Crypto for Conflict: A Proposal to Restrict Digital Assets to Wartime Use

Many have spoken about the need for American leadership in technology and the potential of digital assets. Vice President Vance has a point about paying attention to what global competitors like China are doing in the crypto space. However, the current conversation around cryptocurrency for everyday infrastructure and investment is a distraction from its most strategic and vital use case: national security.

Instead of trying to fit this technology into a peacetime financial system, we should be harnessing its power for when we need it most. I propose we treat the infrastructure of cryptocurrency like a strategic military asset, to be deployed only in times of war, much like war bonds. This isn’t about the coins themselves, but about the underlying technology and ASICs – a decentralized, resilient network that can be activated by the military upon a formal declaration of war.

This approach addresses the national security risks of unregulated crypto, while giving the U.S. a powerful economic and strategic tool in a time of conflict. It’s not about stifling innovation; it’s about focusing that innovation where it can have the most decisive impact for our nation.

Proposed Legislation: The Wartime Digital Asset Act

A BILL

To restrict the use of cryptocurrencies and stablecoins to times of declared war, and for other purposes.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the “Wartime Digital Asset Act”.

While Politicians Play Games, Cryptocurrency Threatens Our Financial Future

Our nation faces a profound and immediate threat from a predatory, globalist financial scheme. This is the real crisis. I am talking about cryptocurrency. My opposition is not rooted in partisan politics, but in a firm belief that we must protect the United States from this clear and present danger.

These digital tokens, propped up by nothing more than speculation and hype, are a cancer on our financial system. They are the preferred tool for illicit activity, riddled with fraud, and often mined in countries hostile to American interests. The chaos unleashed by figures like Sam Bankman-Fried, whose FTX exchange imploded in a storm of corruption and foreign entanglements, is not an outlier—it is the inevitable outcome of a system with no intrinsic value. So-called “stablecoins” are a ticking time bomb, and the entire ecosystem is a playground for market manipulation that puts the savings of everyday Americans at risk.

This is the fire that needs to be extinguished. Yet, what is the response from Washington? Political theater.

Case in point: H.R. 3573, cynically titled the “Stop TRUMP in Crypto Act.” This bill is a perfect illustration of a political establishment that is unable and unwilling to grasp the scale of the threat. It is a weak, performative gesture that tinkers around the edges of ethics for the political elite while completely ignoring the fundamental dangers that cryptocurrencies pose to the financial stability of our country.

The California Insurrection: A Planned Betrayal

The chaos that erupted in Los Angeles is no spontaneous uprising; it is a meticulously planned and ongoing insurrection fueled by a toxic alliance of foreign enemies and domestic traitors. The betrayal runs from the streets to the highest offices of the state. It’s a conspiracy where federal taxpayer money is funneled to the very groups organizing the insurrection. This support was made explicit on August 30, 2024, when Mayor Karen Bass’s office announced she had secured major federal support for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), creating a direct pipeline from the U.S. government to a key organizer of the insurrection. CHIRLA’s own action fund listed her as a supporter of the DREAM Act in late 2017.

At the heart of the violence is the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a disciplined Marxist cadre providing the ideological framework for the insurrection; they actively engage in propaganda efforts that mirror Chinese state media, defending the CCP’s actions in Hong Kong and its internal policies. The PSL’s connection to this insurrection is not incidental; they are the ideological core, providing the anti-American framework and organizational discipline for the insurrection you see on the streets.

A Tale of Two Futures: Mamdani’s “New York Dollar” Doctrine vs. U.S. Dollar Prosperity

This is not a debate over minor policy tweaks; it is a battle for the soul of New York City. One path is built on the sound foundation of the U.S. Dollar and the prosperity that comes from private innovation and individual liberty. The other is the Mamdani Doctrine, a vision of state control so fiscally reckless it would effectively require abandoning the U.S. monetary system for its own “New York Dollar.” Below is a direct comparison.

