Capital One Financial hit back on Friday against a lawsuit over its ⁠decision to close the Trump ⁠Organization’s bank accounts years ago, stating that it did so after a review by anti-money-laundering experts.

The disclosure marks the first time a bank has formally tied money-laundering concerns to Donald Trump’s family business. Capital One is seeking to dismiss the case by casting doubt on claims of illegally debanking – or denying services on religious or political grounds – the Trump Organization.

Capital One has never accused the Trump Organization of money laundering. But Friday’s filing argues that “documents and Plaintiffs’ own ‌allegations make clear that Capital One closed ‌Plaintiffs’ accounts for anti-money laundering (‘AML’) reasons.

“The closures were the result of months of analysis and a careful review by ‌Capital One’s AML team in accordance with bank policies and regulatory guidance.”

Capital One said in Friday’s filing that the Trump Organization’s allegations of political pretext were “misguided” and “based on cherry-picked quotations unsupported by the full context” of documents submitted to the court.

“The transaction patterns identified by Capital One are among the types of activity flagged by federal banking guidance,” the filing said.

Capital One gave notice of its plans to close more than 300 Trump-affiliated bank accounts in March 2021.

TOB Trump on line bank .

Bitcoin not accepted !

Amex and schwab seems like tge only US financial institutions that don't outsource their work to India and Phillipines.

I used capital one in college. It was horrible service then too.

No US voters care about any of this by the way. S&P just hit a new high today. Crude oil dropping. Opposition is hopeless

History.

Has happened to Trump before.

That's why they call it "his-story" 🤑

In confidential bank records investigated by Forensic News and also seen by Byline Times, Gazprombank sent $511 million in cash to DBTCA in October 2013 to be dispersed however the Russian bank directed just as Trump received loans from the subsidiary, DBTCA, totaling over $360 million.

Late 2013 was the time Donald Trump was visiting Moscow for his Miss Universe competition and beginning discussions about building a Trump Tower in the Russian Capital.

Fake News! Russia Russia Russia! I didn't know anything! It was someone else's fault! OK, I did it but it's not illegal! So what if it's illegal? I don't think about it very much. Yeah, what are you going to do about it? Shame if anything happens to your country's nice elections this fall. 😄

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a garbageman. After Trump that urge went away.
