Shutdown looms as Dems reveal demands for sweeping ICE overhaul

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has planted his flag on a series of reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement that Senate Democrats are demanding in order to approve the funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security.

According to Igor Bobic of HuffPost, the core demands from the Democratic caucus articulated by Schumer are to cease roving patrols, tighten requirements for warrants, establish a unified code of conduct all federal agents involved with immigration must follow, require body cameras on agents, and ban agents from concealing their identity with masks.

Such changes would represent a huge rewrite of the bill passed by the House, and would require the House to take a highly contentious re-vote even if Senate Republicans capitulated to all these demands.

It would also almost certainly mean a partial federal government shutdown while all of these details are hammered out, as funding lapses on Friday.

President Donald Trump has tried instead to promise his administration will make internal reforms to ICE and Border Patrol policies. Schumer and the Democratic caucus have rejected this as insufficient and insist Congress must codify any reforms in law.

Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference

Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference

The post Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The suitcoiners are in town.  From a low-key, circular podium in the middle of a lavish New York City event hall, Strategy executive chairman Michael Saylor took the mic and opened the Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference event. He joked awkwardly about the orange ties, dresses, caps and other merch to the (mostly male) audience of who’s-who in the bitcoin treasury company world.  Once he got onto the regular beat, it was much of the same: calm and relaxed, speaking freely and with confidence, his keynote was heavy on the metaphors and larger historical stories. Treasury companies are like Rockefeller’s Standard Oil in its early years, Michael Saylor said: We’ve just discovered crude oil and now we’re making sense of the myriad ways in which we can use it — the automobile revolution and jet fuel is still well ahead of us.  Established, trillion-dollar companies not using AI because of “security concerns” make them slow and stupid — just like companies and individuals rejecting digital assets now make them poor and weak.  “I’d like to think that we understood our business five years ago; we didn’t.”  We went from a defensive investment into bitcoin, Saylor said, to opportunistic, to strategic, and finally transformational; “only then did we realize that we were different.” Michael Saylor: You Come Into My Financial History House?! Jokes aside, Michael Saylor is very welcome to the warm waters of our financial past. He acquitted himself honorably by invoking the British Consol — though mispronouncing it, and misdating it to the 1780s; Pelham’s consolidation of debts happened in the 1750s and perpetual government debt existed well before then — and comparing it to the gold standard and the future of bitcoin. He’s right that Strategy’s STRC product in many ways imitates the consols; irredeemable, perpetual debt, issued at par, with…
