Democrats Demand Treasury Disclose SARs on Trump-Linked Crypto Projects

A group of Democratic lawmakers is intensifying scrutiny into President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency ventures by requesting access to suspicious activity reports (SARs) related to Trump-backed tokens and associated entities. In a letter dated May 14, Representatives Gerald Connolly, Joseph Morelle, and Jamie Raskin asked Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to provide all SARs filed since 2023 that mention World Liberty Financial (WLF), the Official Trump token, and other related entities. SARs are documents filed by financial institutions with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a branch of the U.S. Treasury, when potentially illicit financial activities are detected. The lawmakers are requesting these records no later than May 30, as part of what they describe as a broader investigation into possible violations of campaign finance, bribery, securities laws, and other forms of corruption. Concerns Over Foreign Influence and Anonymous Investors The letter from the Democratic lawmakers raises specific concerns about the potential misuse of Trump-affiliated crypto projects . It claims that WLF could be a vehicle for foreign influence due to part of its token offering being accessible to international investors—who are typically subject to less stringent U.S. regulations. Additionally, the lawmakers cite the involvement of controversial crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun, who invested in WLF. Sun’s participation, coupled with a temporary pause in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s lawsuit against him , adds another layer of concern, the letter suggests. The Trump token also came under fire for its lack of transparency. The identities of its buyers are not made public, which lawmakers argue could allow anonymous entities to attempt to gain political favor by purchasing the token in large volumes. SARs Mentioning WinRed In addition to crypto tokens, the Democrats are also seeking SARs mentioning WinRed—a Republican fundraising platform—and political donors such as Elon Musk’s super PAC, which contributed $250 million to Trump’s campaign. The request extends to any references involving political action committees (PACs), Trump’s inner circle, and even former First Lady Melania Trump. This letter follows earlier actions by Democratic lawmakers targeting Trump’s crypto dealings. On May 9, another letter was reportedly sent to the Justice and Treasury Departments regarding Trump’s ties to Binance , as per Bloomberg. And on May 6, Democrats unveiled two bills and launched a subcommittee inquiry aimed at curbing Trump’s ability to profit from digital assets.
