Before a crowd of crypto executives in the East Room of the White House, a jubilant Trump signed the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act into law

President Donald Trump signed the GENIUS Act into law yesterday, creating the first-ever framework for the United States to begin dealing in cryptocurrency on the Federal level. His actions were greeted with thunderous applause by the crypto titans assembled in the East Room of the White House. It’s funny, though, when Joe Biden signed an Executive Order back in 2022 to simply look into the creation of a digital dollar, everyone screamed “Mark of the Beast!!” Is anyone saying that now about Trump? We are, even if you won’t, and that’s the memo.

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16,17 (KJB)

Something else that wasn’t talked about yesterday when Trump signed the Genius Act was how much he personally has profited from crypto since becoming president the second time. According to Forbes, Trump has made over $1,000,000,000.00 in crypto and that number continues to grow. It’s bad when Biden did it, but it’s good when Trump does it, that seems to be the new end times logic going around. But to me, that type of thinking is more in line with the coming ‘strong delusion’ that anything else. Remember Habakkuk who says that you will see it, but not believe it, that’s where we are here on Day 1,951 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve.

Trump Signs GENIUS Act Into Law, Elevating First Major Crypto Effort to Become Policy

FROM COINDESK: President Donald Trump fulfilled part of his vow to establish U.S. crypto regulations on Friday, signing legislation into law that formally established rules for stablecoin issuers — marking a first step that the digital assets industry hopes will end with the more important regulatory regime governing the wider crypto markets.

Before a crowd of crypto executives in the East Room of the White House, a jubilant Trump signed the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, which registered a massive 308-122 bipartisan vote in the House of Representatives on Thursday and an earlier 68-30 vote in the Senate — demonstrating a huge margin of support from Democrats. Trump walked into a packed East Room filled with applauding lawmakers and industry leaders, including Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong, Tether’s Paolo Ardoino, Circle’s Jeremy Allaire, Gemini’s Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Kraken’s Dave Ripley, Chainlink’s Sergey Nazarov and others.

“So congratulations, you’ve come a long way since the Biden administration, when they had no idea what you were all talking about, and half of you are under arrest,” he joked at the outset.

Trump called out various members of Congress by name, alongside members of his Cabinet, saying they were instrumental in moving the legislation, as well as various industry leaders attending the ceremony.

“Let me say, the entire crypto community, for years, you were mocked and dismissed and counted out,” he said. “You were counted out as little as a year and a half ago, but this signing is a massive validation.”

The GENIUS Act will now be forwarded to the federal financial and banking agencies that must implement its various provisions. That will include formalizing the definitions for what kind of firms make acceptable issuers of stablecoins, which is a field currently dominated by Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, though Wall Street institutions have been jumping into the space at a rapid pace. Implementation of a law by federal regulators can be a drawn-out process, but GENIUS at least gives the industry a broad roadmap for how its U.S. interactions will look in the future. So pressure now shifts from lobbying to execution for stablecoin companies.

“The act sets a necessarily compliance baseline, but whether stablecoins can deliver their promise will depend on how effectively stablecoin issuers disclose reserves, implement operational safeguards, maintain robust governance practices and ensure structural alignment between issuers interests and consumer protection,” noted Rajeev Bamra, an associate managing director for digital economy at Moody’s Ratings, in a statement. “With broader adoption comes greater systemic responsibility of market participants.”

The industry has come a long way in Washington since its tumultuous 2022 in which several major businesses failed spectacularly, and crypto-supporting lawmakers were burned by the fall of global exchange FTX and its former CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, who was a fixture in congressional meetings and the industry’s D.C. events. But aggressive lobbying and a major campaign-finance push from the industry’s Fairshake political action committee during last year’s congressional elections elevated the sector into the good graces of the White House and Congress.

Trump has declared himself the crypto president, and his administration has routinely called for a “golden age” for the industry to begin. Now that GENIUS is law, the focus shifts toward the bigger task of passing legislation that defines the proper oversight of different forms of cryptocurrency, trading platforms and projects and assigns federal agencies to new roles as watchdogs over these markets.

White House Crypto and AI Czar David Sacks took the podium briefly to praise Trump and the legislation, saying that while he’s used to the tech world moving quickly, the speed at which GENIUS became law “this was fast for us in Silicon Valley.”

“This GENIUS Act will unlock American dominance in the crypto industry by creating clear rules of the road,” he said. “It will update archaic payment rails with a revolutionary new payment system, and it will extend U.S. dollar dominance, like [Trump] said, globally by creating a digital dollar that people all over the world can use. And for every digital dollar in a crypto wallet, there’ll be a traditional dollar in a U.S. bank account, which will create trillions of dollars demand for U.S Treasuries.” READ MORE

How Does Genius Act Signing Impact Stablecoin Market?

Michael Faulkender, US Treasury Deputy Secretary, discusses President Trump signing the Genius Act into law and how big he thinks the stablecoin market will grow & how that will translate to treasury demand. Faulkender also talks about whether or not the stablecoin will create a financial stability risk and the difference between cutting interest rates in July or waiting to cut in September. Michael Faulkender speaks with Kailey Leinz and Tyler Kendall on the late edition of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power.”

