BREAKING: Look at this.
A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.
30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.
The market dumped.
The trader made +$192 million in two hours.
Unusual.

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."

Maine's governor promised she'd see Trump in court. She just declared victory.

The bigger question we should be asking is: Why are Trump officials using Signal for their communications instead of formal, traceable channels?
The answer seems clear — to avoid transparency.
