美国众议院议员呼吁司法部调查唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）5月22日的晚餐

Members of the US House of Representatives have called for the Justice Department to investigate former President Donald Trump’s dinner for his top memecoin investors, which was held last week, over concerns about “foreign influence over US policy decisions” and “potential corruption and emoluments clause violations.”

美国众议院议员呼吁司法部对上周举行的前总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的前总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的晚宴进行调查，这是对“外国对美国政策决策的外国影响力”和“潜在的腐败和埃默尔条款违反条款的关注”。

In a May 22 letter to the Justice Department’s public integrity section acting chief, Edward Sullivan, 35 House members asked for an inquiry into whether the memecoin dinner, which was held at the Trump National Golf Club outside Washington, DC, on May 21, violated the federal bribery statute or the foreign emoluments clause of the US Constitution.

在5月22日给司法部公共诚信部门代理主管爱德华·沙利文（Edward Sullivan）的信中，有35名众议院成员要求询问5月21日在华盛顿特区特朗普国家高尔夫俱乐部举行的Memecoin晚宴，违反了联邦贿赂统计局还是《美国宪法》的《外国苏格兰条款》。

According to a Bloomberg report, a majority of the attendees at the dinner were likely foreign nationals based on their connections to crypto exchanges.

根据彭博社的一份报告，大多数参加晚宴的参与者可能是外国国民与加密交易所的联系。

“US law prohibits foreign persons from contributing to US political campaigns,” stated the letter from the House members. “However, the $TRUMP memecoin, including the promotion of a dinner promising exclusive access to the President, opens the door for foreign governments to buy influence with the President, all without disclosing their identities.”

众议院议员的信说：“美国法律禁止外国人为美国政治运动贡献。” “但是，特朗普的纪念物，包括促销晚餐有望与总统的独家访问权，为外国政府与总统购买影响力打开了大门，所有这些都没有透露其身份。”

The request for an investigation and a press conference asking Trump to “release the guest list” for the dinner both came hours ahead of the event. A group of protesters, joined by Senator Jeff Merkley, gathered outside the venue with signs stating “illegal crypto party” and “democracy is not for sale.”

调查的要求和新闻发布会要求特朗普在活动开始前几个小时“释放客人名单”。参议员杰夫·默克利（Jeff Merkley）参加的一群抗议者聚集在会场外，上面有“非法加密党”和“民主不出售”。

The protesters, who were seen in a video report by Semafor, also displayed a banner with the message: "No foreign interference in US elections. No foreign donations to candidates or parties. A president cannot be bought by a few billionaire donors or a foreign government."

Semafor在一份视频报告中看到的抗议者还显示了一个旗帜：“没有外国干预美国选举。没有外国向候选人或当事人捐款。总统不能由几个亿万富翁捐助者或外国政府购买。”

The Trump administration was previously warned about the risks of foreign interference in the 2020 election by intelligence officials, who briefed the president and his top aides.

以前，特朗普政府警告了情报官员在2020年大选中对外国干预的风险，后者向总统及其顶级助手介绍了。

The House members also mentioned in their letter that the administration responded to a request from the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2021 to provide any briefings or other materials related to foreign interference in the 2020 election.

众议院成员在信中还提到，政府在2021年对参议院情报委员会的要求作出回应，以提供2020年大选中与外国干预有关的任何简报或其他材料。

Despite the warnings, the administration ultimately decided not to take any significant action to counter the threat, which was attributed to Russia, China and Iran.

尽管有警告，但政府最终决定不采取任何重大行动来应对威胁，这归因于俄罗斯，中国和伊朗。

The call for a DOJ investigation and the press conference asking Trump to release the guest list both came hours ahead of the event. A group of protesters, joined by Senator Jeff Merkley, gathered outside the venue with signs stating "illegal crypto party" and "democracy is not for sale."
