We’re starting today with news of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine (again). Next, President Biden signed an executive order yesterday that will be an early step in regulating how cryptocurrency is traded, and the Senate voted 79-19 earlier this week to pass a $107 billion dollar plan to overhaul the US Post Office. Finally, the Idaho state house passed a law that makes it illegal to provide gender affirming care to trans teens, and makes doing so a felony with a life sentence.
