Circuit weigh in before deciding if former President Donald Trump is immune from federal criminal conspiracy and obstruction charges stemming from his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election, denying special counsel John L. "Jack" Smith's request to bypass the appellate court.

Mafia goon and Pedophile, Elon Musk, preaches and practices total compliance to Gary Genslers tiny little dick.

The People's Bank of China (PBoC) has addressed issues related to cryptocurrency regulation and decentralized finance (DeFi) in its latest financial stability report, in which it calls for a worldwide effort to establish crypto rules. And in related news corpse-media zombies keep yelping for crypto regulation. On the same day, the SEC said in a new filing that it “deeply regrets” certain errors that the agency made during an enforcement proceeding. Paul Grewal, the chief legal officer of Coinbase, pointed out that while the SEC claims to “regret” its errors, its chair is “browbeating an entire American industry.” The lawyer questioned why any taxpayer or judge should believe in those regrets. There is total global chaos on regulation of the anarchic internet, in general, and rapidly spreading cryptoanarchism in particular. The situation is excellent!

Trump Is About to Hear a Big Fraud Verdict https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2023-12-19/donald-trump-versus-a… Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial in New York is drawing to a close — testimony recently ended — and sometime in early 2024, a state judge will rule on the case. It’s within the judge’s power to impose a fine of as much as $250 million on Trump and permanently ban him and his company from ever doing business in New York again. The state where Trump grew rich may send him into financial exile.

Arizona Man Arrested for Making Online Threats Against Federal Agents and Employees
by Gunnar Larson 21 Dec '23

https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/arizona-man-arrested-making-online-threats-a… For Immediate Release Office of Public Affairs Michael Lee Tomasi, 37, of Rio Verde, Arizona, was arrested on Friday after a grand jury indicted him on three counts of threats against a federal official and three counts of making interstate threats. According to court documents, from May 2021 through November 2023, while living in Colorado and Arizona, Tomasi used a social media platform to express a desire to incite violence and threaten a variety of individuals and groups, including elected officials, a judge, and federal officials and law enforcement officers. The charges against Tomasi relate to threats he made in Arizona to federal law enforcement agents and employees. “The threats of violence against public officials alleged in this indictment are abhorrent,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “The defendant is specifically charged with threatening to kill FBI agents and other FBI employees just for doing their jobs. I am deeply proud of the work the FBI does every day; its personnel should not have to deal with threats against themselves as they work to protect the American people. The Justice Department will not stand for such heinous behavior and will prosecute threats against its employees to the fullest extent of the law.” “In this country, there’s a right way and a wrong way to express your views under the Constitution, and violence or threats of violence is not it,” said FBI Director Christopher Wray. “The men and women of the FBI work tirelessly and selflessly to protect others every day, and we will continue to work with our partners to hold accountable those who make violent threats against them or any of our colleagues in law enforcement.” “Threats against law enforcement personnel like those alleged in this indictment are not just polemics, they are illegal under federal law and corrosive to civic life and dialogue,” said U.S. Attorney Gary Restaino for the District of Arizona. If convicted, Tomasi faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for each count of making threats against a federal official, and a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine for each count of making interstate threats. The FBI is investigating the case. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona is handling the prosecution. An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. Updated December 18, 2023
