PANews reported on May 24 that, according to Forbes, US President Trump may have potentially violated Title 18, Section 713 of the US Code by using the presidential seal at a private dinner for TRUMP meme coin holders. The law prohibits using the presidential seal in a way that implies government endorsement, with potential penalties of up to 6 months in prison or a fine. Legal experts noted that the presidential seal is only meant for official occasions, and previous presidents like Obama and Biden have never used this emblem in private commercial activities. The White House has not yet responded to media inquiries about the legality of the seal's use.
