This is sort of hilarious in an odd way (OK, I have a weird sense of humor 😂) What a bunch of incompetent sociopathic wackos!

“Along with political consultant Steve Bannon, Epshteyn created a cryptocurrency called “$FJB, which officially stands for “Freedom. Jobs. Business.” but which they marketed to Trump loyalists as “F*ck Joe Biden.” By February 2023, Nikki McCann Ramirez reported in Rolling Stone that the currency had lost 95% of its value.”

Nothing says Freedom Jobs Business like campaigning *against* the guy who has created the longest string of job growth and most new small businesses in most people's lifetime, much less doing it by creating a failed scam business. Irony and self-awareness are not fascist strong suits, it appears.

P.S. Walk into a large Business and ask a low-level employee if they feel their Job is helping them attain more Freedom in their lives. Dollars to donuts, not so much!

I have a macabre sense of humor also, Dr. B and I also thought “HA! They lost a lot!”

Bannon and Epshteyn made money off of it--they undoubtedly knew it was crap and shorted it. It was the little MAGAs that bought it that lost their shirts. Just like those who bought the Trump trading cards.
