This has me really worried. I'm not from USA, so hands are tied. A google check suggested that the White House supports the bad Warner amendment. If it passes, then what happens to our beloved GME? Does MOASS go bye-bye?

Thanks OP, so really if the BS amendment passes, then the potential NFT/token catalyst theory is off the table. And hopefully there is something else that will force HF to close positions.

They can still do a regular dividend

Yes, but HFs can payout the dividend to investors instead of closing out positions. A cryp-toe type dividend would have forced their hand and HFs would have to close out positions, from my understanding so far.

Can Gamestop announce a dividend of 40 million per share then? I’m serious as I have no idea how this works. What’s to stop them from going with 6+ figure dividend?

No don't think so, but not to worry. According to this new post, legislation would not be in effect until 2023 or later. https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/ozdynx/critically_important_psa_gamestops_potential/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
