Coindesk is reporting that the infrastructure bill pending in the US Senate has language that would redefine cryptocurrency brokers.

The language seems to expand the definition from large exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini, to include software and hardware wallet developers, multisig service providers, and possibly even crypto miners. This could impact anyone running a Bitcoin Lightning node since Lightning channels require multisig. Basically, if you open a Bitcoin Lightning channel, does that mean you’re a “multisig service provider”?

Bitcoin’s Lightning Network enables commerce for everyone by facilitating instantaneous transactions, so small businesses that take Bitcoin Lightning payments could be facing another tax and reporting hit from DC.

The bottom line is that legislators need to engage industry stakeholders to help craft better legislation or, better yet, leave the tax increases and onerous regulation out altogether.

Do you remember when Democrats used to accuse Republicans of using the politics of fear to advance their agenda? Chuck Schumer doesn’t.

He recently claimed that if the Democrat infrastructure bill isn’t passed, that climate change is going to be worse than COVID.

That doesn’t even make sense. What does an infrastructure bill have to do with climate change?

Climate crisis ‘will be worse than COVID’: Schumer

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Wednesday that the climate crisis will be worse than the coronavirus pandemic and that Democrats are ready to respond with “big, bold action” unlike anything the U.S. and “this world has ever seen before.”

During a press conference with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., demanding climate action on Capitol Hill, Schumer said the country was at a “pivotal moment” to address climate change with Democrats now in power.

“This is a unique opportunity,” he said. “We are surrounded by evidence of the climate crisis — the fires out West, the heat waves, the floods — everywhere you look.

“Because of global warming, things are getting worse and worse. And I tell my constituents in New York: COVID was horrible, but if we do nothing on climate, starting within a few short years from now, each year will be worse than COVID, and each year will be worse than the previous year.”

“We know that we can’t let this moment pass us by,” he continued.

“It’s our time to act. And as majority leader, I have made it clear I will not pass an infrastructure package that does not reduce carbon pollution on a scale commensurate with the urgency of the climate crisis that we face. Plain and simple. And that’s what Democrats intend to do.”

This is all lies, and the media will let Schumer get away with it because they agree with the Democrat agenda.

Two California men developed oozing boils on their faces after receiving the Moderna Covid vaccine.

The men developed pus-filled bumps and swelling after taking the experimental jab.

Both men were given oral antibiotics and topical creams to treat the rashes.

Some patients are developing pus-filled bumps on their faces in a rare side effect after receiving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.

In a paper published on Wednesday from the University of California, San Francisco, researchers detailed the cases two men who sought medical care after getting their first or second dose of the vaccine.

They had facial swelling, crusting on the cheeks, pustules, but a course of antibiotics and ointments resolved the conditions within 10 days.

In the first case, a man in his 50s went to the ER four days after receiving his first dose of the Moderna vaccine and chills.

When he was examined, he did not have a fever but did have excessive swelling, pustules and cursing on his cheeks and near his eyes.

The patient was prescribed the antibiotic Cephalexin and halobetasol, a topical corticosteroid, and the condition resolved within seven days.

The second patient, a man in his 80s, visited the ER five days after being administered his second dose of the Moderna vaccine.

He told doctors within 24 hours of the shot, he had facial swelling that worsened over the next few days, being accompanied by redness and pain, as well as fatigue and fevers.

Upon examination, he was found to have small red bumps on the skins, pustules and crusting across his cheeks and nose.

He was prescribed two antibiotics – vancomycinand piperacillin/tazobactam – as well as tacrolimus, which is an immunosuppressive drug.

The US Department of Health and Human Services instructed its agents to conceal the actual scale of the coronavirus outbreak among children held at a facility in Fort Bliss, Texas, at the beginning of this year, according to an appeal, submitted on Wednesday to four congressional committees and government watchdogs.

HHS Whistleblowers claim th… by Jim Hoft

The paper cites two whistleblowers, Arthur Pearlstein and Lauren Reinhold, who were said to be “career federal civil servants”, and “served as volunteer detailees at the Fort Bliss Emergency Intake Site from April through June 2021”.

The whistleblowers alleged that usually, as they completed their tasks, the HHS Public Affairs Office would give them a paper instructing them to “make everything sound positive about the Fort Bliss experience and to play down anything negative” when asked.

They also pointed out that, “Every effort was made to downplay the degree of COVID infection at the site, and the size of the outbreak was deliberately kept under wraps”.

“At a ‘town hall’ meeting with detailees, a senior US Public Health Service manager was asked and refused to say how many were infected because ‘if that graph [of infections] is going to The Washington Post every day, it’s the only thing we’ll be dealing with and politics will take over, perception will take over, and we’re about reality, not perception’”, the document reads.

Aside from that, the manager at the Fort Bliss establishment allegedly didn’t pay attention to the fact that “children in the COVID tents were wearing basic disposable masks instead of N95 masks” and said that infected children don’t need N95 masks “even though uninfected detailees were working with the infected children”.

“COVID was widespread among children and eventually spread to many employees. Hundreds of children contracted COVID in the overcrowded conditions,” the complaint reads.

The document also contained other complaints related to irregularities at the facility. In particular, the authors mentioned managing problems, including a lack of clean underwear and unqualified employees working on children’s mental and emotional health.
