Treasury confirms private bank transaction searches

[Thinker101]

The Biden administration has confirmed that terms like "MAGA," "Trump" and "Kamala" were included in the push by federal investigators for banks to surveil private financial transactions following the Jan. 6, 2021 protests at the U.S. Capitol.

The terms and codes were discovered as part of a House Judiciary Committee and Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government investigation.

Sources familiar told Fox News Digital last month that the search terms, like "MAGA" and "Trump," were generated by a bank and used to help them identify suspicious transactions when reviewing customer transactional information. It is unclear which bank generated the search terms.

Naw, the Federal Government would never invade your privacy.

Is there a federal right to privacy? Must have missed that one.

Yes actually….

“The most obvious protection of privacy in the Bill of Rights is the Fourth Amendment, which protects individuals in their persons, homes, papers, and effects from "unreasonable searches and seizures" by the government.”

They have been doing it since the GOP allowed it on 2001.

There was until Reagan and the Drug War.

The WEF hasn't taken over yet so privacy is still a thing.

If WEF shills like this have there way, Americans will own nothing, have 0 privacy, eat bugs, and be happy... or else.

Democrats = WEF

See the 4th amendment.

The 4th amendment is about search and seizures, not "privacy" and neither their house, person, papers or effects were searched in the bank computers.

LOL. The conservatives are the ones that destroyed any notion of privacy in the name of making sure no black folks got off on a technicality

And none of those things were searched and if they had been searched it still would only mean it couldn't be used against them in court, not that it couldn't have been taken.

Yawn another reference to a non-existent right in the 4th amendment. Even the SCOTUS said in Rakas v. Illinois (1978), any expectation of privacy must reside outside of the 4th amendment. You would have been better off going with the 9th amendment. At least its generic language was something to hide behind.

Amendment IV​

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.


BTW commie, the courts have long held, for the government, at any level, to access your phone or bank records, requires a warrant. It's really no different than them walking into your home and going through your paper files.

WEF/Democrats only understand power.

If you are in power, you rule, if you are not, you submit.

The Trump administration security depts ordered the search after the 1/6 attack on the Capitol, and prior to Joe Biden's inauguration on 1/20, which was Security's concern.... Is what was in the linked article?

The right to financial privacy act isn't in the constitution. That is statutory.
