Ossoff: 'We're in Banana Republic Territory' with Trump Family Corruption
Tuesday, August 18, 2026
Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Georgia, said on MSNBC's "The Briefing" that the national bank regulator's preliminary approval for World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture involving members of the Trump family, to secure a bank charter represents a departure from normal governance standards. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency granted preliminary approval to the venture in 2025. Ossoff did not provide specific allegations of illegal conduct in the quoted remarks.
