Trump: "Is running a crypto scam where he can receive $Ms of anonymously -DOJ: shut down the #crypto investigations unit.

Truly no #corruption scheme like this in our history at least out of the WH."
-T Miller

DOJ on Mon: disbanding a unit dedicated to crypto-related investigations. US Dep AG Blanche: “The DOJ isn't a digital assets regulator. However, the prior Admin used the DOJ to pursue a reckless strategy of reg by prosecution.”

Fortune · Justice Department scraps crypto unit as Trump further loosens oversight of digital assetsBy Ben Weiss

after 5 weeks of emailing, ringing, and absolute tripe i finally have a refund for my meta ray-bans (issued, amusingly, part-wise, 5 separate partial refunds)

after my experiences i would strongly advise against buying glasses from their website. they did not fit and shipped the wrong colour. the fitting issue would have been apparent if there was anywhere near me to try them on, but there wasn't and i decided to chance it. learn from my mistake!

they do not do easy returns on optical goods - they claim it all over the website but when you pick a prescription lens all those claims vanish but no warning is given.

the people i dealt with were lovely but the system is clearly very screwed. it's clear that wearables have a LONG way to go in terms of supporting a range of head sizes.

222) #TrumpMedia is a dreadful business with an astonishingly high stock price for a company that is barely a business. #WarrenBuffet would shudder at the absence of investable fundamentals

What is interesting though are the gyrations of the price. The stock is a proxy for the probability of #Trump electoral success. It has not been performing well of late
