The White House isn’t providing clarity on the fate of President Donald Trump’s pick for a key Wall Street regulator position, and it’s causing confusion on the Senate committee tasked with advancing the president’s nomination.
On Monday, the Senate Agriculture Committee cancelled a vote to advance Brian Quintenz, who Trump nominated to lead the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
Since then, an apparent campaign against Quintenz by some of Trump’s biggest supporters in the cryptocurrency industry has spilled out into the open.
