Trump sides with crypto firms in trillion-dollar battle with banks over stablecoin yield The dispute centers on whether crypto firms like Coinbase can offer yields on stablecoins, which banks warn will siphon trillions of dollars from the industry.

Follow the money

The Coinbase CEO met with Trump at the WH & hours later Trump attacked banks for opposing stablecoin yields

His family has made hundreds of millions from World Liberty Financial, which issues USD1 β€” a stablecoin that benefits directly!

Corruption in plain sight

I hope you're right. I feel less sanguine after reading the Telegraph pc. OrbΓ‘n has been getting away w/this for 16yrs.

Did you see this post? Snyder suggests this will be trump's ludicrous excuse for meddling w/our midterms. bsky.app/profile/timo...

OrbΓ‘n plans to blame Ukraine for why they can't have elections, and trump plans to blame Iran. Neither appear to stray far from the authoritarian playbook

So one of Trump’s propagandists tried to peddle the story that Iran was about to strike multiple US bases so we had to attack them preemptively, but the only person in media they could get to push out the lie was Scott Jennings. Then CNN pays him to air it on their network.

since the U.S. and Israeli strikes are framed as "targeted operations against terrorist infrastructure," rather than a full-scale invasion, the Kremlin interprets this as a case that does not fall under the collective defense provisions.

Does the makeup on the hand cover a bandage? My guess is IV insertion. The back of the hand has the most nerve endings and is the single most painful insertion point.

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON
TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN
"The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic.

"Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.'

"Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people.

"Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different.

"In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.
