Meanwhile, this same admin pardons criminals. To all the fucking morons in the #btc community who voted for Trump because you heard him say the word #bitcoin, you have helped the feds destroy privacy even further. Fuck you all, bunch of brainless sheep. 🖕 US Government Seeks Maximum Sentence For Keonne Rodriguez And William Hill The US Government is seeking the maximum sentence of five years for Samourai Wallet developers Keonne Rodriguez and William Hill, who plead guilty to conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitter earlier this year. According to the Government, Hill and Rodriguez "solicited criminals" to launder money through Samourai Wallet not as a byproduct but as a feature, claiming that the developers intended for the privacy service to be used to launder proceeds of crime from the outset. The defendants are asking the court to be sentenced to time served.

She is so fucking stupid and incompetent, NOTHING would have been accomplished. Instead we get people who claim to care about freedom begging massa for more chains. And if you think Trump wasnt installed (again), well, good luck with that.

I think there is room for nuance, neither choice was optimal, but one choice was much better than the other. It is what it is, take the half-win.

A half win (which this is not) is still half loss. What exactly do you think she would have done that is worse than a billion dollar military budget, than military and masked thugs grabbing people off the streets (often Americans by birth), giving Elon and Palantir open access to all data the gov has, murdering random people in boats without any cause or evidence, more money to Ukraina and Isreal, trying to go to war with a few more nations, a WH renovation when people struggle to eat, intentionally cause prices to rise with his tariff bullshit, to name a few. So, just one thing you think she would have done that is worse than any of that.
