RT @RonFilipkowski: What products are billionaires selling at the White House today? Maybe back to some crypto? NFTs? Trump shoes? Citizens…

@WontMarch4Soros @rawsalerts I believe you’re correct, they want control and they can’t do that when it is decentralized. Same situation with crypto. Centralized=bad, decentralized=good

Strongly disagree @MaryBowdenMD. Food assistance is about providing basic calories to keep people alive.
So, the promise or commitment is sustainment, not cash. The writer openly states that it is “up to them how they spend their money.” That is true. When they go earn some money they can spend it on whatever they want. But, if they are spending money we paid in taxes and the intent with that money is to provide calories then they absolutely can pick from a category of items that benefits the giver. For example, they should be encouraged to buy fresh ag products because it also benefits our farmers and those food are obviously more healthy than a box of processed who-knows-what.
Another way of looking at it is to ask if a grocery store that is approved to take SNAP would begin selling framing nails then would it be ok for the users to buy framing nails with their allotment?
Of course not! Framing nails are not life-sustaining calories.
Further, the CBDC example is confusing because of the obvious control mechanism it represents but that control is over OUR DOLLARS that we’ve earned and potentially been forced to put into a digital conveyor. I don’t think a CBDC will happen in America without significant other options.
Now, the government does already have a form of SBDC in the SNAP process and because those funds are given for life-sustaining calories, I do agree that those funds should be limited to actual and real food.
Think of it this way. Congress could pass $1000 in spending for fencing for a secure building. Would it then be ok for the government division to go buy tires for government vehicles with that money? Of course not.
So, when we set up a welfare benefit for life-continuing calories, why would he allow it to be spent on garbage that happens to be package and sold as food?

OK, I am talking into my phone. Watch this video. Roger Ver is one of the patriarchs of crypto. One of the things that he does not mention in this video is the desire for the globalist to figure out how to replace the federal reserve in a crypto environment. pic.x.com/TEKGPSk1bc x.com/TuckerCarlson/…

This is a good example to highlight why we DO NOT want the rapidly coming centralized crypto. Through it, they will track everything including what you eat. This is UnAmerican! x.com/jsmith4966/sta…

@CryptoWendyO @bennyjohnson Someday. Most in America do not understand how the blockchain works yet. Each voter could be managed with an EFT. Simple. Clean. Secure.

This morning I am also participating in the #SubOversight hearing on the energy impacts of cryptocurrency and blockchains. I'm excited that the 8th District's own Steve Wright, formerly of Chelan PUD, will be joining the hearing as a witness! Tune in: youtube.com/watch?v=HWg731… x.com/EnergyCommerce…

This week I was thrilled to welcome Steve Wright, former GM of Chelan PUD as a witness to a #SubOversight hearing to speak about how NCW counties took action to keep electricity affordable & reliable for consumers in the face of increased demand from crypto miners. Watch below! pic.x.com/XeZSWFXaT7

The House just took a major step forward by passing the GENIUS Act. It establishes clear rules for stablecoins to protect consumers, boost market confidence, and strengthen America’s lead in the digital economy. I'm proud to have voted YES!

@DavidBahnsen I’d always thought Scaramucci was a bit of a dolt. His policy arguments aren’t grounded in much intellectual heft, but I enjoyed this conversation and the anecdotes of his mentoring and respect for his father. I’m a crypto sceptic, but his defense of Bitcoin is worth a listen.
