During our debates, @ewarren⁩ lied about things I’ve openly written about in my Memoir, Food Stamp Warrior. Here’s a look at how career politicians and their lies impact the perception of public service on young people.

@stacyherbert @realannapaulina @nayibbukele 🙏

“I was told that there are currently over $100B/year of entitlements payments to individuals with no SSN or even a temporary ID number.” Regardless of whether you approve or disapprove of the way @DOGE is operating, if this is true, then taxpayers are victims of massive incompetence or massive fraud. Period. Also, millions of dollars to @politico, the @nytimes or any other newspaper is George Orwell’s 1984 becoming reality - the government using the press to brainwash the masses. How many times have we’ve seen videos of newsrooms across America utilizing the exact same words to spread the exact same narrative?

@BlackberryXRP @SECGov I’m not suggesting this account is Jed’s. But I don’t believe in making a post about or implicating someone without tagging them, for notice.

This ruling is insane, dangerous and no elected official should celebrate or even reference it. @elonmusk and people helping Elon is one thing but this judge trying to bar the Treasury Secretary from having access to the network he’s now in charge of is idiotic and more of a political stunt. Judge Engelmayer should be ashamed of himself. The reason I call it dangerous is because we need a healthy respectable third branch of government. With rulings like this one, it could lead to a situation where our courts start getting ignored and someone saying “ok, now try enforcing it.” Elections have consequences. Trump won. Pursuant to our constitution, Scott Bessent has been confirmed as U.S. Treasury Secretary. He has a job to do. The Democrats cried about Trump not recognizing the 2020 result. Well, it’s time they recognize the 2024 result. Elections have consequences.

Dave, next time you’re doing a pizza review in MA let me know and I’ll stop by and have one bite, because everyone knows the rules, and we’ll shit talk about shit coins. Since I sued the SEC over XRP and won, we can talk about that and what liability, if any, a public figure (aka target), like you, may be subject to.

Maybe you should also do something about things at home, like a Governor and legislature fighting an audit that was overwhelmingly approved by voters, your constituents, or maybe, do something about BlueHub preying on underrepresented homeowners, while the Governor signs a bill immunizing her friend from liability. Or maybe you’re just interested in making headlines against the new administration for your own political benefit. Going against the new administration isn��t courageous. In fact, in MA, it’s the easy thing to do. But speaking out, at home, against those within your own party, that’s real leadership.

RT @JohnEDeaton1: SOMEONE BOOK BILL AND ME ON A SHOW TOGETHER Facts: Hinman, connected to ETH in significant ways, including making mill…

RT @MassFiscal: When are you suing the Speaker & Senate President for not complying with the voter approved law to audit the legislature?

😂

It’s simple: If the government is NOT allowed to do it, the government is NOT allowed to fund it. Period.

If the government didn’t have its 🥾 on the neck of an entire industry people wouldn’t have been forced to an offshore exchange where they were robbed by the Bernie Madoff of Crypto. These politicians talk about FTX but they never talk about how cozy they all were with SBF and his money.

