Charles Hoskinson Slams Ripple’s Chris Larsen
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson reacted to an X post by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. raising concern about the current political climate. RFK Jr slammed Kamala Harris for making a “fascism” comment about Donald Trump while in reality Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration pushed ahead the DoD Directive 5240.01.
“DoD Directive 5240.01 giving the Pentagon power — for the first time in history — to use lethal force to kill Americans on U.S. soil who protest government policies. If you want to understand a politician, the words from her mouth have little relevance, said RFK Jr.
Hoskinson stressed this it is a “betrayal of the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878,” slamming the administration for pushing ahead with the directive targeting Americans.
He also slammed Chris Larsen for donating $11.8 million to Democrats. Crypto is still fighting for regulatory investigation, and using it for political context can add complexity to its decentralized and neutral ethos.
