"Within hours of this conversation the SBA issued guidance "clarifying that the 8(a) Program is open to job creators of every race consistent withcourt ordersnotices from the U.S Department of Justice (DOJ) and President Trumps broader effort to eliminate DEI across the federal government and that any race-based presumptions of social disadvantage have been inoperative since 2023." "The SBA is ending DEI in federal contracting and our programs will remain open to all eligible job creators in compliance with federal law" Admin Loeffler said. Of note: SBA suspended [----] of the [----] total 8(a)"

"The 8(a) program is a textbook example of bureaucratic fraud and racial favoritism. Under Biden it ballooned to $78B in no-bid contracts with SBAs own audit exposing front companies like ATI Government Solutions outsourcing 80% of $100M+ deals to giants like Accenture. The social disadvantage presumption isnt just unconstitutionalits a scam. Revier Technologys lawsuit proves white-owned firms get blocked from Treasurys investment programs solely for being white while SBAs [----] audit found [----] participants gaming the system. DEI-based contracting isnt equityits legalized theft. Crushing this"

"🚨 Whale selling pressure on Binance is collapsing. Whale inflows to exchanges have dropped from around $7.8B to nearly $2.7B. This means large holders are sending far less Bitcoin to exchanges. When whales stop moving coins to exchanges it usually means selling pressure is fading. Instead of preparing to sell they are choosing to hold and wait. That is a major shift in market behavior. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2013869209345040672 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2013869209345040672"
