Rogan Questions Trump Family's 'Weird Business Deals' in Crypto Industry
Podcaster Joe Rogan has criticized President Donald Trump's family for their 'weird business deals' involving cryptocurrency. Speaking on his show The Joe Rogan Experience, he suggested that investigators could dig in and start arresting people over the $1.4 billion crypto haul tied to Trump's ventures.
Rogan pointed out that Trump's sons are involved in unusual business arrangements, and the amount of money moving through those ventures warrants law enforcement scrutiny. He did not specify which agency or person he believes should investigate nor cite a specific law that has been violated.
The Trump administration has positioned itself as a major promoter of digital assets since returning to office. The president has backed policies aimed at making the U.S. a global cryptocurrency hub, including support for the GENIUS Act. Financial disclosures show roughly $1.4 billion in profits tied to Trump's crypto ventures.
The overlap between Trump's regulatory influence over cryptocurrency and his family's financial interests has drawn scrutiny throughout his presidency. An Associated Press analysis found that crypto ventures account for a substantial portion of the Trump Organization's estimated $2.9 billion net worth, with digital assets making up nearly 40 percent of that total.
