  10. If the debt ceiling compromise bill goes down because of the giveaways and corruption attached to it; then Biden and Yellen will have no choice but to #mintthecoin unless they can persuade the fantastically corrupt #SCOTUS to provide a clear ruling on the 14th amendment hack within the week.

  11. reminder that #Biden did NOT have to do this deal, he could have used the 14th amendment or #MintTheCoin. He chose this horrible deal.

  12. sorry everyone who lost your Medicaid benefits, you should have voted harder. #MintTheCoin

  19. CW: Long thread/9

    Of course, there are lots of other possibilities: Biden could issue an #ExecutiveOrder to the effect that the Debt Ceiling violates the #14thAmendment. Or that it violates the #ContractsClause. Or he could order the Treasury to start issuing #CouponFreeBonds. Or he could just #MintTheCoin:

    Yes, each of these would end up in front of the (degraded, corrupt, illegitimate, partisan) Supreme Court, who would very likely strike them down.

  23. #MintTheCoin (apparently the Treasury/Fed can't figure out how to sell high interest or interest only premium bonds. So this is the solution

  24. Good morning everyone! Who wants to start the day with a deep dive into monetary policy and 31 USC 5112(k) and how it can be used to avoid separation of powers litigation🥳 🥳

    OK maybe not selling it there. But nevertheless, here we go...

    #MintTheCoin.

    How to do it. How it works. And why the President's 14th Amendment Plan to beat the #debtceiling is the wrong tool for the job.
