Today’s SEC decision to delay two #Bitcoin ETF applications is “likely a move to line every applicant up for potential approval by Jan 10, 2024” – Bloomberg ETF analyst.
A new mystery whale continues its daily ritual of purchasing hundreds of #Bitcoin every morning, adding another 500 #BTC to their stack today alone. At this pace, they’ll likely own one of the top 100 largest #Bitcoin addresses by the week’s end.
This is why our media is failing us. @Victorshi2020
Wow. A new study finds CNN, Fox, & MSNBC covered Hillary Clinton’s “deplorable” comment NINE times more than Trump using the word “vermin” for his enemies & the big 3 networks spent 18 times longer on Hillary’s comment than Trump’s. This is why our media is failing us. Horrible.
Robert Reich
The Republicans behind the House “fiscal commission” are the same ones pushing to extend the Trump tax cuts — which would add $3.5 trillion to the deficit. None of this is about honestly addressing the debt.
It’s a ploy to quietly gutting Social Security and Medicare
VOTE FOR Katie Porter @katieporteroc
Our nearly 15-year-old, $7.25 an hour minimum wage is a direct reflection of how Washington caters to big corporations ahead of everyday people. I’m running for Senate to reset the rules on behalf of workers and their families.
This guy is a charlatan’: University of Florida turns against demon sperm “Surgeon General” Joe Ladapo. Took them long enough, ffs. Colleagues say the state surgeon general rarely is on campus and has “sullied” the reputation of the flagship school.

“Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?”
A British writer penned the best description of Donald Trump I’ve ever read:
“Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?”
A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief.
Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.
Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.
There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.
And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless – and he kicks them when they are down.
So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think ‘Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:
• Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.
• You don’t need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man.
This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum. God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump.
And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: ‘My God… what… have… I… created?’ If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set.”
