In a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Attorney General Pam Bondi dated Tuesday, Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jack Reed requested an investigation by December 1 into World Liberty Financial's compliance with anti-money laundering rules, sanctions, and governance. The demand stems from a September report by Accountable.US alleging the project sold $WLFI governance tokens to wallets linked to North Korea's Lazarus Group, a Russian sanctions-evasion stablecoin, Iran's NoBitex exchange, and the sanctioned mixer Tornado Cash. DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

Pouyanné called for urgent investments in routes through Abu Dhabi, Iraq, Syria, and Turkey to avoid the strait, where traffic has plunged from 60 vessels daily to just 20 amid the 2026 Iran war sparked by strikes killing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

With the Strait of Hormuz choked by war, TotalEnergies CEO Patrick Pouyanné stood firm at a Paris conference: build pipelines now to secure the world's oil flow.
