UPDATE ON OPUS: SEC Head Gensler Goes “Radio Silent” To Fox News On Ripple/SEC Story
• November 17, 2021 8:43 pm • CommentsMembers of the XRP Army know all about the SEC’s lawsuit against Ripple, infamously filed on December 22, 2020.
But the rest of America?
They’ve probably never heard of it, and that’s because the Mainstream Media — including the financial media — has absolutely refused to cover it.
Media blackout.
In fact, that kind of deliberate bias is one reason we started this site: to tell the truth.
To get out stories that no one else will cover.
And now finally we’re getting some support.
Charles Gasparino and Eleanor Terrett, both from Fox News, have recently picked up on the story and it looks like they know they hooked a big one.
You can smell when you’re on to something big and one dead giveaway is when the subject of the story refuses to even return your calls.
That’s what Eleanor Terrett just reported.
After working up what Gasparino and Terrett are calling their [magnum] Opus, they sent an advance draft to SEC Chair Gary Gensler for his comment, and Terrett reports Gensler and the entire SEC suddenly went “radio silent”:
Update on our efforts to reach out to @GaryGensler and the @SECGov: A press spokesperson was responsive at first but when we sent them a draft of our #RipplevsSEC opus for comment, they went radio silent. Have sent several follow-up emails since last week and haven’t heard back.

Hey Gary, isn’t your job to protect investors?
Isn’t your job to listen to investors?
Isn’t your job to take basic questions from the Media, especially when 60,000 of those Americans are currently suing you?
Garrrrrry?
Garrrrrry….are you there?
NICE! https://t.co/bsSRTucGem pic.twitter.com/k3GM1rlCtx

Things are not going well for Gensler online, with hundreds, if not thousands, of Tweets just like this one being fired at Gensler on a daily basis:
See that big USA 🇺🇲 Flag above your head @GaryGensler. Please Listen to the the American people. It's literally your job. https://t.co/CPl3VXZAXR pic.twitter.com/CpO1l9ltke

John Deaton sums it up in one sentence: No Comment says it all.
He’s right.
“No comment” says it all

Deaton is the attorney who is now suing the SEC in a class action lawsuit on behalf of 60,000 (and growing!) XRP holders.
More information here on how you can join the suit.
XRP The Standard Productions always has a hilarious take on the situation:

But now let’s dig in a little deeper, because this is a serious matter.
I have a feeling Gasparino and Terrett’s “Opus” just might feature this clip:
Does anyone really know that Ethereum is decentralized without an audit of Consensys, The Ethereum Foundation, etc. Who are those whales that wanted to hide their identities? @PatrickMcHenry @GaryGensler @ethereumJoseph @bgarlinghouse @Ripple @JohnEDeaton1 @CGasparino RETWEET pic.twitter.com/y5W741ZjuP

Garrrrrry?
Why did ETH get a free pass Garrrrry?
And here’s more….
Deaton put together a brilliant tweet thread laying it all out….
Where is the Media on this?
This should be front page news:

Instead, Clayton chose to go on air with @andrewrsorkin @BeckyQuick and @JoeSquawk. Andrew offered up a 🥎 question and asked Clayton if he wanted to address the serious conflicts of interests and gross appearances of impropriety that have been alleged against him.

I encourage everyone to review the clip from CNBC in order to witness the look on Andrew, Becky and Joe’s face along with the awkward silence. These 3 respected journalists offered no follow-up questioning. Maybe all 3 were dumbfounded considering they all knew he was lying.

Clayton must’ve forgot about his long meeting on October 23, 2017 with the COO of Apollo Group, along with Apollo Group’s Managing Director of Credit, Chief Legal Officer, and General Counsel.
Maybe Clayton refuses to speak with Gasparino because he might ask a question. pic.twitter.com/zBkvmLFlQR
