Does the United Nations still exist?
So the UN seems pretty alive. But on the biggest issue on the planet, a war which has entered its eighth month between two countries with a combined population of 200 million—one of which possesses the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons and threatens to use it—the UN has been a bystander.

Russia-Ukraine War: EU Completely Forbids Crypto Payments from Russia

Dapper Labs freezes funds in wallets with Russian ties following EU sanctions, users say NFT company Dapper Labs has issued warnings to users who have “connections” to Russia that funds held in their account-based crypto wallets have been frozen as part of a set of fresh EU sanctions against Russia.

Florida

Government watchdog Florida Center for Government Accountability sues governor’s office @GovRonDeSantis alleging violation of state sunshine law over request for records related to migrant relocation flights to Martha’s Vineyard.

Antisemite Kanye

Bipolar disorder doesn’t restructure your fundamental values this ugly untalented “entertainer” is a bigot. What I do you give a f*ck about is that the media is still incapable of covering racism or antisemitism without making it seem like it’s something somebody made up.

Trump called Elaine Chao “Coco Chow.” Senator Tuberville said reparations are for “people who do crime.” Kanye West threatened Jews with “dead con 3.” This is NOT normal. We can’t become numb to this. We must call out all of their hateful, racist remarks. Kanye was always a total asshole who was universally despised.

@robreiner
Kanye West is a mentally ill anti-semite. Tommy Tuberville is a racist. Herschel Walker is a moronic liar. Donald Trump is a Fascist Criminal. Welcome to today’s Republican Party.

Please stop using mental illness to explain away Kanye West’s anti-Semitic rants. Millions of people are dealing with mental health issues, and they don’t go on anti-Semitic rants.

AOC
There is absolutely no room in this country or world for antisemitism. It is important to see how harmful + dangerous Kanye’s words are – not only to our Jewish brothers, sisters, & siblings, but also to our collective society at large. We must reject this wherever we see it.

DEMOCRACY

Won’t indict a sitting president. Won’t indict in an election year. Won’t indict during a major campaign. When exactly does the DOJ indict? This is what being above the law looks like. If nothing happens to this man. Laws are useless.

93% of Democrats want to see Trump INDICTED, PROSECUTED, AND THROWN IN JAIL, for the rest of his miserable Godforsaken life!

THIS IS BIG:
Admission of guilt on live TV, what more evidence does DOJ, need?
Trump’s remarks yesterday at his rally were a direct admission of guilt, also known a “summation exhibit,” according to former FBI general counsel Andrew Weissmann. Now we have Trump admitting to KNOWINGLY keeping the documents in storage. INDICT him already! TRaitor TRump said that he wanted those boxes of Classified Documents to start his “Presidential Library”.

We keep letting the crazy people win, because we are wary of confronting them. Stop. Time to toughen up. If we lose our American democracy, we will also lose our national security. Russia must be removed from the UN Security Council.

Michael Moore, who correctly predicted Trump would win in 2016 says for the midterms, DEMOCRATS will turnout a “tsunami of voters — and nonviolently, legally, and without mercy remove every last stinking traitor to our Democracy.” I hope he’s right!

When you wake up tomorrow morning the team at @DemocracyDocket will be tracking close to 175 lawsuits in nearly every state in the county. That is why we say the future of democracy is on the docket. https://democracydocket.com/cases/

BITCOIN

Legend of Satoshi Nakamoto:

– First anonymous decabillionaire
– Leaves to do other things
– Donates all their coins

Bernanke gets the Nobel Prize in Economics.
Not a joke. Former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke wins 2022 Nobel Prize for Economics for work on financial crises.
!!!!!!! Bernanke introduced QE and bailed out banks in 2008. !!!!!!!!

Satoshi Nakamoto deserves the Nobel Peace prize and the Nobel prize for Economics. When the Nobel Committee gives Satoshi Nakamoto the prize is when it can even START to get legitimacy. Now that was a breakthrough in computing, finance, mathematics, and economics all in one. Until then it’s just establishment hacks scratching each other’s backs. #Bitcoin

Jimmy Song – Ownership of fiat currency is trust placed in bankers and/or politicians.#Bitcoin is trusting in code, energy and yourself.

Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party
“A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without the burdens of going through a financial institution.” – Satoshi Nakamoto