President Donald Trump has personally called the editor-in-chief of The Wall Street Journal to try to get the paper to spike a story it is working on about Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein

The Trump White House is in full-blown panic mode tonight, with the ghost of Jeffrey Epstein weighing down heavily on the beleaguered president who has just had his worst week since taking office. The Wall Street Journal just released articles revealing shocking new information about the true nature of Trump’s relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and it easy to see why Trump wants ‘everything Epstein’ to just stop immediately. But this fire has only just started to burn, and when it’s done, the Trump presidency may or may not be in smouldering cinders. That’s the memo.

“Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.” Ecclesiastes 10:20 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, on Monday’s program we asked a simple question, “why is Donald Trump seeking to cover up information about Jeffrey Epstein?” On today’s program we have, if not the answer, certainly an answer. Donald Trump was very close with Jeffrey Epstein, so close that he wound up taking 7 flights on the ‘Lolita Express’. Is Jeffrey Epstein actually dead? He sure is, and he died in jail while awaiting a ‘tell-all’ trial that had the elites in a frenzy. Trump released no information about Epstein after his death was reported in 2019. Now Trump is again president 6 years later, and the ghost of Epstein is towering over Trump, and threatening to crush him. Will this all blow over by the next news cycle? Will a war be suddenly declared to divert your attention? Can Trump weather ‘Hurricane Epstein’? All this and much more on this edition of the Prophecy News Podcast.

President Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky are considering a ‘mega deal’ that would see the US buy battlefield-tested Ukrainian drones in exchange for Kyiv agreeing to buy a swath of weapons from America, the Ukrainian leader said.

It was only a few months ago when President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance invited Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House for the sole purpose of publicly humiliating him on live television. Then Trump tried to push through an untimely peace to the Russia Ukraine war by siding with Putin and forcing Zelensky to accept terms negotiated without his input. That was then, this is now, and now Trump has come back to Zelensky, tail between his legs, asking Ukraine to give America drone technology we don’t currently possess? This is not simply theater, this is the theater of the absurd in the extreme. That’s the memo.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJB)

Do you ever get tired of watching all this Deep State and New World Order nonsense? I sure do. It doesn’t fool me for a second, I have a King James Bible to show me the truth, but it does wear me out nearly to the point of exhaustion. As for Donald Trump, you have to come to one of two conclusions. Either he is just flailing about, doing whatever pops into his head at the moment no matter how crazy and contradictory it may be, or, he is taking orders from the Deep State who tagged his right ear with a warning shot last July in Butler, PA. Maybe a little of both, but I will say this much. If the idea that the United States has to come crawling to tiny, little Ukraine for drone technology we don’t have, but they do, doesn’t set off every red flag and alarm bell in your brain, there is something very, very wrong.

Trump discussing drone ‘mega deal’ with Ukraine — as US tech lags behind adversaries: ‘The people of America need this technology’

FROM THE NY POST: Speaking exclusively with The Post on Wednesday, Zelensky revealed that his latest talks with Trump focused on a breakthrough deal that would see the US and Ukraine prop up each other’s aerial technology — with Kyiv offering to share everything it’s learned about modern warfare in the three-year conflict with Russia.

The deal could be transformative for the US military and national security, with officials and drone experts warning that America’s technology lags far behind Russia and China, and American soldiers are ill-equipped to use the UAVs or defend against the types of devices being produced by adversaries.

“The people of America need this technology, and you need to have it in your arsenal,” Zelensky told The Post of Ukraine’s latest drones, which have been able to penetrate Russia’s defenses to take out heavy bombers and hit as deep as 800 miles over the border.

“I think this is really a mega deal, a win-win, as they say,” he added.

Back in February, Zelensky was Trump’s punching bag. What changed?

I feel sad for you if you think what happened in the White House was good today, it was theater, nothing more. Yes, they beat up on little Zelensky pretty good, and I have no problem with that but will they talk to PUTIN with that same level of harshness??It’s a show, people. pic.twitter.com/KTZPZAQ2cE

Drone warfare has become the standout method of battle in the Ukraine war, with Moscow and Kyiv trading hundreds of aerial blows a day using the explosives-carrying UAVs. Zelensky, who touted drones as the key tool that has allowed his country to fight back against the Russian invasion for more than three years, offered everything he’s learned while under fire to help the US and NATO prepare for the new generation of war.

“We will be ready to share this experience with America and other European partners,” he said, adding that talks were also underway with Denmark, Norway and Germany.

Experts and officials have sounded the alarm on America’s blind spot when it comes to drone technology and warfare.

“We all know the same thing. We aren’t giving the American war fighter what they need to survive warfare today,” Trent Emeneker, project manager of the Autonomy Portfolio at the military’s Defense Innovation Unit, told the New York Times.

“If we had to go to war tomorrow, do we have what we need? No,” he added.

The issues were made evident in a four-day testing camp held last month in Alaska by the defense department, which saw soldiers and private contractors repeatedly crash and fail to take down prototype drones, The Times reported. Some of the drones failed to launch altogether, and one of the drones that could fly ended up hitting the wrong target.

The potential “mega deal” also comes as US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth issued a new order to “cut red tape” on US drone production. The Pentagon memo highlighted the need for the US to keep pace as military drone production skyrockets around the world. READ MORE
