Trump's Crypto Corruption Under Fire at Senate Forum
A public forum on Trump's alleged crypto corruption is set to take place next Monday afternoon. The event, titled 'Trump's Crypto Corruption,' will be held in the G-50 Dirksen Senate Office Building and will feature testimony from several experts.
The forum is being organized by U.S. Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), who have criticized Trump for allegedly using his crypto schemes to enrich himself while in office.
According to the senators, Trump's actions have 'supercharged foreign influence and bribery of the White House' and weakened systems designed to protect Americans' savings.
The forum will feature testimony from several experts, including Ben McKenzie, author and filmmaker; Lori Flowers, a pharmaceutical account executive who has experience with cryptocurrency scams; John Reed Stark, former Chief of the SEC's Office of Internet Enforcement; Virginia Canter, Chief Counsel for Ethics and Anticorruption at Democracy Defenders Action; and Scott Greytak, Deputy Executive Director of Transparency International U.S.
