Cryptocurrencies rallied on Sunday after President Donald Trump announced the creation of a U.S. strategic crypto reserve that will include bitcoin
and ether
, as well as XRP
, Solana’s SOL
token and Cardano’s ADA
, he said in a post on Truth Social.
“A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA,” the post said. “I will make sure the U.S. is the Crypto Capital of the World.”
“And, obviously, BTC and ETH, as other valuable Cryptocurrencies, will be at the heart of the Reserve,” he said in a follow-up post. “I also love Bitcoin and Ethereum!”
That was before crypto cheerleader Musk dumped $270M into TRE45QN's campaign, and before DonOLD realized that he could scam his supporters with crypto:
We excel at growing corn, soybeans ans wheat. Much more than we can consume and we are the largest exporter of grains. But we grow so much that we actually pay farmers to not grow at times.
How's this going to work out?
Might be a good time to short grain futures.

I've gptta get some beer before I watch the trump LAW show tomorrow night. This is what will happen.....it will be a veritable jamboree of trump LAW (Lying And Whining) that will include but not be limited to:
trump brag law; general LAW about the election, how it was a mandate, the biggest victory ever, etc.
trump victim law: more LAW about the "Russia hoax" and more trump LAW about how the election he lost was rigged.
trump immigrant law: trump LAW about immigrant crime and crime rates in general
trump law about how great his administration is: he will LAW about the quality and experience of his cabinet members
trump law about weaponization of the justice system: more trump LAW about how this happened to him and how he's put a stop to it (never mind that everything he's been charged with is due to his own actions and never mind that the thing he's LAWing about is actually what he's doing) And the cult gushes in awe.
Then at the end he will spout some final trump LAW as a "weave" of his greatest LAW hits to a rousing five minute round of applause from the sick and deluded. I sure hope I have enough beer.
Also, don't forget he signed his own trade deal with Canada and Mexico (USMCA) during his first term. During his current term, he asked "who would sign such a thing" or something to that effect, forgetting it was his own fucking trade deal.
This dude is a complete moron. I will never understand how this guy has so many duped.

The conservative Wall Street Journal’s editorial board summed up President Donald Trump’s newly-imposed 25% tariffs on all goods from Mexico and Canada with a short but scathing headline.
“Trump Takes the Dumbest Tariff Plunge,” read the title of the newspaper’s withering opinion piece published Monday.
The board acknowledged it had “courted Mr. Trump’s ire by calling the Mexico and Canada levies the ‘dumbest’ in history.”
But it warned, “we may have understated the point.”
... As the stock market plunged over the development, the Journal pointed out: “Unbridled Tariff Man was always going to be a big economic risk in a second term, and here we are.”
Crap, 2 days away from lowering the risk on my retirement account.
The newspaper has in recent weeks condemned Trump’s anti-Ukraine rhetoric amid its ongoing invasion by Russia, warned against the U.S. withdrawal from Europe and condemned the president’s moves to create a sovereign wealth fund.
Tonight's great trump LAW speech to Congress - vol 2
trump will LAW about the Capitol riot he instigated and give Ashli Babbitt an honorable LAW mention.
trump will LAW about his pardons of Jan 6th insurrectionists and seditionists and LAW that they were "treated so badly."
trump will LAW about how he put out the CA fires by "turning on the water."
trump will LAW about fentanyl, how much of it is being brought in, and who is bringing it.
trump will LAW about how he "stood up for America" by disrespecting the president of Ukraine.
trump will LAW that he "ended" an EV mandate that never existed.
I think this, along with vol 1, pretty much covers it. But he could throw in a few more stinking rotten mackerel on us as well.

You have the outline for an excellent drinking game, but as GoCubsGo says, "There is not enough beer," for me to watch. I'll read the fact check articles tomorrow.
Comes on at 6p here. Won't be a problem to find something else to do/watch. Can't imagine anybody thinking he's going to say anything true/accurate, or helpful.

Hoping the dems either don't show up or walk out.
Visually embarrassing him would have the greatest impact and piss him off the most.
I'll be catching up on White Lotus.

We had a great experience today driving through Carlsbad. Along the seawall walk were hundreds of people, probably at least a quarter-mile long with anti-Trump anti-Musk pro-Ukraine signs. People in cars were waving and blowing horns. Those were answered by the marchers with cheers and enthusiastic sign-waving. One had a sign "Are You Mad Yet?" to which the expected answer was "hell yes!" and more shouts "hell yes!"
Of course, it's deep blue California and not Texas, but it still seemed encouraging. The people out were mostly residents of a good economic area, all looked literate with signs spelled correctly. And all were pissed.
It's a mystery.
