Trump agrees to 80% of the bipartisan ethics provisions, and the Clarity Act suddenly looks possible
If you’ve been listening to me over the past few months, you know that I thought the Clarity Act had an extremely low chance of passing, and it was specifically because of ethics. Well, I could be wrong. Trump agrees to new bipartisan ethics provision in massive crypto bill, Republican senators say. What they’re saying is that he has agreed to 80% of the Tillis-Gallego ethics proposal, which was floated by his own party. He’s conceding a lot here. Covered officials, judges, and spouses would be restricted from issuing or sponsoring digital assets for compensation. So this really does prohibit a lot of crypto activity by politicians. Notably, it does not include the kids. Now, who do you think is making money in the Trump family? But listen, we’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that that doesn’t need to extend that far.
