Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus ("Shibetoshi Nakamoto") took to social media to attack the Department of Justice (DOJ) for its actions against Donald Trump and Elon Musk, calling them authoritarian regimes. He accused the Biden administration of using judicial resources against political opponents, stressing that this practice is an abuse of power. Markus also responded to Vice President Kamala Harris' remarks about Trump weaponizing the Justice Department, saying that the current administration is already implementing similar tactics. In addition, he defended Musk, arguing that the media's negative narrative of him distorted public perception. Meanwhile, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson also criticized Harris' remarks comparing Trump to historical dictators, calling the analogy inappropriate.
