Our position as the global financial leader is a privilege, not a right. Other countries have a head start on us in the development of digital assets. If we get this wrong, we handicap ourselves and put our future prosperity at risk.

@AnthonySabatini @SecBlinken @UN I love 🇺🇸 enough to want us to be the best version of ourselves. We’re not going to break by asking for criticism we can then take or leave.

@AnthonySabatini , was boot camp sunshine and roses, or were you put under pressure to become your best? The US can grow, too.

@KevinMc24166831 @MambaMaws @SecBlinken @UN There is a diff. But if a group of people are crying out with their voices their whole lives to say, “we are afraid; the police are killing us,” and nothing meaningfully changes, what are they supposed to do? Just keep crying out as ppl die? What would you do if it was your kin?

@AchimLittlepage @SStacksats @CaitlinLong_ @nayibbukele It’s worth re-examining the assumption that people in ES won’t be able to figure out the best path for themselves and need you or me fretting about them or arguing about their access to additional options. If ppl have a prob w current $ and have options, they’ll figure in out.

@crypt0e @Cascadian4Life @PeterMcCormack Loomer is an active and intentional bigot. Unless she’s advocating violence she has the right to speak her hateful mind. But giving her your platform, Peter, does legitimize her views even if you disagree w her. It gives people who agree with her a dangerous sense of legitimacy.

@crypt0e @Cascadian4Life @PeterMcCormack If you’re in the US, freedom of speech is about freedom from government censorship, not a lack of social blowback. Society changes and more voices are valued now than used to be. With that comes new norms. That’s not bad and it’s not the government - it’s your fellow Americans.

@PrestonPysh @Breedlove22 What are your points of view on providing a basic safety net? I believe BTC solves monetary issues but given how wealth is currently distributed, absent some redistribution it seems like we’d have a lot of kids and families starving. What’s the transition?

@jjballer55555 @deblvsbabygroot @danheld https://t.co/5bFDORq4mY this image from the last cycle makes it a lot easier for me to sleep at night. Every pullback doesn’t signal the end of the bull market; there is lots of normal consolidation on the way.

@snackhole69 @Buckaroosamurai @ShawAndOrder @BrilliantBlkGrl Not sure what your motivation is, but nobody here works for you or owes you anything. I’d encourage you to listen to peoples’ experiences and see what you might learn instead of looking to win an argument. I’ll start: Do you have experience with policing that you’re drawing on?

COVID Update September 21: As the world approaches 1 million deaths, and the U.S. 200,000, where we go from here is the most important thing.

And there is a simple trick to slow and stop these deaths. 1/

@mother_night @MsKellyMHayes Yes! It took me a decade of Twitter news reading to get around to making a profile and, TBH, the reason I finally did it this summer was because everything was feeling so Jaws-y.

BREAKING: The CDC has changed their recommendation to now say to just send your kids to school.

The ⁦@CDCgov⁩ has fallen so so far. The document is sad. https://t.co/oe7BDClMCt

@MsKellyMHayes Kelly, I’ve been meaning to tell you for a while how much I appreciate your voice on here - this tweet seems like the right moment. I appreciate your clarity & humor so much. Thanks for your courageous work - please keep telling the truth.
