DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

The February 17 post from @OldeWorldOrder compared the two politicians and gained over 11,000 likes, sparking talks on race, assimilation, and U.S. Census categories. The Census treats Hispanic or Latino as an ethnicity separate from race, a system from the 1970s that lets people pick both; in 2020, just 20% of Hispanics chose white alone, down from 53% in 2010, with many selecting 'some other race.' Voices like James Surowiecki suggested classifying Latinos as white like past Sicilian or Greek immigrants, while others pointed to gang member photos or genetic diversity among Latinos from European-descended Cubans to Indigenous Mexicans, highlighting how national identities often matter more than a broad 'Latino' label.

Key Takeaway

A post pitting Sen. Marco Rubio against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez asked if 'our Latino is better than their Latino' — and it quickly drew replies challenging whether Latinos like Rubio even qualify as non-white.
