Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Easiest way for putin to slide him cash.
Crypto is an easy way for Trump to sidestep the banks that will no longer do business with him
With all the Russian ransomware hackers that Putin refuses to prosecute or extradite to jurisdictions that will (and quite possibly are even state sponsored) this is an ideal move for Trump. There is so much room for fraud and corruption in that space.
Criminals love crypto. It was only a matter of time.
How it started: Crypto is just digital cash.
How it's going: Crypto is still digital cash.
Watchdogs need to stop having concerns and start funding lawsuits.
Money laundering has ALWAYS been trump family business. Crypto is their latest tool
~~Crypto is the new~~ Trump family business. Ethics watchdogs have concerns.
Trump family ~~business~~. Ethics watchdogs have concerns.
The all-encompassing ethos of malicious self-interest that both trump and the crypto community embody makes them a perfect match for each other.
I'm honestly shocked that TrumpCoin wasn't a thing already and being pushed to the maga group
I’m sure he’ll get Shkrelli and Musk to start working on that right away.
Shouldn't this say everything that has to be said about crypto?
How much do ethics watchdogs make and what are the qualifications
