PNC Bank ends business relationship with Donald Trump Jr's MxM News app company 'without cause'
Fox News ^ | March 2, 2023 | Brooke Singman

PNC Financial Services Group Inc. abruptly terminated its business relationship with the news aggregation app company launched last year by Donald Trump Jr. and former Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich, Fox News Digital has learned, which the company called the latest move by "woke corporations" to silence conservatives.

MxM News was founded and launched last year by Trump Jr. and Budowich to compete with apps that aggregate news content for readers, like Apple News, Google News and others that conservatives have accused of censorship. The parent company of MxM News is ROCDIGITAL, LLC.

"After being told to call a generic help line, I was informed by the PNC representative that per the terms and conditions, PNC reserves the right to re-evaluate their business relationships at any time and terminate accounts without cause," Budowich said.

I remember the good old days when banks were interested mainly in making money, not punishing people for being conservatives.

Are there any conservative banks to switch to? I’m at PNC since they bought BBVA. I wasn’t happy, but there are only two banks in my town. I may have to go online.

Glad I didn’t sign up with PNC despite their claims of offering great customer services.

Seems like a decent business opportunity for an enterprising conservative. Actually, lots of business opportunities for those that want to take the risk, given all the wokesterism taking place.

Banks ONLY care about money.

Don’t kid yourself.

Trump is poison in the mass media markets.

I’m more interested to see if we can give them second thoughts. I’m calling my branch with questions in the morning.

Try a credit union.

I have PNC and just signed up for “old glory”. Looks like a waiting list similar to Coign credit card which I’ve had for several months now. I’m tired of these freaking woke idiots claiming they’re for coexisting while they destroy our lives.

A few weeks back there was a story about a conservative oriented bank being set up in Oklahoma. Can’t remember the name, only that it was one of the state’s oldest banks and was offering nation wide services.

Apparently the site is only a news aggregatedator. Let that sink in. How fascist.

I have a credit score of 814 and the best interest rate I can get from Coign is 15.99. I’ll pass thanks.

Same here but we don’t carry balances. Also, I’m tired of everything being political including these companies.

Me either, if I can’t pay it off at the end of the month I don’t use it.
