@JSeyff I will politely disagree from SoCal only. $1M is $400k after taxes (federal and state income and all the bullsh*t CA taxes on gas, house, etc.). Add rent/mortgage, private school tuition for multiple kids (if you need faith-based), insane cost of living, insurance products, etc…

@Marc_Fagel Eels so good…upset at myself for forgetting about them. Will reacquaint this week. Will be like novacaine for the soul.

@DavidLat Always apologize for typos but NEVER edit a post. You must live with it as an eternal reminder of your grammatical malpractice.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@nickjudin This why I always use declarations. Never trusted the pomp and circumstance of affidavits.

@crypto_crazy1 @PatrickMcHenry I’m actually against term limits because we already have them…elections. If we the people are too stupid to vote out “our” guy that’s been there for 24 years we deserve what we get.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

While Brian Armstrong IS a total chud, @PatrickMcHenry is as wrong here as he was ineffective in advancing crypto legislation. Legacy financial institutions were the 2nd largest reason for no bill; Trump meme coin corruption was the largest (which McHenry tacitly approved).

[Eleanor Terrett @EleanorTerrett]

🚨NEW: Former House Financial Services Chair @PatrickMcHenry just delivered blistering criticism of the crypto industry on @BloombergTV for squandering its best opportunity to pass market structure legislation this year:

“Frankly, you had a crypto coalition that blew it. They had an opportunity to legislate, and they were holding out for something that was unattainable, a perfect piece of legislation. And rather than take something that was good, many of them held out for perfection, and now have ended up with nothing legislatively.”

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@Flintfootmartin @PatrickMcHenry I’m not sure on that but we’ll never know. Would have then been on Dems to object entirely on Trump ethics grounds. Would have been interesting to see that play out, especially with Armweak and banksters on board in that hypothetical.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@TheNaturalCube @PatrickMcHenry No. But I honestly believe without Trump coin that enough Senators could have been bought (and had the political cover) to vote yes.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@crypto_crazy1 @PatrickMcHenry Hunter’s money grab, Donny’s money grab, congressional insider trading money grab…sometimes I wish our politicians could stop the bickering and see how similar their belief systems are!

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@dennis11035353 @PatrickMcHenry Pee Wee did so much too to make them cool. Why, Patty? WHY?!?

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@SandyyyShores @PatrickMcHenry Definitely a huge missed opportunity

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@duckaholic47 @PatrickMcHenry Did not say it was illegal (corruption does not always mean illegal). It was, like 99% of meme coins, a legal-yet-distasteful money grab. And it provided the fodder necessary for Dems to oppose crypto legislation for the reason they always oppose legislation, “because Trump.”

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@WilliamBaude Hey, if this made you angry, you’re right to be angry.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@scott_colom @patrickgaspard @RyanSayles_ Senator Colom? NO.

More like Senator ColomBO. That ad was classic!!

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@tedcruz i ain’t reading all that

or sorry your dad killed Kennedy

@Marc_Fagel Fagel/Rispoli podcast this time around.

“Crypto & Cadence” - discussing crypto and good music

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

Well, with the incoming attack on the crypto industry looming, at least it will be nice to be relevant again.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@mattgaetz Buddy, Iran was 1 week away before the war. Trump doubled the timeline with his heroic, bold move to attack.

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@CryptoWendyO Yes. It’s rewarding to be able to vote for the person you trust; the person you know with certainty will fix the broken system if elected .

Which is why I always vote for myself. For every office that has a write-in option. If a majority of people could just do this…

[Fred Rispoli @freddyriz]

@scottmelker In the end, it seems like the candidates’ real journey through the issues were the friendships they forged with donors along the way.

I like happy endings.
