What law are they breaking?
- johnnyanmac 2y agoIANAL, but at a glance: U.S. Code § 1924 - Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material U.S. Code § 371 - Obstructing or Impairing Legitimate Government Activity Executive Order 14117 of February 28, 2024, “Preventing Access to Americans' Bulk Sensitive Personal Data and United States Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern” (“the Order”) (though this may be rescinded by Trump) If any of those BS Crypto plans[0] have any weight to them That's a straight out constitutional overstep Article I, Section 8, Clause 5: "The Congress shall have Power . . . to coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures; . . ." I'm probably only scratching the surface here. I'm not surprised if there's a dozen other laws with legal ledger around this. You don't want any one man messing with the economy.
