Emboldened Biden, Dems push ban on so-called assault weapons
"President Biden raged the idea of trying to pass an assault weapons ban after two mass shootings in a week, but he'll likely face an uphill battle in Congress. It was Thanksgiving Day after 6 people were gunned down in a Walmart and 5 killed at a Colorado Springs gay bar. I'm gonna try to get rid of a subway. On NBC's meet the press, Colorado governor Jared polis, says something needs to be done. It's about mental health. Of course, it's about gun policy. Of course, it's about anti LGBTQ rhetoric.

Also on the show, Kentucky Republican congressman James comer. Cities that have the most strict gun laws like Washington, D.C., Chicago, these are the cities with the highest rate of crimes comer says he'd support legislation aimed at improving mental health access and boosting law enforcement.

"Regulatory positivity side, residents of Colorado can now pay their state taxes with crypto. To do so they have to use PayPal crypto tools and they have an additional fee, but at least it's a sign of legitimacy. Colorado is led by governor Jared polis, who is one of the most forward looking U.S. politicians when it comes to crypto and tech in general. Finally, on the weirdness front, the Treasury Department has published a request for comment asking the public to weigh in on how crypto might be used in a legal activities and how it should respond. The weirdness for me doesn't stem from whether treasury should be dealing with these issues one 100% they should. It's more about the strangeness of this being what they ask the public to comment on. Take this question. How can the U.S. Department of the Treasury and concert with other government agencies improve guidance and public private communication on anti money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism and sanctions obligations with regard to digital assets? The question is how much does the public have to say about that? Now, of course, public comment quote unquote still could mean that it's really for a very small number of enfranchised organizations to comment. And what's more in general, I'm for the government asking for more, not less of people's opinions. It's just strange that this particular issue is one where there is a request for comment when there's so many other issues that the public might have an even stronger opinion on. Now, let's look at some pre and post narrative institutionalization. And first I'll define my terms. Institutionalization during the last run was very much narrative. And what I mean by that is that the bull run really got started with the idea of institutions finally actually coming to the space. Specifically with the idea of Bitcoin as an inflation hedge. There was Paul Tudor Jones great monetary inflation thesis, and of course Michael saylor's Bitcoin buy, which led to Tesla's Bitcoin buy, et cetera, et cetera. What I mean by post narrative institutionalization is the slow deliberate but clear process that has been happening this entire bear market

The Fear of School Lockdowns Is Bipartisan
"I am of the opinion that Ron DeSantis is setting a model for governors everywhere. The president can't do anything about school unions. Because it's a governor's authority. But there are emergency powers vested in almost every state governor. They can I think they can fire the teachers if they don't go to work. I think governor can do that. I think desantis will. What do you think about schools being closed at this two years into the pandemic when we fully are aware of the consequences of school closure? Well, look, I don't think there's any political well, I should say this. I think there's very little political will for it on both sides of the aisle. One of the things that I find encouraging, but also very interesting is that some of the sharpest pushback to move lockdowns and school closures has been coming from democratic governors and democratic officials. Some of them are not going to be as appointed or aggressive in their language about it because the teachers unions are allies and the Democratic Party and important allies from a political perspective. But I can just tell and looking at Colorado governor Jared polis, the new mayor of New York, Eric Adams. Even from The White House, there's just very little appetite for this sort of thing. As there should be at this point, given all we know about the virus given the vaccines in the Therapeutics we have and given how we know this impacts kids.
