Not to mention the Canadian banks who confiscated accounts from the peaceful truckers who did not want to be injected with the very dangerous and utterly ineffective mRNA gene-altering experiment.

Conspiracy theories are dangerous & those promoting them must be silenced. Anyone involved in spreading the lies that Iraq had WMDs, that the Trump Campaign colluded with Russia, that covid came from nature, or that Hunter Biden’s laptop was fake, must have their accounts locked.

Banks are being used to suppress legitimate political dissent.

Do NOT trust that your bank will give you your money.

Iranians got out in droves and attempted a color revolution. This is how they forced their government to implement these new soft(er) rules. If "gatito" wants results they need to get off their kiester and attempt a color revolution themselves.

Wait, color revolutions are baaaaad. Nevermind. Carry on.

Bad or fake?

Right, in my understanding, a color revolution is a fake revolution orchestrated by the CIA/NSA, Victoria Nuland, and similar types.

Name a color revolution that improved the nation. Give me every example you can think of.

Maybe the CIA doesn't have a 100% perfect record of fucking up whatever with their reverse Midas touch. I can accept that as a possibility, but I'd need to have examples.

French people are not all there. You don't fuck with a Frenchie, you'll have to kill him if you do, before he kills you.

If Macron declared emergency, and did all of that typical stuff. The French people would make those Jihad stabbings look like a "tag you're IT!" game.

Nigel Farage wasn’t the only Brit getting de-banked this week. The UK Times ran a story yesterday headlined, “Yorkshire Building Society ‘Closed Vicar’s Account After Trans Protest’.”

The Yorkshire Building Society is a large, oddly-named British bank, having over three million customers. About two weeks ago, YBS emailed customers a monthly survey asking for feedback on the bank’s customer service and operations.

That’s where the trouble started.

Meet Anglican Vicar Richard Fothergill, 62, a satisfied YBS customer for over seventeen years. Well. He’s not satisfied anymore.

The good vicar, feeling a sense of loyalty and a desire only to be helpful, responded to the bank’s June 18th inquiry, politely offering among other more mundane feedback that the bank might consider dialing down all the rainbow-colored transgender ideology in its communications and on its website, suggesting instead that the bank “should concentrate their efforts on managing money, instead of promoting LGBT ideology.”

Seems fair.

But four days later, on June 22nd, Richard received a formal notice from his bank, responding to his feedback. It referenced his “views regarding LGBTQIA+,” and ominously advising the vicar that his feedback offended the bank’s “zero-tolerance approach to discrimination,” explaining his survey comments were “not tolerable.”

When asked by the Times for an explanation, YBS sort-of denied cancelling Vicar Fothergill, suggesting the pastor had been debunked for some reason other than his beliefs, but without exactly saying that, in a classic Orwellian statement:

We never close savings accounts based on different opinions regarding beliefs or feedback provided by our customers. We only ever make the difficult decision to close a savings account if a customer is rude, abusive, violent or discriminates in any way, based on the specific facts, comments and behaviour in each case.
“Discriminates in ANY WAY.” I wonder if in the bank’s view, Richard’s orthodox Christian beliefs are “discriminating in any way.”

Paradoxically, by de-banking Reverend Fothergill, YBS seems to have “discriminated in any way” against the vicar for his religious beliefs. Remember, ZERO tolerance. There’s only one way out of this paradox.

YBS should de-bank itself! It should refuse to do any business with itself any more.

Chase Bank Shuts Down Dr. Joseph Mercola's Business Bank Accounts, Including CEO, CFO, And Their Family Members
No Reason Given

The right answer is to use credit unions, which are local.

And have multiple accounts, at least two at two different credit unions.
52   Patrick   2023 Jul 26, 6:00am  




Worked for Farage because he has a lot of visibility, but I don't think that less visible people will be able to fight bank perfidity as effectively.
53   fdhfoiehfeoi   2023 Jul 26, 8:40am  

Why the fuck is Mercola using Rockefeller/Morgan for his bank. In business morality still matters. Don't do business with immoral people and expect them to act in your best interests. The whole false dichotomy that attempts to separate morals and business is ludicrous, and one of the greatest failings of the church.

