US Senator Warren Demands SEC Investigate Trump Meme Coin, Questions Whether It Involves "Illegal Scam"
According to CNN reports, U.S. Democratic Senators Warren and Blumenthal have requested the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to investigate the "TRUMP" Meme coin issued by Trump to confirm whether the project involves fraud or improper profit. In a letter to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, the two stated that the Trump Meme coin project "may constitute an illegal scam," and requested the regulatory agency to investigate whether the token involves "illegal fraudulent conduct or facilitates improper profit acquisition." Warren and Blumenthal focused in the letter on whether the project resembles a "Rug Pull" (exit scam) in the crypto industry. They believe that even if it is not a sudden divestiture-style rug pull in the traditional sense, it may still belong to a "soft rug pull" that causes investor losses by gradually withdrawing market support. The SEC should investigate whether the Trump Meme coin poses fraud risks and prevent investors from continuing to suffer losses. As of now, the SEC has not commented on this.
U.S. Media: Trump Promoted Companies on Truth Social Days After Buying Their Stocks
Last year, U.S. President Donald Trump posted "very big and exciting news" on his Truth Social platform. This came just after computer chip manufacturing giant Nvidia (NVDA.O) announced plans to build AI supercomputers in the United States. In a post on April 15, 2025, Trump promised his over 9 million followers that "all necessary permits will be expedited and promptly delivered to Nvidia and similar companies."However, what Trump did not disclose at the time was that, just days earlier, he had purchased between $200,000 and $500,000 worth of the company's stock. An investigation by CNN found that Trump had promoted over 20 companies on his Truth Social account days after buying their stocks—sometimes announcing government actions that could benefit the very companies he had just invested in. The White House strongly denied that Trump had ever used his position for personal gain, stating that all his actions were intended to benefit the American public. White House officials said all of the president's stock trades were handled by external financial managers, and that Trump and his family had no control over specific transactions. (CNN)
US Congress Divided Over Whether Iran Conflict Triggers 60-Day Deadline of War Powers Act
According to the U.S. War Powers Act of 1973, the President must terminate the use of armed forces within a 60-day deadline after initiating military action without congressional authorization. Currently, some lawmakers argue that May 1 marks the expiration of this deadline, citing President Trump's notification to Congress on March 2 regarding the commencement of hostilities. However, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated that the current ceasefire status means the 60-day clock has been paused or stopped.In response, Senator Adam Schiff argued that a ceasefire does not pause the clock, and believes that since the war did not face an imminent threat at its outset, the military action was illegal from the start. Meanwhile, some Republican lawmakers, such as Lisa Murkowski, indicated that if the White House fails to present a viable plan by next week, they will introduce an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) proposal to fulfill Congress's oversight duties under the Constitution. At present, uncertainty remains over whether President Trump will seek the additional 30-day extension allowed by the Act. (CNN)
Trump appears to shift stance on US soldier who bet on Maduro's capture; some allies support pardon

Upon learning that the soldier had bet on Maduro's downfall, Trump compared the situation to baseball legend Pete Rose betting on his own team to win, downplaying the response. Trump stated: "It's like Rose betting on his own team to win. If he bet on his own team to lose, that would be bad, but he bet on them to win. I will look into it."

Strait of Hormuz oil tanker traffic has "essentially come to a standstill"
Odaily Planet Daily reported that with the precarious 60-day ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran, oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has "essentially come to a standstill." Jorge Leon, head of geostrategic analysis at research firm Rystad, wrote in a note on Wednesday: "So far today, it appears traffic has completely stopped." He added that this state of "virtual halt" "reflects current risk expectations more than any statement from Washington or Tehran." According to data from Kpler, only four tankers had passed through the strait so far today.Naveen Das, senior oil analyst at Kpler, stated that since the US and Iran reached a 60-day ceasefire agreement on June 17, the average daily number of tankers passing through has been about 32. This figure is nearly three times the average daily traffic between the start of the conflict (February) and the agreement on June 17, though it remains well below pre-war levels. (CNN)