SOMEONE BOOK BILL AND ME ON A SHOW TOGETHER Facts: Hinman, connected to ETH in significant ways, including making millions as an ongoing profit sharing partner with people representing ETH and ETH companies, on June 14, 2018, gave a speech, declaring BTC & ETH non-securities. In Hinman’s words, he said his speech wasn’t significant related to BTC because BTC was already accepted NOT to be a security. Regarding ETH, however, he acknowledged his speech was a BIG deal. As we know, the SEC never makes public comment on specific tokens or projects. After ETH’s free pass, how many times did we hear Calyton, Hinman, @HesterPeirce, Gensler, and EVERYONE at the SEC, say “it would be inappropriate to discuss a specific token or project.” Yet, it was appropriate for Hinman to comment this one time? 🧐 When I call it Hinman’s Ether Speech it’s because Hinman himself labeled it the “Ether Speech.” We know this because we have the emails between Hinman and others at the SEC leading up to the speech. When you look at the people who received a copy of the draft, many SEC divisions were involved, except Ethics. Prior to the speech, Hinman was told several times he was violating the financial conflict laws because he kept meeting with his partners, especially considering his partners had business before the SEC.👇 What kind of business, you ask? How about his partner from China filing for Canaan’s IPO? What’s Canaan? At the time, only the world’s largest manufacturer of ETH mining equipment.🤨 That’s right, Hinman’s partners - the same partners he was told to stop meeting - were pushing for an ETH mining equipment company IPO during the same time Hinman planned on giving ETH a free pass. The initial Form F-1 registration statement for Canaan’s IPO was filed with the SEC on May 15, 2018. Hinman’s speech was June 14, 2018. How do we know Hinman ignored SEC Ethics personnel regarding this IPO Hinman met with his China partner the same day a letter from Hinman’s Division went out to that same partner.👇 While some people tied to ETH called me and @digitalassetbuy @DigPerspectives and others conspiracy theorists, @EMPOWR_us, an independent Watchdog regarding ethics, with no tie to crypto, sued the SEC and obtained the emails. EMPOWR also made a referral to the IG overseeing the SEC. A final report over Hinman’s conflicts has been issued but not made public. EMPOWR sued the SEC again, demanding the report. Do you remember the 2 year litigation battle between @bgarlinghouse @s_alderoty 🆚 Jorge Tenreiro and other SEC lawyers? Remember the battle over whether Hinman could be deposed, which he was? The lawyers at the SEC fought harder to stop that deposition than lawyers fight to stop a deposition of the President. Lawyers for @a16zcrypto helped ✍️ the speech. That is an incontestable fact. We have videos of the lawyer who helped ✍️ it publicly stating: “Hinman pretty much followed the memo I sent him.” And wher does Hinman work today: @a16zcrypto. The revolving 🚪of regulatory capture on full display. Hinman met multiple times with ETH co-founders, including @VitalikButerin. Take a look at the DRAFT speech BEFORE meeting with Vitalk, 8 days before the speech, compared to the FINAL version and you’ll notice a big difference. The draft before meeting Vitalik discussed decentralization of miners. After meeting with Vitalik, the final version does not. 🤔 Even lawyers present during meetings with Hinman admit ETH was not decentralized, despite Hinman declaring ETH “sufficiently decentralized” and thus, not a security.👇 After he gave the speech, Hinman would speak at conferences like the one below. Back then, he would say only ETH & BTC had clarity (after he gave the clarity). And now he’s back, recycling the same bullshit and ignoring the Ruling that XRP is not a security from a case that he pushed to bring. We should be on a panel together.

C’mon @elonmusk, you forgot to tag @ewarren.

I’m in the middle of a 2 week trial. Already don’t know how I’ve tried cases without it! And yes, it is way better than having an associate. In fact, my associate uses ChatGPT to do what I ask him to do. And I don’t pay a good salary, bonuses, and 100% medical insurance benefits to Chat!

There’s no other way to describe this other than putting Tenreiro in his place and saying, if you don’t like it, leave. And make no mistake, Tenreiro EARNED this demotion and humiliation. I’m not saying this because he prosecuted crypto companies or because he hates crypto. I’m saying it because I have knowledge that he litigates cases the way SEC lawyers litigated Debt Box. In the @Ripple case, the judge, without personally naming him, said Tenreiro lacked faithful allegiance to the law and would say anything, no matter how untrue, just to win an argument or advance his litigation goals. How do I know Judge Netburn meant Tenreiro? Because she said it about the lawyers handling the Ripple case on behalf of the @SECGov. Tenreiro was the LEAD ATTORNEY, calling the shots. Lawyers like Tenreiro have a win at all costs attitude, with no commitment to fairness, truth, or justice. He relishes being able to threaten using the resources of the U.S. Government to intimidate or bully entrepreneurs and litigants. I’m a former federal prosecutor. You’re supposed to wear the White Hat and seek out justice, not feed your self-serving Prima Donna attitude.
