Coinbase appears to have violated campaign finance laws with a $25 million super PAC donation
Actively involved in contract negotiations with a federal government agency, Coinbase was likely prohibited from making its $25 million contribution to the Fairshake cryptocurrency-focused super PAC in May 2024.Molly White (Citation Needed)
As Grewal already knows perfectly well, we have replied to what he had to say about the complaint in a supplemental filing: citizen.org/wp-content/uploads…
As for being “put on notice”, I don’t know what he means by that.
Coinbase’s Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal has now replied with a threat:

As an active federal contractor, Coinbase is prohibited from making political contributions, including to super PACs. This makes $50 million that they have contributed in violation of pay-to-play laws for contractors.

A commenter at Citation Needed suggested I have not adequately explained why I support Kamala Harris, and why I believe it is absolutely critical that everyone who can vote comes out to vote for her. In case I have indeed not been clear, here is my response.
PLEASE vote.

Hell yes! The Seattle Times edit board endorses Harris for president | Frank Blethen and Kate Riley
As one of the country’s very few family-owned and -operated metro newspapers left, The Seattle Times is also apparently one of the few willing to endorse presidential candidates, write the publisher and editorial page editor.The Seattle Times
Next time, someone should encourage MacKenzie Scott or Melinda Gates to buy newspapers and make presidential endorsements.
Meanwhile, we're not going back!

The MacKenzie Effect: How Billionaire MacKenzie Scott Is Changing the Giving Game
A $36 billion fortune made Scott one of the richest women in the world. How she’s giving it away makes her fascinating.Andrew Zucker (Town & Country)
Both #Trump and #Harris are ridiculous candidates, and the parties need to be held accountable for that.
I can't help but keep thinking about how Harris has been openly talking about ignoring Congress, ignoring the law, ignoring the democratic process, to implement her preferences while claiming that Trump is the authoritarian even as he is also being bashed for promising to give up power, promising to relinquish power away from the federal government to the states.
This is the level of nonsense we have in #USPolitics these days. It's absolutely #Orwellian.
And beside all of that, this platform seems really eager to promote those propagandistic messages.

Jeff Bezos has caved in to fascism by forbidding his Washington Post editorial staff from endorsing Kamala Harris in a likely quid pro quo with Mango Mussolini.
Jeff Bezos engaged in illegal union-busting tactics, spending over $14 million in 2022 alone to undercut his employees' rights.
Jeff Bezos spent $500 million to build his personal floating mansion Koru, the tallest sailing yacht in the world that is so big, it has its own 250-foot support yacht.
Jeff Bezos, executive chairman of Amazon, extorts 50% of revenue from sellers on the monopolistic retail website Amazon.com.
Jeff Bezos this year bought his *fourth* private jet for $80 million, a Gulfstream G700 luxury business jet that travels near the speed of sound. Bezos’ plane made 28 flights in 39 days — leaving a carbon footprint of 264 tons, or 17 times what the average American emits in a year.
Jeff Bezos, as reported by ProPublica, filed a tax return in 2011 showing he lost money and received a $4,000 child tax credit from the US government during a year in which his wealth held steady at $18 billion.
I can go on and on, but how many reasons do you need to boycott anything he touches?

It's important to stop thinking of major newspapers as "News Organizations"
They aren't.
They're Oligarch Marketing Departments.
They're funded the same way billionaires maintain Politician Bribery slushfunds.

When the LA Times' owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong, killed its endorsement of Kamala Harris, he also quashed a multi-part series, tentatively called "The Case Against Trump," @TheWrap says. So far, three staffers — editorial writer Karin Klein, Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert Green and editorials editor Mariel Garza have quit over the lack of endorsement, with Klein calling Soon-Shiong a "chickensh**." To date, the LA Times Guild is the only institution from the paper that has commented publicly. Here's more — free registration may be required to read the full article.

To no one's surprise Trump is doing Putin's bidding, to continue to destabilize the U.S.
"...
For its part, the Russian government has exploited this interest. It has both turned a blind eye to far-right paramilitarism within its own borders and actively cultivated neo-Nazism in the West.
These decisions align with its broader project to sow discord in Western democracies and influence transcontinental relations, despite its relatively weak military and economy.
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s support for right-wing violence in the West constitutes an element in his broader destabilization campaign.
