New Federal Sites Promote Trump’s Meme Coin Grift

404 Media reports:

The U.S. government registered thetrilliondollardinner.gov around the time Donald Trump announced people who invested in the president’s cryptocurrency, $TRUMP, could win a chance to meet him, according to a lawyer who spotted the domain and 404 Media’s corroboration of those findings. The government also registered the domains dinnerforamerica.gov, and thetrillion.gov.

The domains signal that there may have been plans to incorporate official government internet infrastructure with the memecoin investment dinner, with the dinner already presenting ethical issues around the president promoting certain investments he would personally profit from. At one point, at least one of the domains redirected to a Department of Commerce login portal, according to the lawyer.

A spokesperson for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), part of the Department of Homeland Security, confirmed the .gov domains really were registered in an email to 404 Media. CISA said the Department of Commerce was the entity that requested the domains and directed further requests for comment to it. The Department of Commerce did not respond to a request for comment.