On Public Transportation & Mobility: The vision of U.S. Dollar Prosperity is to Abolish and Replace: The MTA is terminated. All public transit is replaced by a competitive, efficient, privately-operated network of autonomous “Robotaxis.” In stark contrast, the Mamdani Doctrine‘s vision is to Expand and Subsidize: The MTA is a public good to be massively funded. But this vision collides with a simple, brutal reality: it must be paid for in U.S. dollars. With the national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the Doctrine’s demand for perpetual billions is a demand that the rest of America pay through a crushing inflationary burden. This is the first clue that the plan is incompatible with the U.S. monetary union.

Critique of “Portland residents beg Antifa not to destroy property during anti-ICE riots”
The article by Hayden Cunningham, while capturing the correct sentiment of residents’ fear, is a deeply flawed piece of journalism that mischaracterizes the situation in Portland and fails in its basic reporting duties.

1. Misleading Terminology Minimizes Violence

The article consistently uses passive and misleading language that downplays the severity of the events.
- It refers to “ongoing protests” and “anti-ICE activists” when the situation is more accurately described as a series of organized riots and attacks on federal property.
- These are not peaceful “demonstrators” but masked agitators who have engaged in violence against more than just law enforcement. Reports from Portland have described rioters using commercial-grade fireworks as weapons, committing arson, and assaulting officers. There are also accounts of Antifa attacking civilians, Christian prayer groups, and destroying private businesses, none of which is detailed in the article.
- Calling the events “clashes” and “confrontations” fails to capture the reality of the targeted violence.

The “Big Beautiful” Bonus for Our Border Agents: A $5.25 Billion State Accountability Plan

A new proposal outlines a plan to deliver a $50,000 bonus to every agent, soldier, and officer on the front lines of the border crisis, paid out over three years. By holding specific states financially accountable, the plan aims to create a powerful incentive for cooperation in federal immigration enforcement and ensure reimbursement for the costs incurred by the nation as a whole.

The total cost, estimated at $5.25 billion, would be funded entirely by the ten states with the largest populations of unauthorized immigrants: California, Texas, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, North Carolina, Georgia, Washington, and Arizona. The other 40 states would be explicitly exempt from this financial obligation.

This plan recognizes the immense contributions of approximately 105,000 individuals across the key agencies that have shouldered the burden of the crisis.

Justice KBJ: Anti-DEI, Pro-Religious Freedom, Defender of Jan. 6 Rioters … or Not?
As I’ve been telling people since she was confirmed—and I have witnesses—Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s record is revealing a judicial philosophy with surprising MAGA elements. Here are a few of her rulings that prove it:
- Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services (2025): Marlean Ames, a straight woman, alleged her supervisor, a lesbian, discriminated against her by favoring LGBTQ+ employees. The case centered on whether plaintiffs from majority groups had to meet a higher legal standard—showing “background circumstances” of discrimination—to bring a lawsuit. Writing for a unanimous Court, Justice Jackson ruled that Title VII forbids such a two-tiered system. The decision eliminated the “background circumstances” test, ensuring all individuals face the same evidentiary standard when alleging workplace discrimination.
- Catholic Charities Bureau v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission (2025): The Court unanimously sided with Catholic Charities against the state of Wisconsin, which had denied the organization a religious-employer exemption from unemployment taxes. Wisconsin argued the charity wasn’t “operated primarily for religious purposes” because it served all people, not just Catholics, and didn’t proselytize. The Court held that the state’s position violated the First Amendment by imposing a “denominational preference” and attempting to define what constitutes a valid religious activity, which the government is forbidden from doing.
- Fischer v. United States (2024): This case questioned whether a felony obstruction charge, originally passed to prevent evidence tampering, could be broadly applied to defendants from the January 6 Capitol riot. Justice Jackson joined the conservative majority in a 6-3 decision that found prosecutors had interpreted the law too broadly. The Court ruled the law is limited to acts that impair the integrity of evidence, not any conduct that disrupts an official proceeding. This significantly narrowed the application of a key felony charge in Jan. 6 prosecutions.
- CFPB v. Community Financial Services Association (2024): Her opinion, while far from perfect in my opinion, was a strong defense of judicial restraint, arguing that courts have no power to overrule Congress on funding matters unless the Constitution is explicitly and unambiguously violated. This reasoning champions a limited role for the judiciary, a core principle of legal conservatism.
