Planned Crypto Hearing in U.S. House Derailed by Democrat Revolt

Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives derailed what was supposed to be a joint hearing on crypto policy efforts on Tuesday, insisting that President Donald Trump's personal crypto dealings were too urgent to allow other discussion on instituting industry regulations."I object to this joint hearing because of the corruption of the president of the United States and his ownership of crypto and his oversight of all the agencies," said Maxine Waters, the ranking Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, effectively robbing the gathering of its official status that required unanimous consent to proceed with the panel's joint hearing alongside the House Agriculture Committee source: https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2025/05/06/planned-crypto-hearing-in-u-s-house-derailed-by-democrat-revolt