Know any good ones in Bay Area
I use Patelco. My wife uses USE. My friend worked for Travis Credit Union but was FIRED for refusing the vax. Not real happy with these three.

I would like a credit union that has good ATM access as well as some CD's I can ladder my emergency funds into.

In case anyone isn't aware, Chase Manhattan is the original name for the "Chase" side of the current bank, founded by the Rockefeller's. JP Morgan bank is the other half. They have merged, and are now called just Chase.

It was Chemical Bank that bought Chase because of Chase's weakened balance sheet, but just kept the Chase name as it had a larger presence population-wise through its credit card operations. Banks couldn't have full banking operations across State lines until 1995.

Funny how the big banks had to forego share buybacks just recently. Wonder if anything is up.

Let’s protect free speech for all not just the Left, says Toby Young

The truth is that if your opinions align with those of the metropolitan elite you have little to fear from your bank manager or your employer, but if you're a maverick or dissenter you'd better watch out, writes Toby Young.

I’ve spent the past couple of weeks trying to whip up support for Nigel Farage in his battle against woke British banks.

Closing people’s accounts for expressing the “wrong” views is a brutally effective type of censorship that originated in Communist China and has no place in a supposedly free country like ours.

My first thought was to create a meme based on the old advert for the National Lottery.

A giant hand holding a pair of rainbow-coloured scissors would emerge from a high street bank.

Then it would cut up the credit card of an unsuspecting member of the public, with the caption: “It could be you!”

But I realised this wouldn’t capture the threat posed by this sinister new form of cancel culture because not everyone is equally at risk.

The people most in danger of losing their accounts are those with unfashionable views, whether it’s the former leader of the Brexit Party or Richard Fothergill, a Church of England vicar who was de-banked by the Yorkshire Building Society after he objected to its promotion of trans ideology.

I think that’s why almost no one on the Left of British politics has taken Nigel’s side in this dispute.

So far, broadcasters Paul Mason and Emily Maitlis, Remoaner propagandist Alastair Campbell, Labour’s Rachel Reeves and comedian Omid Djalili have defended Coutts’s decision to defenestrate the GB News presenter.

A YouGov opinion poll last week revealed 24 percent of Labour voters think banks should be allowed to remove customers who have personal or political beliefs that don’t align with their values.

Labour leader Keir Starmer did eventually mutter something about how no one should be refused banking services because of their views, but it had to be dragged out of him.

Think how different the reaction would have been if it had been Jeremy Corbyn who’d been de-banked and not Nigel Farage, particularly if the lender then leaked confidential details of his finances to the BBC in an effort to pretend the reason he’d lost his account was for purely “commercial reasons”.

The entire Liberal Establishment would have been up in arms, demanding the head of the bank’s CEO.

The same people who’ve been sniggering at Nigel’s misfortune would have been loudly proclaiming that having a bank account is a basic human right, like access to water and electricity.

Indeed, something like this happened a few weeks ago when The Sun published a story alleging that a senior BBC presenter had been paying a teenager to send him sexually explicit photographs.

When it emerged that the presenter in question was Huw Edwards, a similar cast of Left-wing panjandrums to those who’ve been making excuses for Coutts leapt to his defence and attacked the newspaper for trying to “cancel” him.

He’d done nothing illegal, they argued, so why should he lose his livelihood?

I couldn’t help laughing at that.

At the Free Speech Union, we defend people every week who’ve lost their jobs, not because they’ve broken the law but because they’ve challenged some aspect of woke dogma, whether it’s objecting to the Black Lives Matter flag hanging from their office building or refusing to attend “trans awareness” training.

The truth is that if your opinions align with those of the metropolitan elite you have little to fear from your bank manager or your employer, but if you’re a maverick or dissenter you’d better watch out.

If you voted Remain in the EU referendum, you wear a rainbow-coloured lanyard professing yourself to be an ally of the LGBTQ+ community and you suffer regular anxiety attacks because you think we’re in the midst of a climate emergency, you’re entitled to the full suite of human rights, including due process if you’re accused of any wrongdoing.

But if you’re a Brexiteer, the Pride flag brings you out in hives and you’re sceptical about Net Zero, you have fewer rights than an Albanian drug smuggler arriving on a rubber dinghy.

