美國參議員喬恩·奧索夫（Jon Ossoff）呼籲對唐納德·特朗普總統彈each

在特朗普總統制定了有爭議的計劃之後，為頂級投資者提供了盛大晚宴

U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff has publicly called for the impeachment of President Donald Trump following a controversial scheme to offer top-tier investors access to a gala dinner in exchange for his freshly unveiled cryptocurrency, $TRUMP.

美國參議員喬恩·奧索夫（Jon Ossoff）公開呼籲唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）總統在一項有爭議的計劃中施加彈each，以向頂級投資者提供盛大晚宴，以換取他剛剛揭曉的加密貨幣，特朗普$。

The heated comments by the Democratic senator from Georgia came at a town hall meeting on Friday evening. During the meeting, Ossoff expressed his deep concern over the president’s actions, which he believes warrant impeachment.

佐治亞州民主黨參議員的激烈評論是在周五晚上的一次市政廳會議上。在會議上，奧索夫對總統的行為表示深切關注，他認為這是彈each的保證。

“When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him — there is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense,” Ossoff stated emphatically.

奧索夫強調說：“當美國現任總統向他直接向他付款時，毫無疑問，這會提高到彈each犯罪的水平。”

The event in question is set to take place on May 22 at Trump National Golf Club near Washington, D.C., where the top 220 holders of the $TRUMP coin are invited for an “intimate private” dinner with the president.

該活動定於5月22日在華盛頓特區附近的特朗普國家高爾夫俱樂部舉行，邀請特朗普硬幣的前220名持有人與總統一起參加“親密的私人”晚餐。

Moreover, the top 25 investors will be granted a VIP reception and a special tour, initially billed as a “White House Tour” before the labeling was removed following public scrutiny.

此外，在公眾審查之後，將刪除標籤之前，將獲得前25名投資者的VIP招待會和特別巡迴演出，最初被稱為“白宮巡迴演出”。

Senator Ossoff highlighted the ethical implications of this arrangement, asserting that it's dangerous and blurs the lines between political service, personal gain, and public trust.

Ossoff參議員強調了這種安排的道德含義，斷言這很危險，並模糊了政治服務，個人利益和公眾信任之間的界限。

“We’re told that the president will be granting audiences to people who purchase an asset that increases in value and benefits him directly—now we've reached a new level of corruption,” Ossoff added.

Ossoff補充說：“我們被告知，總統將向購買價值增加並直接使他受益的資產的人們授予觀眾，現在我們已經達到了新的腐敗水平。”

The meme coin at the center of the controversy, $TRUMP, has seen a sharp rise in value. Since the gala dinner announcement, the token has surged over 50%. That increase has added millions to the estimated $10.8 billion tokens Trump and his associates held.

爭議中心的模因硬幣，特朗普$，價值急劇上升。自晚餐公告以來，令牌飆升了50％以上。這種增長增加了數百萬美元的特朗普及其同事所持有的百萬美元。

The TRUMP coin was launched earlier this year and has gained a loyal base of retail crypto investors. It’s one of several Trump-linked crypto ventures, which include a stablecoin issuer, a Bitcoin mining project, and a crypto ETF (exchange-traded fund).

特朗普硬幣是在今年早些時候推出的，並獲得了零售加密投資者的忠實基礎。這是與特朗普有連接的加密貨幣合資企業之一，其中包括一個穩定的發行人，一個比特幣採礦項目和一個加密貨幣ETF（交易所交易基金）。

The president has made cryptocurrency a cornerstone of his economic messaging, promising to turn the United States into a “Bitcoin superpower.” He has appointed pro-crypto figures to key financial oversight roles and publicly encouraged crypto adoption.

總統使加密貨幣成為他經濟消息傳遞的基石，承諾將美國變成“比特幣超級大國”。他已任命Pro-Crypto數字來關鍵的財務監督角色，並公開鼓勵採用加密貨幣。

But ethics experts and many political opponents have sounded the alarm. They say Trump’s deep involvement in crypto ventures — especially ones that appear to profit him directly — creates a massive conflict of interest. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin called the gala move state-sponsored market manipulation.

