On May 25, 2025, Johnson dismissed concerns about a dinner hosted by former President Trump, which lacked transparency. He noted he was busy with other duties and avoided addressing the issue directly, saying he wasn’t informed about the dinner.

Following the private dinner that brought together key investors in Trump’s meme coin, Democrats are urging a full attendee disclosure, citing potential violations of federal bribery laws and concerns regarding foreign influence.
