Why in the world would Mike Huckabee meet with traitor Jonathan Pollard in the US Embassy in Jerusalem? Why would he keep it off his calendar? Didn't Pollard call POTUS "a madman?" Clean up your act, Huckabee. Or resign NOW. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/w...

Why would Mike Huckabee hold an off-the-books meeting with traitor Jonathan Pollard at the U.S. Embassy? This is an outrageous diplomatic lapse, and Huckabee should resign or be fired!

This week I guest lectured for the fourth time for Sheree Ip's class at Curtin University #Law 🤓
We walked through the #TornadoCash smart contract, discussing its ability to protect #privacy of transactions.
What's your take? Should #crypto mixers like Tornado Cash and #SamouraiWallet be banned?
