The One Hundred Billion Dollar Bitcoin Heist
FOOD FOR THOUGHT, 30 Dec 2024

23 Dec 2024 – This is corruption in its purest form, happening right out in the open. Trump and the Republicans are ramming through the so-called “Bitcoin Act,” a scheme to liquidate U.S. gold reserves and blow $1 billion on Bitcoin, slapping taxpayers with a staggering $100 billion tab. A blatant wealth transfer to the crypto elite.
But are we surprised? Trump’s White House was a billionaire bunker, stuffed with Wall Street hustlers and influence-peddlers who greased the wheels with record-setting pay-to-play donations. Now, they’re raiding the Treasury, picking the bones of the middle class, and laughing all the way to their offshore accounts. It’s the same tired playbook: privatize the profits, socialize the losses. And just to twist the knife, Musk and Ramaswamy’s ridiculous DOGE plan promises to gut programs that millions of Americans rely on. The rich get richer; everyone else gets fleeced.
