Senator Elizabeth Warren’s report revealed that six Trump-linked firms—Kalshi, Polymarket, Trump Media & Technology Group, American Bitcoin, Powerus, and Kaz Resources—denied involvement in the IRS settlement. The agreement, which grants Trump and affiliated parties broad immunity, has drawn criticism from CFT advocates and MiCA observers. Republican senators Cornyn and Tillis urged the DOJ to narrow the scope of the deal, delaying a vote on nominee Blanche. Senate Finance Democrats proposed an amendment to repeal the immunity and ban similar deals with sitting presidents, set for a vote on Thursday.

ME News reports that on July 30 (UTC+8), Senator Elizabeth Warren unveiled the findings of an investigation into 11 companies affiliated with Donald Trump and his family. Six of these companies—Kalshi, Polymarket, Trump Media & Technology Group, American Bitcoin, Powerus, and Kaz Resources—responded that they did not participate in and are not bound by the immunity agreement. The other five—The Trump Organization, World Liberty Financial, 1789 Capital, the Future Industries Foundation, and Tag Air—did not respond. The agreement is part of a settlement between Trump and the IRS, stipulating that the federal government shall “never” prosecute Trump or any “related or affiliated” parties for actions prior to the settlement. Due to widespread controversy over the agreement’s broad scope, Republican Senators Cornyn and Tillis have called on the Department of Justice to narrow its scope; the scheduled Thursday vote by the Judiciary Committee has been postponed, delaying the confirmation of Attorney General nominee Brand. Additionally, Democratic members of the Senate Finance Committee have proposed an amendment to repeal the immunity agreement and prohibit the IRS from entering into similar agreements with sitting presidents or their affiliates, with a vote expected on Thursday.
