Bank executives blow the whistle on how Obama, Biden admins pressured them to debank conservatives

[Billiejeens]

I know, I know, but you have to admit it makes you scratch your head, when they threw LEGAL JAPANESE AMERICANS into camps to hold them indefinitely, and we throw ILLEGALS into places to send them back to their country of origin quickly as possible, but we are the bad ones?!?!?!?!?!?!

Their GASLIGHTING is almost laughable-)

They are a Cult.

 

[jc456]

No, not that big of a deal and its not going to be the hot button for today.

I'll let you know.

you really think we care about your opinion? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

It never ends with the Cult.....

Chicago residents call Obama Presidential Center a 'monstrosity,' fear they'll be displaced: report

Chicago community leaders and longtime residents say the Obama Presidential Center risks washing away the neighborhood’s fabric, warning that proposed luxury developments tied to the project could price out families who have long called the South Side home.

Sounds like when Lois Lerner and the IRS were targeting businesses with conservative sounding names.

Wow another lame attempt to revise History?

They targeted newly formed Super PAC's claiming tax exempt status under Sections 501(c)(4) or 501(c)(6). The issue was of course blown out of proportion by the GOP Drama Queens. They had to verify a certain % of the applications, and instead of randomly selecting the required number of applications to verify, they used a focused search criteria on the names of the applying organizations. That search criteria was based on political sounding names. Lerner should have used a randomizing method.

Debanking is NOT FASCISM.

Ok, lefties.

 

[AntonToo]

Gubmint ordering around supposedly "free market" businesses is the very definition of fascism.

It's merely a slightly different flavor of socialism/communism.

Exactly! So why aren't you against Trump using his administration to go after banks who didn't want to do business with his criminal, un-American ass?

You Republicans really need to shut up with your whining and double standards.

Oh shut the hell up, you're always yelling fascism. Well dumbass, this is fascism.

 

[Marener]

I actually read the article. It’s one of the shittiest excuses for journalism I’ve ever seen.

Biden administration officials went after crypto because it’s full of fraud and a total scam. That’s the story here. It’s not political.

You Republicans really need to shut up with your whining and double standards.

Your party used to "debank" people like you for being black. Now they switched the target, and your dumb slave ass is cheering for it.

They claim risk to bank assets by doing business with right wing radicals.

Not so much for left wing radicals, that is ok.

This is a big deal, people. Are there no limits to which dems won't sink?

During the GM bailout, they skipped helping some dealerships that were conservative.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

This is a big deal, people. Are there no limits to which dems won't sink? Anything they won't do to harm their competition? Any lengths they won't go to?

This "Win at any cost" attitude needs to change. Now. Not tomorrow -- Now.

Bank executives blow the whistle on how Obama, Biden admins pressured them to debank conservatives

President Trump issued an executive order that bans debanking, as bank officials revealed regulatory pressure to close accounts of conservatives under previous administrations.

The executives said that ambiguity in federal laws was exploited by regulators under the Obama and Biden administrations in order to pursue political objectives. According to one executive, banks were pressured to deny services to certain industries as part of Operation Choke Point and Operation Choke Point 2.0.

"When there’s ambiguity in the law, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and for a long time the beholder was the Obama and Biden administration," the official said.

A House Oversight Committee report found that "Operation Choke Point," a DOJ task force whose aim was to "choke out" legal companies disfavored by the Obama administration, worked with bank regulators to label certain industries, including firearms sales, as "high risk."

In the wake of President Donald Trump's executive order outlawing debanking, major bank executives told Fox News Digital that they were under pressure by the Obama and Biden administrations to deny services to individuals and businesses for political reasons.


"Those pressures were very, very real. When your regulator gives you a suggestion, it’s not a suggestion, it’s an order. The political stuff is very real, those pressures are real," a senior banking executive told Fox News Digital.

Debanking refers to the practice of banks closing accounts or denying services to individuals or businesses, often with no explanation. The practice originated as part of federal anti-money laundering laws and regulations. An entity can be debanked after its transactions are marked suspicious, but in recent years, conservative and religious groups have accused banks of discriminating against them for their beliefs.

Fox News Digital spoke with two executives at leading U.S. banks, who asked to remain anonymous, fearing reprisals.

Don't remind me. I stay so angry. Living on a hair trigger. Even my "friends" and "decent posters" hate me at times and call me out when I fire off like loose cannon.


Todays observation from the cheap seats: Even the dirty poor HATE the dirty poor around them. (let that sink in).

True, but The Bastard and Rattshit were pikers compared to what FDR did with Banks, etc. FDR kept us in the Depression five years longer than necessary. Under FDR, we had a Recession DURING A DEPRESSION!! Look it up. How is that even possible?

dimocraps are scum. ALL of them.

In FDR's defense, he was dealing with an unknown phenom but, still..... How stupid do you have to be??

 

[BluesLegend]

This is a big deal, people.

Dem CORRUPTION is off the charts. There's no low Dems won't stoop to. No law they won't break. No lie they won't tell.

 

[BluesLegend]

And why? Because shit stain Democrats can't win on the issues and policy so they have to CHEAT, RIG, and FORCE people to RIG it in their favor.

Just read Schiff is freaking out and has established a legal defense fund for the possible millions he's going to have to cover in defense costs.

Destroying people's lives was so much fun when they did that to MAGA conservatives.
