That's amazing, even from Trump 🫣
Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us. So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

Imagine your government built upon open protocols that they can’t own, control, or manipulate…every interaction visible to all. What changes?

Maybe, just maybe?🤔
As president, I will make sure that your right to use and hold Bitcoin is inviolable. Bitcoin is not only a bulwark against totalitarianism and the manipulation of our money supply, it points the way toward a future in which government institutions are more transparent and more democratic.

Is it too much to ask for some kind of clarity!?
For two years, Democrats gave @GaryGensler a pass for his disastrous agenda. It's time for accountability. From his destructive climate disclosure rule to his regulation by enforcement of digital assets, Chair Gensler’s agenda has weakened capital markets & stifled innovation.

Vladimir Kara-Murza's final statement to the Russian court. This is bravery and leadership personified. This statement will go down in history like Martin Luther King’s letter from Birmingham jail. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Agreed, this is not the time to pick technology winners or losers in cryptocurrency technology. There is no crisis that compels hasty legislation.

The true battle is between fiat & crypto. On balance, I support the latter.

In retrospect, it was inevitable #Bitcoin
You can now buy a Tesla with Bitcoin

Funny 'cause it's true 😋
Bitcoiners have successfully meme’d and shitposted their way into convincing the world’s richest man to join them. Never bet against the internet.

Kudos to the SEC for acknowledging that a penniless GenZ’er can be just as sophisticated an investor as a Wall Street Boomer. Wealth does not equal investment acumen, just look at how the Wall Street “experts” missed the #Bitcoin rocket ship. 🤡 sec.gov/news/press-release/2…

A for profit prisons has perverse incentives. The goal of a business is to attract and retain as many customers as possible. Some things shouldn't be privatized.
