Circle reportedly says it did not authorize the derivative suit filed on its behalf, which accuses Trump of taking foreign emoluments through World Liberty Financial. A longtime Circle shareholder filed suit against President Donald Trump on Thursday, alleging that two UAE-linked deals with his family’s crypto firm, World Liberty Financial , violated the Constitution’s Foreign Emoluments Clause and pulled stablecoin business away from Circle’s USDC.