但是道德專家和許多政治反對者都發出了警報。他們說，特朗普對加密貨幣的深度參與，尤其是似乎直接使他受益匪淺的冒險活動，造成了巨大的利益衝突。以太坊聯合創始人Vitalik Buterin稱盛會舉動國家贊助的市場操縱。

“I’m not sure if any other country’s president does this: announces an exploitable secret to grant economic favors to his supporters,” Buterin said in a recent blog post. “Perhaps in the 1980s during the administration of a president who was also a movie star, we might have seen something comparable.”

“我不確定其他國家的總統是否這樣做：宣布一個可剝削的秘密，以向他的支持者授予經濟支持，”布特林在最近的博客文章中說。 “也許在1980年代，在總統的管理期間，他也是電影明星，我們可能已經看到了一些可比的東西。”

Although Trump does not directly receive proceeds from token sales, critics argue that the gala incentive can still drive token prices up — increasing Trump’s wealth and influence without transparency or accountability.

儘管特朗普沒有直接從代幣銷售中獲得收益，但批評家認為，晚會激勵措施仍然可以推動代幣價格上漲 - 在沒有透明度或問責制的情況下，提高了特朗普的財富和影響力。

Democratic lawmakers have expressed alarm over the potential ethical violations. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff requested that the U.S. Office of Ethics open a probe into the President’s actions, noting that the dinner could indicate that Trump and his officials may be engaging in “pay to play” corruption by selling presidential access to individuals or entities. Senator Chris Murphy labeled the initiative as the “most brazenly corrupt” action by a sitting president.

民主黨議員對潛在的道德違規行為表示震驚。參議員伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）和亞當·席夫（Adam Schiff）要求美國道德辦公室對總統的行動進行調查，並指出晚餐可能表明特朗普及其官員可能通過向個人或實體出售總統的機會來從事“付費競爭”腐敗。參議員克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）將這項倡議稱為現任總統的“最狂熱的腐敗”行動。

Despite the strong opinion from Senator Ossoff, a formal inquiry seems improbable — the Republicans control Congress, and President Trump fired the Ethics Office director in February. The White House has argued that his children manage his assets and that he has no conflict of interest.

儘管奧索夫參議員發表了強烈的看法，但正式的調查似乎不可能 - 共和黨控制國會，特朗普總統於2月解雇了道德辦公室主任。白宮辯稱，他的孩子管理他的資產，他沒有利益衝突。

To begin impeachment proceedings, the House of Representatives must vote to charge the president with “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” If passed, the Senate would then hold a trial. Two-thirds of senators must vote to convict or remove the president.

為了開始彈each程序，眾議院必須投票表決“叛國，賄​​賂或其他高罪分子和輕罪”指控總統。如果通過，參議院將進行審判。三分之二的參議員必須投票決定定罪或罷免總統。

Trump already faced two impeachments in his first term, failing to lead to conviction in the Senate.

特朗普在他的第一個任期中已經面臨兩次彈each，未能導致參議院定罪。

Senator Ossoff warned that the issue extends beyond a single gala or cryptocurrency. He said the U.S. political system is already plagued by a troubling norm where elected officials often give access in exchange for campaign contributions. However, Ossoff noted that what President Trump is doing marks a dangerous new development — granting access based on an asset that increases in value and benefits him.

Ossoff參議員警告說，該問題超出了一個盛會或加密貨幣。他說，美國的政治制度已經困擾著令人不安的規範，當選官員經常提供競選捐款的機會。但是，奧索夫指出，特朗普總統所做的事情標誌著一個危險的新發展 - 基於增加價值並受益​​於他的資產獲得訪問權限。

"We can't have a system where the president is selling access to the highest bidders, especially when the bidders are investing in an asset designed to enrich the president directly," Ossoff added.

Ossoff補充說：“我們不能擁有一個系統，總統正在向最高投標人出售訪問權限，尤其是當投標人投資於旨在直接豐富總統的資產時。”

The senator's comments come as President Trump is expected to return to Washington, D.C., next week to prepare for the 2024 presidential election.

參議員的評論是隨著特朗普總統將於下週返回華盛頓特區，為2024年總統大選做準備。

As the midterm elections approach, Ossoff urged voters to back Democratic candidates, saying restoring checks and balances would only be possible if Democrats gained control of

隨著中期選舉的臨近，奧索夫敦促選民支持民主黨候選人，並說只有民主黨人控制了製止和余額才能恢復檢查和余額
