Trump Family's Crypto 'Conflicts Of Interest' Are Coming In The Way Of Law Meant To Regulate Digital Assets, Says Gregory Meeks
- On Friday, The New York Times revealed that He Tianying, a Chinese business leader connected to a Communist Party-affiliated advisory group, obtained exclusive entry to a cryptocurrency event hosted by Trump as well as a guided tour inside the White House.
- This event followed arrangements by Trump’s business partners to sell memecoin access, drawing criticism over conflicts of interest and weak background checks amid concerns about Chinese influence.
- Democrats, Republicans, and government watchdogs criticized the dinner for blurring the line between Trump’s political role and personal profit, while a senior White House official called the incident "unfortunate."

- This controversy contributes to political tension that complicates the House Financial Services Committee’s efforts to pass the 236-page Digital Asset Market Clarity Act amid partisan debate over crypto regulation and Trump’s crypto ties.
