ODDS OF CLARITY ACT PASSING JUMP TO 69% AS SCHUMER IS “VERY DESPERATE” TO CUT A DEAL Sander Lutz reports Senate Democrats wrapped a closed door meeting today on the crypto market structure bill. Chuck Schumer is said to be pushing hard after Fairshake unveiled a $193M midterms war chest, per a Senate source. But pro crypto Dems still draw a red line on outlawing Trump’s crypto ventures, and the White House is unlikely to budge. That’s assuming banks and Coinbase even reach a deal on stablecoin yield this month. Still, betting markets continue to price in higher odds that the bill gets over the line. image
ESPTEIN EMAIL CLAIMS THE GOLD IN FT. KNOX IS COMPLETELY MISSING An email from the Epstein files cites a report allegedly prepared for Vladimir Putin by Russia’s Federal Security Service claims former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn uncovered evidence that U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox were “missing or unaccounted for.” According to the report, Strauss-Kahn grew concerned after the U.S. allegedly stalled delivery of 191.3 tons of gold owed to the IMF under a 1978 agreement to fund SDRs. It further alleges that after raising concerns with officials tied to Barack Obama, Strauss-Kahn was shown evidence by “rogue elements” within the Central Intelligence Agency that the gold was gone. Strauss-Kahn was later charged and jailed in the US for sex crimes on May 14th after his discovery about Ft. Knox.
