Gensler is literally the slimiest politician/bureaucrat i’ve EVER seen. No way should his name tag say Honorable. Dis-Honorable is accurate💯

[fred]

Gensler and his puppet master Warren must GO !!!!

[jd]

It's Disturbing people like this work for government.

[Bonelipus]

The word WEASEL just keeps coming into my head!

[josephbennett]

This woman... IS A HERO... THIS is whatvwe need in

[adamhorton]

Well hmm, the Howie test proved XRP was not a security. But the law of the land said so but Gary still did what ever the hell he wanted, he needs to be terminated immediately!

[cipyah]

I don’t agree with most things presented by this channel, but in this we have agreement: GARY GENSLER MUST GO!

And Hester answered directly and correctly.

[ugotblazed]

ETH literally had an IPO but they get a free pass. Fire Gensler 🔥

[burgsymalone]

I hope both candidates are watching why GG is the most hated person in crypto ecosystems

[himjdh]

"... inconsistent standards..." is the UNDERSTATEMENT of this millenia...thank you!

[eeau]

Gary Gangster needs to spend time behind bars - In close proximity to very strong and over friendly inmates.

[mrmyknight]

Gensler does whatever he want with 0 consequence again and again, what a joke theusa is turning out to be

[Victor-klcy]

All talk no one doing anything about it

[bartimay]

US should be ashamed that they allowed this guy to be in charge for so long!

[lat]

I hope GG realizes the damage he has done to the Xrp holders over the last 5 years, the ones they are supposed to protect, with this narcissistic manipulation. Ripple has secured the fine of $125 m but no we have to wait till the 7 October to see if they will appeal. Sickening. Disgusted from Cape Town.

[HighlanderOne]

Gensler and Warren need put in jail for the damage they have done to

[mikejohn]

Gensler and sec should be in prison and fined for hurting

[garfieldbennett]

Gensler is just as empty-headed as the former Director of the secret service.

[chrispoe]

A Trey Gowdy famous quote, “ A perfectly good answer to a question nobody asked”. Damn Democrats.
