Given the incoming, administration’s interest in crypto I’m assuming that the point of this is to make cash in a bank as secure as crypto in a digital wallet. That would make all the crypto boys happy. It would also probably make the Trump family a lot of money.

Michael, I deeply appreciate the work you are doing. I can’t imagine the pressure you, and all other truth telling journalists are under now, and for the next four years. Stay strong! Stay true! Know that many are rooting for you!

Loved your comment,”Americans who sign up for Medicare Advantage may not realize the extent to which they are exposing themselves to the delay-and-deny strategy private insurers often use to avoid paying for care.” Leaving an HMO for Medicare was a major upgrade in my quality of life.

MIT does need blind admissions and need based aid. Your friend’s kid doesn’t actually have to play baseball to stay at MIT.
