Law + Order Episode 7: Special Corruption Unit
None of these actions make our country safer or citizens more prosperous, but here are some of the things the Trump administration delivered this week:
With Tesla stock plummeting, President Trump and Elon Musk hosted a car show on tx.com/i/web/status/1… House immediately after Musk hinted he'll drop another $100M into Trump's political operation.
Speaker of the House Johnson calls for an investigation into "attacks" on Tesla owners and vehicles while framing Elon Musk's work eviscerating the federal workforce as "heroic."
The Justice Department is shrinking its public corruption unit just weeks after a top official there ordered the corruption charges against the New York Mayor to be dropped, and the unit's leader resigned in protest. This unit was created in 1976 in the wake of the Watergate scandal exposing Nixon's presidential corruption.
EPA director Lee Zeldin eliminated all EPA environmental justice offices, which exist to reduce pollution in poor rural and urban communities.
The Family Trump is in talks with Binance to buy a stake in the crypto exchange that pleaded guilty in 2023 to violating anti-money-laundering requirements.
FBI director Kash Patel is criminalizing Habitat for Humanity and similar groups that have received some level of funding from the EPA, alleging the groups are conspiring to defraud the US.
And for some reason, Donald Trump Jr. (but not his father nor the US Secretary of State) met in Belgrade with the Serbian president whose government signed a deal last year with Jared Kushner's company to build a hotel there.

In today’s @FinancialCmte hearing, I pushed back on the Biden SEC’s lawsuit-first crypto approach and voiced support for the Clarity Act—legislation that sets clear rules, empowers innovation, and ensures strong protections.
As President Trump said, America must lead the world in crypto.
This bill doesn’t just help us get there, it ensures we lead.

The Biden administration’s push for a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) threatened Americans' financial privacy. CBDCs give the federal government unprecedented control over our financial transactions.
That’s why I strongly support @GOPMajorityWhip Tom Emmer’s Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act to permanently ban unelected bureaucrats from creating a government-controlled digital currency.
Tomorrow, @FinancialCmte will explore why we need payment stablecoins for innovation and financial freedom, instead of a government-controlled CBDC that could be used to track and restrict lawful purchases.

Stablecoins are the on-ramp to the digital asset ecosystem. The STABLE Act, led by @RepBryanSteil & Chairman @RepFrenchHill, strikes the right balance which is why I’m an original cosponsor.
It empowers banks to leverage blockchain technology, expands access to digital assets, and reduces payment friction. This is a key step toward making the U.S. the crypto capital of the world—and delivering on @realDonaldTrump’s promise.

This landmark legislation sets up the first full regulatory pic.x.com/sBMB0cV9Zkns—ensuring they can be properly treated as payment methods and backed by the U.S. dollar, bolstering U.S. treasuries.
This is an important step forward. However, the CLARITY Act, which will establish a market structure for all digital assets, will truly bring crypto into our financial system.
Only through the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act can America give entrepreneurs, investors, and the markets the certainty they need to grow, invest, and raise capital.

Today, the @FinancialCmte advanced my bill, the SAFE Guidance Act—a commonsense step to rein in regulatory overreach.
Biden regulators too often used informal “guidance” as a backdoor to enforce policy without accountability. Operation Chokepoint 2.0 showed how these tools were used to pressure banks into cutting off lawful industries like crypto firms and energy companies. My bill requires that guidance documents clearly state they are nonbinding—so regulators can’t use them to intimidate or coerce.
Congress sets policy and laws, not unelected regulators. The SAFE Guidance Act makes sure regulatory guidance helps businesses—not harms them.

Today I spoke on the House Floor in support of H.R. 1919—the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act—because defending the Constitution and protecting Americans’ financial privacy is non-negotiable.
Article I, Section 8 is clear: only Congress—not the Fed—has the authority to “coin Money, regulate the Value thereof.” A Central Bank Digital Currency would centralize unprecedented power in the federal government and could open the door to real‑time surveillance of every financial transaction in America.
This bill ensures the Fed cannot even consider launching a digital dollar and reaffirms Congress’s role as the rightful steward of our currency.
Thank you to (@GOPMajorityWhip ) and Chairman (@RepFrenchHill ) for leading this fight to check government overreach and defend the freedoms our republic was built on.

At today’s @FinancialCmte Oversight Hearing, I pressed witnesses on how the Biden Administration’s Operation Choke Point 2.0 is just the latest version of the same playbook Obama used to debank industries he disfavored. The witnesses detailed how regulators didn’t issue formal bans but used vague threats, endless scrutiny, and regulatory pressure to force banks to cut off crypto firms. This is nothing new—it’s a deliberate abuse of power, and we need real solutions to ensure it never happens again. Calling it out isn’t enough.

Properly regulated stablecoins can provide fast, efficient payment solutions and ensure the U.S. dollar remains a global financial leader.
Unlike Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), stablecoins achieve these goals without compromising privacy or market freedom. To unlock the full potential of payment stablecoins, Congress must establish a federal framework for their issuance.
In today’s @FinancialCmte hearing, I questioned witnesses on how stablecoins can preserve individual privacy rights and maintain the U.S. dollar’s status as the leading global currency.

Great evening following the White House crypto roundtable, where President @realDonaldTrump’s Administration is stepping up to ensure the U.S. remains the global leader in crypto innovation.
It was great to hear from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who understands how crypto can help reprivatize the economy.
I also had insightful conversations with Michael Saylor and Avalanche CEO Emin Gün Sirer, both of whom are driving the next wave of technological progress.
Additionally, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and White House Crypto Czar David Sacks delivered a strong message on the need to fight back against debanking and regulatory overreach, ensuring that innovation stays in the U.S.
America must embrace digital assets—not push them offshore. Pro-crypto policies mean economic growth, financial freedom, and a stronger future.

The Biden administration’s Operation Choke Point 2.0 weaponized regulators to debank crypto, forcing innovation out of the U.S. The FDIC, OCC, and the Fed actively pressured banks to steer clear of digital assets—crippling crypto in our country.

President Trump is right to take bold action to end political debanking—and I fully back his executive order. No American should be denied banking access because of their political views, religious beliefs, or lawful business activities.
We’ve seen this happen across the country: firearms manufacturers, energy producers, and crypto innovators dropped by their banks—targeted not for risk, but for politics.
As Chairman of the Oversight & Investigations Subcommittee, I’ve led the fight to expose and stop this abuse. President Trump’s action is a major step forward—and now Congress must finish the job.
That’s why I introduced the SAFE Guidance Act and support the FIRM Act to ensure no administration can weaponize the banking system again.
