I'm not a fan of a lot of what Scott Melker puts out there. He was a shitcoiner and I imagine encouraged many people to get blown up last cycle investing in various defi type schemes. But his video today on the fed was incredible. He is a good communicator and he's taken a turn to being more bitcoin focused. If someone was going to go on a show like Rogan, I actually think Scott would do a better job than say someone like Saylor or Mallers. Check out his video, a wonderful reminder of why many of us got into bitcoin in the first place: @ODELL @TFTC

"I never knew him"

US media keeps using the phrase “heightened tensions with Cuba” to describe what is in reality unilateral US aggression, with illegal sanctions and threats of illegal invasion, against innocent people who repeatedly say they just want to be left alone.

Trump says he wants to 'take' Cuba because he objects to one family using the state as a vehicle for personal enrichment.

The reason it was so easy to mess with gold for multiple decades was because everyone held paper products instead of the real thing in their custody. This resulted in successful price suppression for 3 decades. The reason it’s so easy to mess with bitcoin today is because everyone holds paper products instead of the real thing in self custody. It is now tbd on how long wallstreet can successfully control price. Combine OG and whale redistribution with wallstreet paper products and you get current price action.

Corporate life will teach you that knowing the job is only half the battle. The real skill is staying calm in meetings, reading the room, managing ego, receiving vague feedback, and not replying to emails with your real thoughts and just being generally fake 8 hours a day for 40 year’s straight and not letting it drive you insane.

Trump just negotiated NO IRS AUDITS FOR LIFE. For him. His kids. His businesses. Meanwhile you're getting flagged for a $600 Venmo payment.

Someone who nobody has ever heard of, declined 8 debates, and took $20 million in donations from Israel “won” a primary from an 8 year constituent. We’re cooked.

nobody: trump: Today the EPA proposed repealing limits on multiple types of “forever chemicals” in drinking water. If finalized, the Trump administration proposal would end drinking water limits for four toxic PFAS.

remember when the magas like @HODL and @MartyBent were bitching constantly about Biden draining the SPR? I remember. Their silence now is golden. ----------------- Biden drained ~300mm barrels of oil from the SPR over ~2.5 years. Trump is going to drain ~170mm over ~7 months. From 640mm to 240mm in 5 years, all to protect boomers' asset prices. Together the political elite are paving the way for $250 oil prices in a few years.

Children living near Driscoll's strawberry farms have a 38% higher childhood cancer rate than average. But Driscoll's can't be sued for any of it. They don't own a single farm, grow a single berry or apply an ounce of pesticides themselves They are a genetics and marketing company making $3 billion a year, licensing plant patents to over 700 farms and taking a cut. Their president said it himself: "Driscoll's is not involved in the fruit farming" Researchers identified 13 pesticides linked to childhood cancer when sprayed within 2.5 miles of a home. 98.5% of those leukemia-linked pesticides were applied in Watsonville, California (Driscoll's main strawberry operation). - Schools sit just yards from the fields - 41,000 lbs of pesticides applied within 1 sq mi of an elementary school - Pesticides linger in the air for up to 72 hours Driscoll's is currently #1 strawberry in the U.S.
