A Valentine's Day report revealed a Donald Trump "confidant" and appointee to have had deep ties with Jeffrey Epstein, and one line from the report appears to suggest there could be more texts between the president's ally and Jeffrey Epstein, formerly a close friend to Trump, to be unveiled.

CBS reported on the newly unearthed emails between Epstein and Thomas Barrack, who is now serving as U.S. ambassador to Turkey and special envoy to Syria. It didn't take long for those online to suggest that Barrack "resign or be fired."

The report specifically notes that Epstein thought he could use Barrack to pass messages back and forth to Trump himself, but states that the public emails don't show Barrack did pass any messages on. That said, there's a line that left readers wondering what else might pop up in the future.

Specifically, CBS noted that the emails show Epstein pushing Barrack to move to a secure form of messaging, and highlights the fact that, if that did happen, we wouldn't have access to those communications.

According to the outlet, the emails "show Epstein repeatedly encouraged Barrack to move communications to encrypted messaging apps, records of which are not part of the government release."

Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!”

Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!”

The post Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!” appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, stated that there should be uniform cryptocurrency regulation in the country. At this point, Coinbase sent a letter to the US Department of Justice requesting that federal regulators prevent state regulations from conflicting with national crypto policies and ensure uniform regulatory clarity. Coinbase’s request comes after the state of Oregon filed a lawsuit against Coinbase for unregistered securities, despite the SEC withdrawing its lawsuit against the cryptocurrency exchange. Coinbase states that although the country’s top regulator, the SEC, withdrew its lawsuit, states are filing lawsuits in defiance of the SEC’s decision. In the letter, addressed by Coinbase Legal Counsel Paul Grewal, he stated: “Despite the Trump administration’s positive regulatory efforts, crypto companies are being negatively impacted by states’ flawed interpretations of securities laws and their divergent actions. If Oregon can sue us for services that are legal under federal law, we have a problem. It has long been clear that the current patchwork of state laws is not only inefficient, but also slows innovation and harms consumers. At this point, the Justice Department should take steps to address the pressing issues by calling on Congress to step in and enact comprehensive and uniform regulations.” Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield filed a lawsuit against Coinbase last April, alleging that Coinbase was promoting the sale of unregistered cryptocurrencies to individuals in Oregon. *This is not investment advice.
