Quoted from congress.gov on


"The Trump administration has gutted the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, while promoting one industry over that almost exclusively. Which industry is that? It is the cryptocurrency industry." [S947-S949]

"This administration is playing with fire--dropping lawsuits, hollowing out enforcement, and curtailing investigations into bad actors, while cozying up to crypto donors." [S947-S949]

This week the Senate will consider a bill to help address the housing affordability crisis in America. I introduced five amendments to this bill to ensure homes are safe and affordable and to secure our financial markets from the volatility of crypto or scammers.

Binance’s evasive response completely dodges my questions & does little to ease my concerns that sanctioned entities, terrorist organizations, & other criminal actors have been surreptitiously laundering nearly $2B using its cryptocurrency exchange since its 2023 consent order.

🚨NEW: @SenTedCruz (R-TX) filed an amendment to strike the sunset provision on the CBDC ban in the Senate’s 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, which will likely have a series of votes next week. Sources close to Cruz tell me he plans to push for a vote on the amendment. Note: Cruz introduced the Senate version of the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act last year — the Senate companion to @GOPMajorityWhip’s House bill.

Trump’s crypto ventures are merely a pay-to-play bribery scheme for gov’t favors. Justin Sun propped up Trump’s memecoin & bought a seat at the President’s VIP crypto dinner. In return, he gets a generous SEC settlement for Tron’s history of massive fraud. nytimes.com/2026/03/05/us/…

The Trump family is raking in billions from crypto. How? Well, it helps that they removed ALL attorneys from CFTC Enforcement Division in Chicago, which oversees many crypto companies. Corruption. Enriching themselves at your expense. chicagobusiness.com/opinion/commen…

I just don’t think this guy is kidding about trying to take over elections, consolidate media, control AI and crypto for corrupt goals, and divide this country right down the middle. And I think a lot of super smart and decent people are trying not to believe their own eyes.

Sam Bankman-Fried, the fraudster who stole at least $8 billion from customers using his crypto exchange, just endorsed the CLARITY Act. That should set off alarm bells. Any crypto market structure bill must protect investors, our financial system, and American taxpayers.

Americans’ opinions about cryptocurrency are crystal clear. In a recent survey, 61% said they oppose using taxpayer dollars to bail out the crypto industry—including 57% of Trump supporters. Will the White House and Congressional Republicans protect the taxpayers or their rich crypto donors?

I met with members of the Illinois Soybean Association today to discuss federal policies that support our state’s farmers. President Trump broke his promise to farmers. It’s time to fix farm markets by ending Trump’s tariffs, creating new markets like E15, and focusing on farm crypto pet projects.

As he lets healthcare costs rise & calls affordability a "hoax," Trump's family & friends are cashing in on their connections. Since Trump's reelection, this crypto scheme has made the Trump & Witkoff families $1.4 BILLION richer. And, still, silence from Republicans. wsj.com/finance/curren…

Here's what the big tech companies have already committed to spend this fall to purge from Congress those who want to restrain them. Crypto - $190M AI - $100M Meta - $70M Huge numbers. Fundamentally corrupt. We shouldn't accept this.

Cryptocurrency is a notoriously risky asset that is vulnerable to financial crashes. But Senate Republicans voted down my amendment that would have prevented American taxpayers from being on the hook to pay for a crypto bailout.

Americans have lost more than $333 million to crypto ATM scams. I introduced an amendment to a crypto bill that would give law enforcement the tools to go after these scams and their perpetrators, but Senate Republicans voted it down.

Last year, this regime eased crypto-crime enforcement. And now, a recent investigation reveals that a top DOJ official held over $150,000 in cryptocurrency when he made the decision. This regime may let corruption and conflict of interest fly, but I don't.

There were already bipartisan negotiations to pass a cryptocurrency bill that would have provided more meaningful guardrails on the industry, but Republicans threw it out. Why? So President Trump and his crypto allies can profit off their own personal cryptocurrencies.
