During the vote, top bill backer Kirsten Gillibrand and chief opponent Elizabeth Warren got into a heated argument. Warren strongly believes this will pave the way for corruption, risk the stability of the financial system and allow more criming. Gillibrand argues this bill will protect consumers.

GILLIBRAND needs to RESIGN. Traitor
Gillibrand and Schiff. Bought and paid for.
Doesn't mean they're immune from criticism, though. Or primary challenges.
Losing my freaking mind
They've been claiming they'll publish an audit for 10 years and never done it. This law will make them publish an audit, or ban them in the US
I should have been clearer.
Is there a list of businesses selling goods and/or services using thether available somewhere?
But for US domestic payments it's mainly things where the government is stopping you using normal banking, eg lots of trans people on bsky buy HRT meds with crypto.
PS I'm not advocating buying Tether but people do and regulating/banning it would help

Gillibrand is a crypto clown.
Look at Gillibrand's campaign contributions: https://www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/kirsten-gillibrand/contributors?cid=N00027658&cycle=2024&type=I
AIPAC, NorPac, Coinbase, Andreessen Horowitz. And be sure to change the date to 2022 too!

Jeffries is from the same Brooklyn dem machine as Eric Adams if you can believe it
the bar to clear to be in the better half of U.S. government at this point is “not being a rapist”
Further more, I think you KNOW all that and are just practicing being a cunt just like Gillibrand.
Then there were seven more.
Most of it was partisan crap. But Gillibrand made the most of it because Franken was making a name for himself as a good legislator.
Sigh. So real.
This a promise for a future bailout that the peons will pay for.
Again.
The rest are rabidly feathering their nests while our rights burn.
Good to know at least.
Words mean nothing and actions mean everything
Crypto scammers just want a taste of that sweet “save the system” bailout money.
Sure, it’s corrupt and decadent — but is it really any worse than the ponzi finance complex that’s built around housing?
New York voters need to pull their heads out of their asses. Now.
(And neither she nor Schumer have had any notable opposition recently)
So far it’s been a choice between her and some even worse Republican, a lose-lose scenario. The options have not exactly been great.
No one in the entire state has the guts to challenge her yet it sounds like?
I can only think of times she’s been horribly wrong.
Dems are the enemy. Collaborators, appeasers, and cowards.
Crazy to think that they are bigger than pharma , energy, insurance, healthcare, defense, AIPAC, etc.
money talks in dc
Trump money.
They have no good excuse.
Left-populism as espoused by Bernie and Warren is seen as a dead end electorally (and I think this is correct), and certain senators think crypto is the future and are deluding themselves into insisting it's *not* a scam fiesta (which I think is incorrect and dangerous).
She was explaining them to Biden even before she was in the Senate (did not change his vote on some shell company thing that was bad policy but would have played poorly in Delaware).
Add an amendment to force everyone to register as an organ donor & donate blood twice a year (to force a case on body autonomy).
Add an amendment to prevent the teaching of religion to children under 18 (as a response to anti-LGBTQ laws).
Gillibrand also has taken on the role of DSCC chair, which makes her the Senate D's fundraiser in chief.
There is NO underlying value to Bitcoin/Crypto!!
NO pallets of gold bars.
NO piles of platinum.
Bitcoin is not backed by gold, silver, or government promises. Instead, it draws value from its unique combination of scarcity, utility, decentralization, and trust in the blockchain.
