The Office of the Comptroller of Currency has released the final report after investigating the banking practices of nine major institutions based on over 100,000 examples of banks refusing business based on politics and worldviews.
WASHINGTON—The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) today released a report of its findings from its supervisory review of debanking activities at the nine largest national banks it supervises: JPMorgan Chase Bank, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo Bank, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC Bank, TD Bank, and BMO Bank.
The OCC conducted its supervisory review in accordance with the President’s Executive Order, “Guaranteeing Fair Access to Banking for All Americans,” to determine whether these banks’ policies or practices may have required, encouraged, or otherwise influenced banks to deny or limit access to financial services to Americans because of their political or religious beliefs or lawful business activities. The OCC’s findings show that, between 2020 and September 2025, all nine banks had such policies.
“Today’s report provides irrefutable evidence that the nation’s largest banks have denied, debanked and discriminated against customers and lawful businesses,” said Comptroller of the Currency Jonathan V. Gould. “Americans should have access to financial services regardless of their beliefs, affiliations, or political views. Fair access to financial services is not a mantra—it is a mandate. The Trump Administration is committed to ending the weaponization of finance against hardworking Americans, once and for all.”
Well, well well… Interesting development. The conspiracy theorists were correct all along.
Four years after the attacks on the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea, one of the alleged perpetrators has to answer in court for the first time. The trial of Serhiy Kuznetsov began today in Hamburg, Germany.
During opening arguments, lawyers representing Kuznetsov informed the judge that he was acting on instructions given to him by the government of Ukraine when he led a team to detonate explosives on the Nord Stream pipeline.
GERMANY – According to the indictment, Serhiy K., together with other military personnel and on behalf of Ukrainian state agencies, is said to have developed the plan to destroy the natural gas pipelines running from Russia through the Baltic Sea to Lubmin in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. The aim was to prevent Russia from using revenues from the gas trade to finance the war of aggression.
Under the leadership of the accused, a commando consisting of several professional divers, a skipper and an explosives expert is said to have brought large quantities of high-performance military explosives into the waters off the Danish island of Bornholm on a sailing yacht chartered in Rostock. There, explosive devices equipped with time fuses were then attached to the gas pipelines running along the seabed.
When they were ignited on September 26, 2022, the two gas pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2 were severely damaged. There were a total of four leaks on three of the four lines.

Dr. David Morens, 78, served as a senior adviser to Anthony Fauci (Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) from 2006 through 2022. Morens sits at the epicenter of the NIAID coverup to hide the origins of COVID-19.
Today, Fauci’s Senior Advisor Dr. David Morens plead guilty to “Conspiracy to Commit Offenses and to Defraud the United States” in connection with his conspiring with Peter Danzak, President of EcoHealth Alliance, Dr Gerald Keusch, associate director at Boston University’s National Emerging Infectious Disease Laboratory Institute and a recipient of funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), together with others to defraud the public about NIH-funded gain-of-function research and the origin of COVID.
Morens and others plotted to conceal/destroy federal records re: COVID-19 and federal grants to avoid FOIA and the Federal Record Act. Morens admits to using his gmail account to intentionally defraud the U.S. government and conceal communication and records about his activities. In addition, Morens admits to receiving “gifts” of material value in exchange for his efforts on behalf of the co-conspirators.
The conspiracy involved a “kickback” scheme in which Morens accepted and was promised gifts – including bottles of wine and meals at Michelin-starred restaurants – in exchange for performing “official acts that were favorable” to his co-conspirators.
Apparently, Joe Biden revealed massive amounts of classified intelligence during a series of roughly three hours of recording done for his ghostwriter and biographer. The recordings are dated from November 2016 to April 2017.
The Oversight Project filed a lawsuit to gain the audio files and has uploaded them to YouTube. They are in reverse chronological order. The gaps in the audio are redactions due to classified information. LISTEN:

[Tweet Below: Samantha Power in Ukraine, October 2, 2024]
The essence of the reports is that Ukraine officials discussed a scheme to receive money from USAID, essentially from the CIA, then launder the money through fake Ukraine ‘clean energy programs’ using various front groups, eventually culminating with the money being transferred to the Joe Biden reelection effort. That’s the gist of the report.
However, as much as this story is of great interest to me, for reasons outlined below, there are multiple red flags which should indicate serious caution needs to be applied.
First red flag. Every single report about the issue links back to the original John Solomon report, written mostly by Jerry Dunleavy. [SEE HERE]. There is no follow-up reporting from any other outlet or source on this exceptionally explosive claim.
Second red flag. Despite the report centering around a “declassified intelligence intercept” under review by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, there is no citation for the interpretation of the information itself. There is no visibility into a declassified report, which if genuinely declassified would be easy to share with readers.
The absence of citation for the core claim, while simultaneously stating the information has been declassified, is a significant flag. This type of reporting relies on the reader accepting the interpretation of the author who chooses -without saying why- to keep it hidden.
Third red flag. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has not commented on the declassified originating information, nor on the reporting or interpretation of it by Solomon. This is not to say the reporting itself is inaccurate, but simply to note that no one is going on the record to substantiate it; and again, the information is hidden.
Fourth red flag. If the core information was accurate, it would be attacked (spun and shaped) in a defensive posture by the leftist media who have direct contacts with allied intelligence officials who would know about it. When an explosive IC claim is ignored by leftist media (NYT, WaPo, Politico, et al) generally that means they want to see the narrative advance or be emphasized. This posture of advancement is generally made when information is being wrongly interpreted, and that plays positively toward their interests.
Yesterday, President Trump announced his intention to nullify any Joe Biden document signed by autopen, that did not carry cognitive understanding of Biden. [SEE HERE]
The House investigation into the White House handlers of Joe Biden, now takes focus.
“As part of the Oversight Committee’s investigation into The Biden Autopen Presidency, Chairman James Comer and Committee staff conducted transcribed interviews with several of Joe Biden’s former senior aides and advisors. […] Their testimony revealed that President Biden’s cognitive deterioration was real, visible, and widely discussed inside the West Wing.
Witnesses further confirmed that critical executive actions and even presidential pardons were executed without Biden’s direct authorization, signed instead by an autopen. Several aides confessed they did not know who was approving or controlling its use.” WATCH:
President Donald Trump is pushing hard against the boundaries of what the media can absorb. In a Truth Social post earlier today, President Trump notes that any document signed by autopen without the cognitive affirmation of Joe Biden is nulled.
This could have serious ramifications; however, I’m not sure how it could be enforced.
President Donald Trump – “Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect. The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States. The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Following the news that National Guardswoman Sarah Beckstrom had died from her injuries, President Trump was not in the mood to listen to DC media pontificate about millions of illegal aliens and refugees who have been flooded into the United States.
Sarah Beckstrom was a 20-year-old West Virginia guard member who was murdered in an ambush-style shooting near the White House on Wednesday. She had volunteered to work the Thanksgiving holiday so that service members with children could spend time with their family. Beckstrom was the BEST OF US, and President Trump is visibly angry about her murder.
Following the videoconference with members of the armed forces serving overseas, President Trump took questions from the traveling press pool. Things got heated when the sympathetic media claimed the Afghan terrorist who murdered Beckstrom was brought into the US in 2021 by Joe Biden and given legal refugee status following his work with the CIA.
