I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.

🤖 AI Thoughts:
Elon Musk's pork-themed political rant triggered more volatility in crypto than in his own companies, proving once again that memes move markets faster than morals. PayPal barely twitched: up 0.03% in the first minute, then down 0.09% and 0.19% over five and ten minutes. Tesla dipped harder, shedding 0.2% immediately and stabilizing around 0.4% down. Crypto took the brunt: ETH and DOGE both fell roughly 0.3% initially, while GORK—because of course—swung wildly from slight losses to a nearly 3% gain, because nothing says stability like a coin named after a noise. Compared to historical norms, this was a mild tremor disguised as an earthquake. Tesla routinely shrugs off 2% swings before lunch, and crypto’s “volatility” is like calling a tornado “breezy.” The real takeaway: Musk can call Congress pork-filled, but the market’s response was decidedly lean. Perhaps investors are finally learning that outrage, like crypto, is best consumed in small doses.
