Well, butter my biscuit and call me Satoshi, the crypto political circus is in full swing! Crypto Super PACs have dropped a cool $1.3 million on House candidates like they’re bidding on a rare Bored Ape.
Fairshake, the PAC with more money than sense (apparently), is showering Democrats with love (read: cash), while Defend American Jobs is backing up the GOP wagon. Because nothing says “fiscal responsibility” like throwing crypto at politicians. 🤷♀️
According to some juicy Oct. 17 filings (because who doesn’t love reading FEC documents?), two major crypto Super PACs—Fairshake and Defend American Jobs—are playing both sides of the political fence. They’re spending big bucks on both Democratic and Republican candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives, because, why choose sides when you can just hedge? 🤷♂️
The Fairshake PAC, which is apparently trying to sound noble but instead evokes images of a questionable smoothie shop, has dropped over $900,000 to boost Democratic Rep. Thomas Suozzi in New York and another $60,000 on Rep. Yadira Caraveo in Colorado. Defend American Jobs, Fairshake’s not-so-secret Republican cousin, threw $107,000 each at GOP Reps. French Hill (the guy gunning for full control of the Financial Service Committee), Andy Barr, and Bill Huizenga. All of this is to make sure the candidates you’ve probably never heard of have enough money to blitz you with attack ads. 🎯
It’s a crypto-eat-crypto world out there, folks. Millions of dollars are flowing into the election, all while the average person is trying to figure out if their shitcoins are going to zero. Is this the future of democracy we envisioned? One where politicians are bought and paid for with magic internet money? 🔮
This election is shaping up to be a real doozy. Will crypto become the new kingmaker? Will we see a Bitcoin-standard government? Will Shiba Inu become legal tender? Okay, maybe not that last one. But at this point, anything seems possible. 🚀
Do you think we should vote for President like they are on American Idol?

Phone lines are open for 30 minutes after the last debate and the winner will be known right away!..
Seems pretty efficient and fair to me.

It’s looking like this election is a stress test for democracy. Can it withstand the influx of crypto cash? Or will we all end up holding the bag? 💰 Stay tuned, folks. This is gonna be a wild ride. 🎢
