Pretty sure it’s illegal for them to knowingly finance terrorists. The egregious pardons don’t change the facts of the matter at the time of Jan 6, it was an armed insurrection which resulted in loss of life and property.
- I thought the people doing the insurrecting were supposed to be Antifa, why would Trump pardon them?
- It wasn't an insurrection because they had an Uno reverse card

Never thought I'd support Capital One but they should Counter Sue the U.S. for $486 billion dollars (their net worth) for attempting to put them out of business while they were performing business according to the rules and regulations put in place by the U.S. government. If money is all that matters to them, mine as well hit them there.

LET THE FREE MARKET DECIDE!
WAIT! NOT LIKE THAT!

How’s that republican support going for you Capitol One?

Reminds me of Farage getting de-banked.
It was later revealed that Farage's account was closed in part as Coutts felt that his beliefs and values did not align with theirs. In an internal dossier, Coutts wrote that he "is at best seen as xenophobic and pandering to racists" and considered a "disingenuous grifter".

"My dad is the president!"

something something free market and capitalism

Likely to settle so the DOJ allows their acquisition of Discover to go through.
- Discover is about to get ruined and have their call centres moved from the US to India.
