The CLARITY Act still doesn't have the votes. Gallego hasn't committed to a final floor vote — the fight is over an ethics provision that leaves enforcement to the DOJ alone and expires in 2029, instead of real guardrails against officials profiting off crypto. Recess is close. Tell Gallego: close the loopholes, or vote NO. Use Indivisible's call tool: https://indivisible.org/actions/stop-trumps-crypto-corruption/ or call directly. 📞 (202) 224-4521 | (480) 697-3600 #CLARITYAct #Arizona

Ethics language re: Trump's schemes in new crypto bill is weak sauce. I told @bloomberg@flipboard.com it's not clear if a good chunk of it even applies to Trump. #crypto #news #uspol #politics #trump #congress #clarityact https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-25/trump-s-crypto-bonanza-is-biggest-hurdle-for-digital-asset-bill

CounterPunch.org | AI Abundance: the Clarity Act and the Stablcoin Wars by Ellen Brown AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. As the United States nears its 250th anniversary, Congress is advancing the “Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act” (H.R. 4766), which would embed privately‑issued, dollar‑backed stablecoins into the national monetary system—promising a new market for Treasury securities and a potential boost to the dollar’s global role, but also giving issuers the power to program, freeze, or seize funds and threatening the deposit base that underpins community banks; critics argue that while stablecoins earn huge profits by converting token sales into short‑term Treasury yields (as seen with Tether’s multibillion‑dollar earnings), their “programmable” nature bypasses constitutional safeguards and could divert anywhere from tens of billions to several trillions of dollars away from traditional banks, undermining credit creation for small businesses and local economies that rely on community banks—institutions historically vital for regional growth and equitable wealth distribution—thereby turning a debate about digital tokens into a broader contest over the future of banking, financial sovereignty, and how best to fund both the federal debt and an AI‑driven economy.

Zeteo | This Bipartisan Crypto Bill Could Make Trump Family ‘Vanderbilt-Level Rich’ by Andrew Perez AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The article warns that a bipartisan cryptocurrency bill moving through Congress—known as the Clarity Act—could give the Trump family “Vanderbilt‑level” wealth by allowing light‑touch regulation of crypto, encouraging banks to trade risky digital assets, and permitting crypto firms to sell tokenized securities without the normal registration requirements; critics say the legislation offers no safeguards against Trump’s alleged crypto dealings and would let his political and business connections exploit the new regulatory framework to generate billions of dollars.

US Top News and Analysis | Robinhood's revenue slump exposes crypto's core weakness AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Robinhood’s latest earnings reveal a structural weakness in crypto: despite years of growth, its crypto‑trading revenue fell 47% in Q1, dragging the stock down 14% as prices for Bitcoin and ether slipped 22‑29% amid a broader risk‑off mood. Analysts note that crypto revenue is inherently volatile, tied to trading volume and market sentiment rather than real‑world economic activity, and warn that without a price‑driven rebound the trend could persist. To offset this instability, Robinhood—like rivals such as Coinbase and Gemini—is pushing diversification into subscriptions, interest income, prediction markets and tokenized assets, leveraging its Bitstamp acquisition for institutional exposure. CEO Vlad Tenev stressed a shift toward “crypto infrastructure” applied to assets with real‑world utility, arguing that tokenization could drive a future “supercycle.” Nonetheless, growth is slowing and competition is intensifying, leaving the company’s earnings outlook dependent on both market recovery and successful expansion beyond speculative trading.
