ending the federal government’s previous support for “gender-affirming care” for minors. The order asserted that “medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions.”

Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act gives the FTC broad authority to protect consumers from unfair or deceptive acts or practices. This authority could be implicated if there is evidence that medical professionals or others omitted warnings about the risks or made false or unsupported claims about the benefits and effectiveness of gender-affirming care for minors.

The workshop will help the FTC to understand whether consumers are being or have been exposed to false or unsupported claims about “gender-affirming care” and to gauge the harms consumers may be experiencing.

For the safety of participants, in-person attendance at the event will be invitation only. Members of the public or press who wish to attend may email healthcareworkshop@ftc.gov to indicate interest.

The Federal Trade Commission works to promote competition and protect and educate consumers. The FTC will never demand money, make threats, tell you to transfer money, or promise you a prize. Learn more about consumer topics at consumer.ftc.gov, or report fraud, scams, and bad business practices at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Greta Gaines has never been content to pursue any single or solitary endeavor. An acclaimed singer, songwriter, activist, extreme sports competitor, mother, and mentor, she’s always been driven by determination, craft and creativity. With eight critically acclaimed albums to her credit, she’s taken on the role of a trail-blazer courtesy of her various and varied activities and initiatives. In so doing, she’s consistently challenged herself, drawing inspiration from her own emotions and personal perspective, while also giving her fans and followers opportunity to reflect on their own ideas, instincts and imagination.

Greta’s new album, Bird Before Light, is no exception. “It’s about getting out of my comfort zone as a songwriter, one who typically writes alone and in solitude,” she explains. “It explores certain themes that I find myself wrestling with in midlife — empty nesting, newfound anxiety, resistance to change, grief, and betrayal — while also pursuing faith, finding the simple joy that comes with sharing time with old friends, and immersing myself in the beauty of nature and the natural world.”

Nevertheless, Greta refuses to rest on her laurels. “This album, Bird Before Light, gave the gift of self-discovery. It’s guided me on letting go while embracing what’s to come.”

The single ‘Coming to Fruition’ will be available on her website GretaGaines.com and streaming sites everywhere.

Lisa stated, “I am looking forward to leading the Herbal Works marketing team. We plan on first launching a campaign to build a community of fans of our brand. It is then important to share our creative message that sticks. I am passionate about connecting people to the Herbal Works brand with an authentic and creative message that makes a difference for the Herbal Works customers.”

Robert Kane, CEO stated “Lisa is coming in to help us grow visibility, drive traffic, and ultimately increase conversions. I believe in what she can do for Herbal Works, and I'm excited to help her bring the company’s vision to more people.”

Wayne Howey, President of Herbal Works added, “Lisa brings a dynamic, roll-upmy-sleeves energy and a deep understanding of what it takes to stand out in a crowded wellness market. I believe she will help elevate the brand through compelling storytelling, smart advertising strategies, and marketing initiatives that not only capture attention but also build trust and loyalty.”

Eco Allies, Inc. (EA) plans to establish two biochar production facilities. One in Florida and one in California and a SuperGreenTree® (SGT) plantation in Northwest Florida. EA will manufacture, distribute, and market Eco Allies branded Biochar Now (BN) biochar and SGT Paulownia Elongata products. EA is the majority partner in the EA/BN venture. (75%-25%) EA branded biochar and SGT products will be manufactured for regional, national, and international markets. Biochar and SGT materials are components for many dozens of products and uses, including livestock feed additives, soil remediation, wastewater treatment, water filters, timber, and medicines, to name a few. Graphene from biochar for E/V batteries has gained a foothold recently and is one of dozens of products using biochar. The worldwide market for biochar products is large and non-cyclical. Here’s The Biochar Journal’s list of 55 uses for biochar. https://www.biochar-journal.org/en/ct/2.

Biochar Now holds biochar products and production patents and is producing biochar at its Colorado facility. BN/EA biochar is EPA approved for unrestricted use, has USDA approval as a livestock feed additive, and the offset compliance carbon credits are insured. Included in the arrangement is Biochar Now’s award-winning know-how.

Eco Allies operations will commence first at the Florida facility with 120 biochar kilns which are metal canisters with a patented controller whose settings control temperature. Production is not a hi-tech activity. The employees do not need to have specialized skills to operate the facility. Biochar is a high margin product. At the end of year 2 the JV’s annual revenue generated from two 120 kiln operations is projected to be about $24 mil (at $1/lb.). After tax income would be over $12 mil annually.

Production will commence in Florida three months after breaking ground. The JV’s first biochar facility is expected to be fully operational nine months after breaking ground. EA’s kilns will be delivered monthly with plans to cash flow the operation to reach 240 kilns.

The project encompasses growing EA’s SGTs as biochar raw material on the Florida acreage to be owned by EA. EA will also own all equipment. SGTs make the world’s premier biochar. One acre can produce 300 fully grown SGTs every 8 years.

SGT’s grow to about 60 feet in three years and at that point they can be harvested. Over their productive life SGTs will fully regrow five to six more times from the initial stump and root structure. SGTs have been successfully grown and harvested domestically for many years. The SGT was developed using its proprietary root grafting system, not genetic engineering. SGTs are a high-density, short rotation tree. SGTs produce Eco Allies branded livestock feed, biochar, timber, textiles, renewable energy biomass, and for carbon sequestration and land remediation. All while generating methane and carbon offset credits. A 12’ beam from an 8-year-old SGT can sell for as much as $3k added to the SGT product value of the other 48’.

When I learned that Greta Gaines is involved now, that sealed the deal. I see many opportunities to positively impact Herbal Works Inc. through leverage.”

Herbal Works Inc. has assembled a team of over half a dozen industry consultants to guide its upcoming product launch. The company’s first collection—featuring skincare, supplements, and animal wellness products—is expected to launch in June 2025 via the Herbal Works ( herbal-works.com ) online store.

Greta Gaines, a key collaborator on the new product lines, shared, “I am proud to be working with Jason on the Herbal Works skincare, supplements, and animal products. Due to our resources, we hope to deliver higher quality products at better prices than anything else on the market.”
