This tweet appears to be about maintaining US dollar supremacy/control, especially in the sense of maintaining status of the world's transactions in US dollars and the force of US Sanctions. [Also see current temporary crash in precious metals and cryptocurrencies]

One can see why relying on CHIPS for settling international payments could be a source of discomfort for countries having a troubled relationship with the United States. Washington could prohibit U.S. banks from using CHIPS to transfer funds to banks of the foreign country in question. CHIPS could be required by U.S. law to enforce the ban. Because CHIPS and its foreign counterparts, such as the Clearing House Automated Payment System (CHAPS) in the United Kingdom and its equivalents in the euro area, actually move money between accounts of entities headquartered in different countries, finding a way around these clearinghouses is more difficult than finding a way around SWIFT.

More subtly, the fact that payments executed through CHIPS are denominated in dollars may help sustain the dollar’s role as a dominant vehicle for cross-border transactions and hinder efforts by other governments to internationalize their currencies. Through its convenience and scope, CHIPS encourages use of the dollar, while ubiquity of the dollar in cross-border transactions encourages reliance on CHIPS, thereby bolstering the lock-in effects emphasized by scholars of “dollar dominance” (Gopinath and Stein 2021).

And because it's non-government entity for financial transaction, CHIPS is probably very useful to hide illegal activities, money laundering, drug/trafficking, illegal weapons sales, etc

The "R" is missing.

There are several text and visual markers that refer to the number "2":

There are two circles

$35 x 2 = $70

1 car emoji on the left is transformed to 2 cars on the right.

1 missing R should be transformed to 2 missing R's.

The "R" is missing/gone = RR is missing/gone

Rosenstein joined King & Spalding January 2020, a white-shoe international law firm best known for "advising Donald Trump's real estate empire." He works primarily in assisting with federal investigations.

Rosenstein was the subject of a song by Ben Folds called "Mr Peepers", a reference to the supposed nickname given to him by President Trump. Glasses, peepers, another reference to RR?

What do you mean bogus?

This sounds like a very weak FF attempt for a gun grab, intended to show how people shouldn't have guns because they will take the law into their own hands. The thing about child molestation and Lil' Kidz Kastle seems to target a specific audience for a SETUP.
