In December, Popular Information reported that Chinese crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun purchased $30 million in crypto tokens from World Liberty Financial (WLF), a new venture backed by President Donald Trump and his family.
You gotta pay to play in Trumpland. Never mind that it violates US law. Wonder how FOX-World is going to sanewash that one. Even the MAGA faithful might find a $75 million crypto payoff to "their guy" a bit of a stretch when they have to choose between food and rent.
Tomorrow, Feb. 28th, please avoid buying ANYTHING online, or in any big box stores. Park your plastic, for one day only. Buy local, with cash. Hitting them in the pocketbook is the only thing Wall Street understands.
Fox and the rest of the MSM won't sane wash this. They simply won't report it. Yes, tomorrow we only buy local, only cash. Let's show the oligarchs that not all Americans are stupid.
Just the ruling class who buy special deference. Everything seems for sale, and those sufficiently wealthy can buy the kind of "justice" that they want. It appears that fast-track citizenship now starts at $5 million.
Just apply the rubric that always proves accurate with "conservatives." In this case, what has he accused other countries of being? "Sh__hole countries." That's where he will take us if we allow him to do so. His mental illness(es) will allow nothing else.
trump is going to take down the entire US banking system with his unfettered crypto schemes $Trump, $Melania - who even believes he's put his "businesses" out of reach while he's our felonpresident? Stuffing his pockets unethically, illegally while he's 'in office' is just one more thing he'll be liable for after his term is kaput! If he even lives to see 2028!
You expected something different? The media- illiterate put the DJT family back in the political/criminal business. As Madison observed, “A democratic republic requires a well-informed electorate.”
Oh they're very media literate, but the media they've been consuming is weasel news, AM and "christian" talk radio, and "conservative," web sites. They know a great deal, and every blessed bit of it is lies and misinformation, all carefully tuned to their psychological deficits and dysfunctions and playing them as they were violins by Stradivarius.
We did this to ourselves because, in refusing to put needed boundaries forbidding lies and misinformation around "free speech," we allowed "conservatives" to create their own "1984"-style "Ministry of Truth" which controls their audience ever bit as rigidly as the government controlled "Ministry of Truth" did in Orwell's novel.
Madison didn't say "over-entertained" (albeit with commercial breaks telling you to "Ask your doctor" regarding whether you urgently need a drug that treats conditions you never knew existed).
It seems obvious that every institution has been compromised. If we find that the last bastion of Democracy, the Supreme Court has no intention of applying the law, then it might just be time to take serious action, if you get my drift!!
Are any of the other news organizations covering this? It should be the first story on every hour of every bona fide news outlet. Meaning every one except Fox since that's not a bona fide news outlet... Why can't anyone stop the madness? Aren't there any rules for this? I know FOTUS doesn't believe the law applies to him, but it seems there could at least be charges brought that he would have to spend some of those ill-gotten gains on! Sheesh!
Beyond appalling. There are zero legs left to support our democracy. It feels like we are going to experience a Hobbesian State of Nature in the not to distant future based on the onslaught of destruction coming from this administration. The judiciary, with rare exception, seems to be all in for an uber strong executive branch no matter the cost to the American people.
If you want to know where International Finance is going if these wannabe rip off artists get their way, just look back at the history of regional and local banks prior to the advent of the FDIC. (No currency had stable value, banks together with their deposits vanished overnight, etc.) If those pushing crypto succeed, the US dollar will no longer be the main international currency, which means that there will be no currency in the world that can be depended on to keep it's value.
International financial chaos will ensue, but that's what they want because chaos leaves far more room for making a killing ripping people off, whereas a well organized, stable system of International Finance cuts such opportunities to a minimum.
Since making money and growing rich are the current religion of the billionaire tech bro crowd, with the motto, "the one who dies with the most toys wins," their overarching motivation, and with Trump's mental illness(es) making him massively easy to manipulate, I suspect we are headed for such chaos, unless "Skynet," "Comet Dibiasky," a global climatological tipping point and major weather catastrophe, or the arrival of something like the "Independence Day" aliens gets in the way.
The old fashioned, FDIC insured banks at the state and local level are likely to stay reasonably stable, but for the National and International banks and Equities markets such chaos will reign with no way to verify the claimed value of anything, that the problems from back in 2008 will look like a walk in the park (careful what you wish for, Mr. Dimon) .
Jesus Christ, we don’t even have a shadow of a democracy. Every agency has been corrupted.

They'll blame it on Biden.
What in the sam hell is going on with this country? Is everyone corrupt?
Just MAGA.

USA for sale—proceeds to the oligarchy.
America is now no better than many 3rd rate corrupt countries.
A banana republic with nuclear weapons.
Apt but oxymoronic. That's how whack things are now, thanks to that awful shitbag and the idiots that put him in position to burn it all
My thought exactly

MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT EVER. NOT EVEN FUCKING CLOSE
Blatantly selling the office of the president. The Trump crime family is having a very good year.
Of course they did!

No need to ask when the SEC became bird cage liners...
Disgusting. This country is completely corrupt. So sad.

Of course! We now live in a kleptocracy.
But we got to vote for the kleptocracy of choice.
