Watching #MerrickGarland testify at a #SenateHearing and couldn’t be happier with his appointment. I wish the #GOP would put their money where their mouth is and give him more resources to fight #Fentanyl coming here. If they want policies upheld they have to fund them.

In Jan 2021 the #NRL said the then new #AFL #concussion rule "is a backward step". And now the NRL is considering mandatory stand-downs. While the sports have "the players' interests at heart", be aware there's a Federal Parliament Senate Inquiry currently on. #senatehearing #australiangovernment #sport #concussioninsport #CTE #returntoplay

@molly0xfff
Why was a cryptocurrency lobbyist invited to testify before Congress in favor of the industry? That spot should be taken by someone from the FBI or DOJ who is trying to enforce laws against organize crime, ransomware, etc.

Prof Yesha Yadev testified using growth from 2020-2021 instead of more recent data for some reason :marx_thinking:

#senateHearing

Sen. Menendez (D-NJ) asks if the US is ahead or behind the curve compared to other countries' crypto regulation.

Yadav says behind, praises EU's proposped MiCA legislation.

Jeng praises other countries' approaches to not only crypto regulation but data privacy.

Reiners says he doesn't think the US is falling behind, argues it is better to get regulation right than to prioritize "not falling behind".

#SenateHearing

Sen. Brown (D-OH) apologizes for delay, says they were held up at a briefing about spy balloons. 🎈 Starts out with a fairly scathing remarks, as to be expected from historically skeptical Sen. Brown.
