The Bank Secrecy Act, under which he was charged, is of extremely dubious constitutionality (https://www.coincenter.org/broad-ambiguous-or-delegated-constitutional-infirmities-of-the-bank-secrecy-act/ https://www.coincenter.org/broad-ambiguous-or-delegated-cons...), and it certainly violates the spirit of the Bill of Rights.

- kemitchell 3y agoMore than 200 years of Supreme Court decisions show there's no one "the spirit" of the constitution we can consult via Ouija Board on Capitol Hill. There are many, and they often disagree. Fortunately, we have institutions where they can duke it out. And where we can fight about what the decisions mean.
