Michael Barr: The clear and present danger to Bitcoin, the SBR, crypto and financial liberty in general. This man is basically untouchable. He is sworn to kill Bitcoin and to save the Keynesian slave empire run by the Fed. Bitcoin will not thrive until he's gone. @SenMikeLee @SenLummis federalreserve.gov/aboutthef…

When they openly and gleefully say they want to kill your kids, believe them. This communist is now top law enforcer in Virginia. Plan accordingly.

To my last post. She's been convicted for financial crimes yet still preaches to us plebs as if she has authority.

This. Precisely what I voted for. The US must save the world from the likes of the EU and their CBDC tyranny.
17 years after the white paper, the Bitcoin network is still operational and more resilient than ever. Bitcoin never shuts down. @SenateDems could learn something from that.

I'll write a longer post on this in a few weeks, but I wanted to respond to all the recent AI FUD regarding whether or not AI LLMs can actually code anything valuable. Yes. They can. I have been using SWE LLMs heavily for the past 2-3 years. But there's a huge caveat: You must already know how to code whatever it is you want coded yourself before you delegate the actual code-writing to an SWE. This is because the model will, 100% of the time and with any of the "coding models" in the top-tier, deviate off course unless you know very specifically everything you would need to do as a seasoned, veteran software engineer already yourself. Otherwise, you get something out the other end that strictly meets whatever prompts you gave it, but which doesn't actually come anywhere near a real MVP of any sort. This is because in the real world you must account for a ginormous amount of factors, toolings, infra, edge-cases, logging requirements, monitoring requirements, inter-process messaging, thread concurrency, database recovery, etc. No existing model will just do all that for you unless you specify everything and then correct the model as it "thinks" and produces code iterations. Unfortunately, this means that these models are effective at replacing entry-level and junior engineers. But they aren't capable of replacing senior engineers, architects, and the like. Maybe someday they will replace that, too. But I believe that's a long way off still because it really equates to these models learning a much broader context of business-requirements which are adjacent to or marginal factors in the core technical-requirements. Referenced: - Claude Code - Grok Code Fast - Gemini AI for Coders - Copilot (Right now Claude Code blows the others away, irrespective of Elon's bragging. Grok is good at JS, Python, etc., but sucks at C++, Rust, or functional languages)

Why are communists getting elected? Three reasons: 1. The @federalreserve are frauds, many not even actual economists, who have failed us with their Keynesian nonsense. 2. People are economically illiterate. 3. The media are themselves communist apparatchik. Pain approaches.

Bitcoin: 1. Open source: You can read the code yourself. Every line. You can monitor branches, proposed changes (PRs), tickets and forum debates yourself without any permission. You can even write your own proposed changes and submit a PR yourself. That doesn't mean it will be accepted, but it will be considered if it passes the minimum requirements for code quality and the reason for the proposed changes. 2. Trustless network: Because of how Bitcoin has been designed, you don't have to put your trust into anyone or anything other than: a) The lines of code, which you can observe, inspect, and even download and run through locally with a debugger, line-by-line, if you want to prove to yourself that each and every value and state are as intended. b) The node you use to transmit transactions to the network or to observe balances of UTXOs 3. Self Sovereign: You can (and should) run your own node. There are even choices of flavors. You can run Core or Knots. Nodes are not miners. They don't take much resource to run. Nodes are open source themselves, so you can apply the features of (1) to the node you choose to run. 4. Self Validating: Because of all the above: a) It is irrelevant who invented Bitcoin b) It is impossible for any single actor to subvert Bitcoin c) It is impossible for any nation-state to dominate Bitcoin unless they literally choose to buy or otherwise control 51% of the network ---------------- For these reasons, @TuckerCarlson is not only wrong, he's intentionally ignorant. I would hope Tucker is capable of reason and learning. But I have learned to have zero expectations from journalists of any ilk. The last true journalist died when my late father passed.

JACK MALLERS: “If you think knowing who created Bitcoin matters, you don’t understand it. Bitcoin is open source. Nobody has special rights, and everyone can verify that. It doesn’t matter who created Bitcoin. Bitcoin is neutral technology, like math.”
Tucker Carlson: “CIA is Satoshi” Retarded .eths: “Jack Dorsey is Satoshi” Bcashers: “Adam Back is Satoshi” BSVers: “Craig Wright is Satoshi” HBO: “Peter Todd is Satoshi” XRP bros: (whatever some influencer on TikTok or Instagram told me) Bitcoiners: just shut the fuck up

Don't hire communists. Don't befriend communists. Don't tolerate communists. ...berate, ridicule, and demean useful idiots.

I didn't need any more reasons to move to Florida. But here we are. One state has a feckless coward as a governor and is hurling itself into Californication as fast as possible. The other has a courageous governor who is currently eliminating all property taxes for homesteads.
The Salt Lake County Mayor proposing her 2026 budget Tuesday with 19.6% property tax increase.

Holy Smokes is Justice Jackson a bona fide idiot. Just wow.

Dear dilettantes who call themselves, journalists: We don't care about your career. Journalism was never a profession. Learn to code
Time to bring back the traditional punishment for seditious judges.
This was a racist verdict by a racist judge. The simple test to apply is if the races has been reversed, the White kids would be in prison. Equal justice for all!

Journalists are dilettante parasites. Learn to Code, cupcake.
NEW: How the Pentagon sidelined lawyers while testing the legal limits of military action New details about the firing of the Army’s top uniformed lawyer after he raised concerns about the use of the military domestically and mass firings; “political litmus tests” for TJAG candidates; internal legal concerns about US military strikes in the Caribbean; and JAG officers who say they’re just trying not to get fired.

I thought all the simpering dilettantes who call themselves, journalists, left for PedoSky. I was shocked to see them all crying about being asked to kindly not commit sedition or treason. Learn to code.

Just look at these dilettantes licking one another's faces, basking in their mutual admiration society. Remember kids: 1. Journalism is not a profession, and never was. 2. The Fourth Estate is contrived gatekeeping by self-declared elitists. 3. Journalists are exceptionally average in virtually every aspect, save for a slightly above average charisma. 4. They are obsolete, though most haven't accepted it yet. You and I are the media. The Framers knew this, which is why the First Amendment doesn't say a word about "journalists". Decentralization ends the central gatekeeper state. I would suggest they learn-to-code, as they so cynically sneered at everyone else a few years ago. But we all know they're simply too dumb to actually comprehend the logical rigor required to code.

Sure, I'll enumerate them for you: 1. He cannot stop feeding the legacy mainstream media, despite the fact it is what's keeping them alive and the fact they hate him, as do all their remaining viewers. 2. He cannot hire a competent Attorney General 3. He cannot properly whip the Cuckpublicans in Congress to support his agenda. 4. He cannot avoid backing people whom we all know hate him and want to block his agenda. On that last point, many have pointed out numerous individuals who should either (a) never have been appointed or, (b) should have been promptly fired. They've pointed out State Department, Justice Department, and others. I'll focus on one in my area of expertise: The Federal Reserve. Why is Michael Barr still there, precisely? This man is singlehandedly pledged to prevent Trump's Bitcoin and Crypto agendas. He's exceptionally close with Elizabeth Warren and the anti-crypto Democrats. He personally hates Trump and has spoken frequently about dismantling MAGA. But he's still there, without even a peep from fucking anyone in Trump's universe. He has unilateral power to disrupt and prevent Bessent's agenda. Trump has proven incapable of fixing this. x.com/notakeynesian/status/1…
Is there anything President Trump cant do?
