Ex-White House communications director says 60 Senate votes virtually impossible, CLARITY Act momentum fades
Anthony Scaramucci, a former White House communications director and founder of SkyBridge, said the U.S. cryptocurrency regulation bill known as the CLARITY Act is unlikely to make progress in the Senate. He said President Donald Trump’s political choices have weakened bipartisan momentum. Scaramucci cited Trump’s meme coin launch, pressure over Greenland and U.S. military operations involving Iran. He also said securing 60 votes to overcome a filibuster is nearly impossible.
