The country's largest bank has cut ties with a Missouri conservative group, forcing an event that had been set to feature Donald Trump Jr. to be immediately canceled.

The December 3 St. Charles, Missouri, event featuring the son of former President Donald Trump was organized by the conservative Defense of Liberty political action committee. WePay, a payment processor owned by JPMorgan Chase, had reportedly been used to handle the event's ticket transactions...

I cancelled my Bank of America account because of their support for gun grabbing and told them exactly why I would no longer do business with them. The same goes for Chase and Citi.

Soon could be anywhere from weeks to decades.

If we had an opposition party every municipality controlled by it would be pulling their funds from these Chase bankster fascists. Sadly, we do not.

If Trump gets back into office, he needs to play smash mouth. Move the Federal agencies all over the country. Send the FBI to Alaska. FBI agents quit instead of move? Great, a win!


Trump did the opposite while in office. He funded a brand new $2 billion swamp HQ for the FIBBERS.

Can’t somebody else handle transactions?
I hope they sue the crap out of them for their “Alleged” actions!

Banks are akin to utilities. They also work with the US Government. This should not be permitted. It won’t end though, as no one wants to say they are pro-hate.

Use a state-chartered non-Federal Reserve bank or credit union (all CU’s are non-Federal Reserve)...here is the bank list...look for “SNM”(”State Chartered Non-Member”):

I really don’t think he understood the depth of the swamp at the beginning.

Were I younger and confronted with such forces, I would organize with a handful of close associates and make The Godfather seem like a choir boy.

There is probably a good bit of that getting started in the background right now.

This article says the bank has since reversed its decision and will reinstate the account.

I paid off in full, my credit card, NEVER again to use Chase. I have not purchased anything from Amazon since Jan. 6th, no Woka Kola and not Delta, United or Starbucks. I go to the local independent, Mom and Pop stores. Goodbye McDonalds, Facebook I am NOW free.

Umm…not a lawyer, but my hunch (based solely on their excuse in the report) is no for libel. They might have a case for damages due to lost income.

At the most expensive reported ticket price ($250), $30,000 in refunds is 120 tickets, at the $75 ticket price, that’s 400 lost sales. That’s an injury that deserves compensation from WePay. And the refunds went to the back to individual purchasers, not the sponsoring organization.

This doesn’t compensate the sponsor for outlays for preparation and production of conference-related materials, related promotions, etc., etc. Also there is the injury of waiting until now to cancel thereby making it impossible to find another online payment service and forcing the cancellation of the event.

Defamation may come in because they alleged a violation without specifics but cited a portion of their terms of service that, by implication, ties the sponsor to controversial activities.

The left realized they could not destroy the bill of rights so instead they took over private institutions and gained monopolies so you could not function in normal life and you could not fight them because they are a “private business”

We won't make it decades like this. Lucky if we even make it to 2022, never mind 2024.

Certainly there are alternatives to WePay.

I’m sure they’ve rooted out all BLM, antifa and Muslim accounts, too, so it’s all good.

Don’t think, FOR A MINUTE, that the execs at Chase came up with this out of the blue - it doesn’t, they’re too busy trying to run a business. The question is “Who pressured them?” That’s what needs to be investigated.

You got to hand it to them, not only did they do that, but they found enough IDIOT REPUBLICANS to support it, like Rand Paul, who was perfectly fine with being censored by Twitter, since it’s a ‘private company’. Well, Bayer was a private company when they made the Zyklon gas used to kill 6 million Jews. Is Rand cool with that also?

Exactly. Boycott JPMorgan Chase.

It may not seem important, but it will make a difference when we all do it.