I cannot help thinking it’s short-sighted of the Liberal Left to be so selective about whose rights they defend. They may be in the ascendancy at the moment, but what if their political fortunes change?

As American free speech activist Ira Glasser put it: “Speech restrictions are like poison gas: they seem like a good idea when you’ve got the gas and a deserving target in sight. But then the wind shifts and blows the gas back on you.”

You mean the Chemical Bank run by Standard Oil partner Edward Harkness? So Rockefeller merged their own bank, no where have a heard that story before..?

How One Trump January 6 Charge Could End Up Criminalizing Left-Wing Protest

The unusual application of an Enron-era accounting law could open up a prosecutorial Pandora's Box of criminalizing a wide range of protest.

Could the push for accountability over the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, end up sending left-wing activists to prison for decades?

In addition to straightforward charges of assaulting police officers and violent entry, federal prosecutors are trying to lock up former President Donald Trump and other Jan. 6 defendants for violating an obscure criminal statute –penal code 18 U.S.C. 1512(c)(2) – never used before in a similar context.

The charge under this statutory provision makes it a crime to “corruptly” obstruct, in­fluence, or impede any official government proceeding, and carries a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in prison. ...

Disruption of government proceedings is an activist tactic that is widely revered among left-wing movements.

Consider the following examples:

Extinction Rebellion, a group that uses confrontational tactics to demand action on climate change, superglued themselves to doorways in Congress, blocking lawmakers and staff from attending evening votes.

Left-wing demonstrators attempted to stop the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh through a variety of delaying tactics. Activist groups openly planned actions designed to disrupt the committee hearings with protests, by "standing up, vocalizing our dissent, being arrested and forcibly removed.”

In 2016, Democrats staged a sit-in on the floor of the House of Representatives to demand a vote on gun control legislation. The sit-in ground the legislative chamber to a halt for an entire day.

These protests were prosecuted lightly. The vast majority of the more than 200 people arrested during the Kavanaugh protests were charged with a misdemeanor of disorderly conduct, crowding, or obstructing, which carries no prison time and a fine of $35 or $50. ...

But were these actions altogether different from the kind of “obstruction of an official proceeding” charges leveled against Jan. 6 participants and now Trump?

Bank of America Cancels Account of Conservative Christian Charity

Memphis-based non-profit Indigenous Advance Ministries (IAM) provides necessities to Ugandan orphans had its account shut down by Bank of America.

The organization has filed a complaint to the Tennessee Attorney-General’s office over concerns its accounts were shut down because Bank of America disagrees with its “religious views.”

IAM, which claims to have had a banking relationship with BofA since 2015, supports pro-life and anti-same-sex relationship values, according to its website.

BofA firmly denies it “debanked” the body over these views but has refused to explain why the account was canceled.

The bank told the Daily Mail that “religious beliefs are not a factor in any account-closing decision.”

However, campaigners are calling for greater transparency over how firms decide which accounts to shut down.

The cancellation of IAM’s account comes as cases of political and religious “debanking” appear to be on the rise.

The term “debanking” hit headlines across the globe last month after UK politician Nigel Farage – a close ally of President Donald Trump who pioneered the country’s Brexit movement – fell victim to the trend.

Canada has “debanked” hundreds of Canadian citizens in the past five years, a new report has revealed.

Since 2018, a major debanking wave has swept across Canada, affecting over 800 citizens so far.

The number includes hundreds of brave citizens who had risen up against the far-left government as part of the Freedom Convoy protests.

The data was unearthed through an access-to-information request by Blacklock’s Reporter.

The information unveiled a disturbing pattern where 837 individuals had their bank accounts shut down over a span of five years.

Most of those people to were debanked had disented from the Canadian government’s official agenda.


https://www.blacklocks.ca/more-than-800-de-banked/

It must be made a very serious crime for any bank to shut down customer accounts for political reasons.

It must be made a very serious crime for any bank to shut down customer accounts for political reasons.

For ANY reason other than crime. The banking system IS the financial, economic and payment system, period. Debanking is cash only. This means about 95% financially ruined. Can't borrow for a car, house and probably would effect many job prospects.
