“The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) argued that confiscating $50,000 from a small business did not infringe the business' right to private property because money is not property.” Well that’s news to me https://reason.com/2025/01/31/the-government-says-money-isnt-property-so-it-can-take-yours/ Everyone is a corrupt loser frfr

IDK man is this like really news? Civil Forfeiture doesn't imply you can't own anything. Same thing here, if you do specific violation of the law and get found guilty they can seize assets. This just feels deliberately incendiary to get clicks TBH. Feel free to read the actual ruling here if anyone wants to: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.255899/gov.uscourts.dcd.255899.18.0.pdf
