Conservative businesses had their bank accounts shut down, without
warning by the Democrats. No day in court, no trial, just boom and they
were shut down.
Really? Please list them.

Bank Targeting Conservatives Shutting Down Accounts | My Fellow Patriots
After careful consideration, we decided to close your credit cards on
September 18, 2021, because continuing the relationship creates possible
reputational risk to our company.

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Woke Bank of America shut
down the account of a conservative Christian charity that helps orphans
in Uganda while telling people that “religious beliefs are not a factor
in any account-closing decision.”
Indigenous Advance Ministries, a non-profit that is based in Memphis,
Tenn., filed a complaint to the state attorney general’s office after it
became concerned that the bank closed its account because the bank
disagreed with the non-profit’s “religious views,” the Daily Mail reported.
The organization has had a bank account with Bank of America since 2015.
On its website, the non-profit unapologetically stated that people who
work for the organization are Christian, pro-life — from conception to
natural death — and oppose same-sex relationships.
Bank of America sent a letter to the non-profit on Apr. 24, 2023, in
which the bank said that the accounts of the organization were being
shut down within 30 days.
“Upon review of your accounts, we have determined you’re operating in a
business type we have chosen not to service at Bank of America,” the
bank wrote.

Banks seem to be shutting down the accounts of conservatives for no
apparent reason other than ideological disagreement, and Chase Bank
might be the worst offender.
Shortly after former State Department ambassador for religious freedom
Sam Brownback founded the National Committee for Religious Freedom —
dedicated to defending the free exercise of religion in the public
square — Chase closed the organization's accounts without explanation.

Chase Bank is shutting down accounts of people and organizations with
controversial political views, according to an undercover investigation
by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas.
O’Keefe’s latest probe found that Chase, without explanation, abruptly
closed the account of a political activist that had existed for 15 years
in good standing.
Enrique Tarrio, chairman of the Proud Boys activist group and owner of a
website that sells provocative political merchandise, spoke to Chase
representatives who could not explain why his business account was about
to be terminated.
Tarrio recorded the calls and provided them to Project Veritas.
Chase banker Marcel Smith told Tarrio: “I see nothing that indicates any
reason why the account should be closed. I don’t see any outstanding
transactions or anything ridiculous.”
Smith noted that his bank typically gives its customers a reason for
account closures.
“I’ve never seen them not give a response to someone whose account they
had closed,” the Chase employee said.
But Project Veritas followed up and spoke with an employee working in
Chase Corporate Global Media Relations who acknowledged the bank makes
political judgments about its customers.
JOURNALIST: I don’t want to do business with anyone who does business
with Steve Bannon, or any of these alt right people, and that’s just one
of my prerequisites.
CHASE: Right, right. As far as I’m concerned, we’re not connected with
Steve Bannon.
JOURNALIST: Do you have standards in place that would preempt such
relationship with anyone, um of Steve Bannon’s –
CHASE: Oh definitely. Definitely, definitely.
JOURNALIST: That’s what I’m calling to inquire about. Tell me more.
CHASE: Right so I mean, Chase is not involved with any like, you know,
alt right people or anything. I really can’t name names but it’s
basically like we don’t get involved with any of that …
JOURNALIST: … I don’t expect for you guys, I’m not talking about who you
guys give money to –
CHASE: No, just any business relationships, period.
JOURNALIST: Really? OK. … So I mean on my end I’m talking about people
like Trump supporters for instance. The MAGA, whatever – make, whatever
the hell they, those types of people, I mean individuals –
CHASE: Right, right. I know what you mean, but like I said the call is
being recorded, monitored, so I can’t get too political. And say I don’t
support these people, or this, but you know, any kind of business
entity, people like that, no moral character or anything like that, the
bank usually doesn’t get involved with that.
O’Keefe noted that some of the politically related merchandise Tarrio
sells on his 1776.shop website is “quite offensive.”
“Nevertheless, if obscene words on T-shirts cause people to lose their
bank accounts, Chase should be honest about it,” he said in a video
released by Project Veritas.
Tarrio told Project Veritas he’s observing a pattern.
“First we get silenced on social media, which is a new public square.
Then PayPal. And then I get debanked,” he said.
“It’s a very dangerous trend.”
