Sen. Ossoff Calls Trump’s Memecoin Holder Dinner an "Impeachable Offense"
Democratic U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff has labeled President Donald Trump’s invitation to top holders of his namesake memecoin as an "impeachable offense." The Georgia senator made the remarks during a town hall meeting, asserting that Trump was effectively "selling access" by granting audiences to individuals whose purchases directly enrich him.
The controversy stems from a gala dinner announced Wednesday for the 220 largest holders of the Trump-themed memecoin. Ossoff argues this constitutes improper financial influence, noting it’s just one of many potential violations. The accusation comes amid heightened scrutiny of cryptocurrency’s role in political finance.
