“I’ve made a terrible mistake,” Gerald Shvartsman told the judge as he pleaded guilty. He added that it was “wrong and the mistake I will pay for dearly the rest of my life.”The indictment against them did not in any way implicate Trump - who is again seeking the presidency this year - or Trump Media & Technology Group, which owns his Truth Social platform and began trading on the Nasdaq stock market on March 26. Trump has a 60% stake in the company.

At the time, Michael Shvartsman owned Rocket One Capital LLC, a venture capital firm, according to court papers.
