The Trump Organization had roughly 385 accounts closed by Capital One after the bank’s anti-money-laundering team spent months reviewing them.
Imagine the reaction if this involved any other prominent political family.
If any other president’s businesses had hundreds of bank accounts terminated after an anti-money-laundering review by one of the nation’s largest banks, it would dominate the news cycle.
Instead, it surfaced in a federal court filing on a Friday afternoon and is being largely forgotten by Monday.
And it wasn’t just one bank.
There is a separate lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase involving accounts it also closed during roughly the same period. Trump says the banks engaged in politically motivated debanking. The banks say they acted for legitimate business and compliance reasons. The courts will decide those cases.
What is not in dispute is that while these lawsuits are pending, Trump is using the power of the presidency to push regulators toward policies that would make it harder for banks to take similar actions in the future. When a president’s private business disputes and public authority begin to overlap, every American should pay attention.
We’ve seen this pattern before. In 2019, during his first term, Trump sued Capital One and Deutsche Bank to block them from complying with congressional subpoenas seeking his financial records.
The public deserves to know why hundreds of Trump-linked accounts were closed, why so much of the record remains under seal, and whether a sitting president’s personal financial interests are influencing the exercise of public power.
This is not the standard of accountability we should expect from someone entrusted with the presidency.

Susan Collins voting against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Shout out to Reuters and ABC for pushing this story, but this should be fucking everywhere.
The most openly corrupt individual this country has ever seen. No one else comes close.
EXCLUSIVE: US has used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war, sources say https://t.co/1rXWjY3i00 https://t.co/1rXWjY3i00
"The Army has used up 'virtually all' of its stockpile of highly accurate long-range missiles during its five-month war with Iran, raising concerns about the military's readiness for future conflicts" https://t.co/5RnEZsfCtH
EXCLUSIVE: The U.S. has used “virtually all” of its precision strike missiles during the war in Iran. Stockpiles on ATACMs and Precision Strike Missiles are almost depleted. And we have used about half of our Tomahawks, per new data circulating inside the admin.
Voters must be able to choose elected leaders who actually deliver for them on the issues that matter – lowering the cost of living, investing in public schools, or keeping us safe. HB 958 makes it harder for people to vote and easier for partisans to throw out votes after the election is over when they don’t like the results. This bill undermines our elections and weakens our democracy. I urge all North Carolinians to demand their legislators to vote against it.
This morning the Judiciary Committee is expected to approve Trump’s personal lawyer, Todd Blanche, for Attorney General.
Republicans will claim they got a commitment to end Trump’s political payout slush fund.
THEY DID NOT. Let me tell you why.
Donald Trump has publicly said at least 42 times since late March 2026 that the United States and Iran were close to reaching a deal.
42 times.
He lied every time, and he continues to lie to us.
Now, in Texas, if you have a couple of weed vapes in your possession, you could face up to 10 years in prison & felony charges.
Meanwhile, Ken Paxton let a convicted child molester off with a one-day jail sentence.
Absolutely insane.
Capital One says it closed hundreds of bank accounts associated with President Trump and his businesses in 2021 "for anti-money laundering reasons," according to a recent court filing from the financial institution. https://t.co/V2HINV5vp2
Could you imagine the wall to wall coverage that would happen if Capitol One closed 300 bank accounts of Biden’s and said it was for anti-money laundering reasons?
Tomorrow the House is considering a bill that aims to eliminate the Wild West that is North Carolina’s THC market. For some reason, the bill also legalizes kratom, an opioid-like substance sometimes called gas station heroin, and fails to include any meaningful age restrictions. The legislature should be focused on creating a safe and well-regulated adult THC market that protects kids.
