The pro-XRP lawyer who is targeting to unseat U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has expressed concerns over government overreach and the potential threats a federally issued CBDC poses to personal financial freedom.&#34;A Hill to Die On&#34;In his interview with Generation Infinity, Deaton argues that a government-issued CBDC would give the government too much control over how people spend their money.
