The Creature from Jekyll Island has fully co-opted federal and state governments. The powers-that-be want nothing more than to lord over you, the citizens, with their power. And yet, there are some in government who are not narcissistic sociopaths. They seek to make real change for the people who vote for them. Imagine that. Today we welcome Maine State Senator Eric Brakey to the show to discuss the war in Ukraine, the current banking crisis and how he is working to represent the people by keeping up to date with the world of crypto. We promise that it won’t be an Achy Breaky show. Just a little Brakey.  This is episode #676 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Hey ChatGPT, what are five interesting facts about the state of Texas?  Size and population: Texas is the second-largest state in the United States, both in terms of area and population. As of the last census, the population of Texas was around 29 million, making it the second-most populous state in the U.S. after California. Six flags over Texas: The phrase "six flags over Texas" refers to the six different nations that have ruled over the region throughout its history.  Texas has a booming economy, ranking as the 9th largest in the world if it were a separate country.  The Alamo, located in San Antonio, is one of the most famous landmarks in Texas and the site of a pivotal battle during the Texas Revolution.  The Texas State Capitol in Austin, completed in 1888, is the largest state capitol building in the United States. It is even taller than the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.  But that’s enough about Texas. Pardon our dyslexic moment, but this show is about TAXES.  Today we welcome Crypto Tax CPA Clinton Donnelly back to the show to discuss two major happenings that everyone should be aware of as it relates to your taxes.
