In a CBS '60 Minutes' interview, President Trump addressed questions regarding his alleged pardon of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ). Trump stated, "I don't know him, I've only heard it's a witch hunt by the Biden administration." The interviewer mentioned Binance's involvement in facilitating a $2 billion stablecoin transaction for the Trump family's crypto project, World Liberty Financial. Trump denied any quid pro quo, asserting, "I know nothing about it," and emphasized, "My sons are running it, they are not government officials."
