The Trump Organization Sues Capital One Bank for Politically-Discriminatory Debanking

Trump is fighting the war on all fronts simultaneously.

Capital One Bank, emboldened by the Nazi media and authoritarian left, "debanked" all Trump supporters located in Washington DC on Insurrection Day (which will one day become a federal holiday celebrating freedom and #Resistance against a corrupt regime). They debanked the Trump Organization and other Trump concerns as well.

On Friday, the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust, DJT Holdings, and other entities under the Trump Organization run by Eric and Donald Trump, Jr. sued Capital One in Dade County, Fla., federal court for "unjustifiably" closing the Trump organization's bank accounts.

The 22-page complaint alleges that on March 8, 2021, Capital One "notified Plaintiffs that hundreds of bank accounts that they controlled, were beneficiaries of, and actively used to transact would be closed on June 7, 2021. Capital One did not provide Plaintiffs any recourse, remedy, or alternative--its decision was final."

Trump world contends that it "suffered considerable financial harm and losses caused not only by the interruption to their access to Capital One's banking services, but also by the devastating impact on Plaintiffs' ability to transact and access their monies."

The Trump Organization alleges that though its entities had been Capital One's customers for decades, the bank, because of its "woke beliefs ... needed to distance itself from President Trump and his conservative political views. In essence, Capital One 'de-banked' Plaintiffs' Accounts because Capital One believed that the political tide at the moment favored doing so." The Trump entities also allege that Capitol One broke consumer laws in North Carolina, New Jersey, Minnesota, and Nebraska.

Eric Trump said the company's treatment of the Trump Organization "was a clear attack on free speech and free enterprise that flies in the face of the bedrock principles and freedoms that define our country. Moreover, the arbitrary closure of these accounts, without justifiable cause, reflects a broader effort to silence and undermine the success of the Trump Organization and those who dare to express their political views."

Capital One insists the allegations are untrue.

Capital One isn't the only one accused of discriminating against customers for their political viewpoints. Bank of America is, too. Even Sen. Liz Fauxchahontas Warren's staff counted 11,955 people who complained that BOA cut them off without warning or explanation.

Bring the reckoning.
