Bombshell report details exactly how banks worked with Biden officials to spy on pro-Trump Americans
Daily Mail ^ | 12/06/2024 | JON MICHAEL RAASCH, U.S. POLITICAL REPORTER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

The Biden administration has gotten banks to let them 'spy' on the everyday purchases and money transfers of Americans, carrying out millions of searches without getting a warrant typically required for such snooping, a stunning new Congressional report charges.

The House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government just released its damning findings, which the panel found skews heavily toward surveillance of Americans inclined to support President-elect Donald Trump.

'The federal government is spying on your bank account,' the Republican-led panel posted in a video on X summarizing its 47-page report.

...

Over 14,000 federal employees accessed that sensitive financial data in 2023 during which the subcommittee claims 3.3 million 'warrantless searches' were made.

...

The Biden administration worked with banks to comb through 'extremism' indicators like the purchase of a religious text, like a Bible, or searches including the terms 'MAGA' and 'TRUMP,' according to shocking revelations by the committee.

Bank of America, Chase, U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo, Citi Bank and Truist were all investigated in the probe looking to expose how the U.S. Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and the FBI worked together.

Charles Schwab, HSBC, MUFG, PayPal, Santander, Standard Chartered and Western Union were all also investigated.

That sounds like a Bond babe last name, like Moneypenny, or Goodhead, or Goodnight, or Onatop.

Well, well, well, nooooo kidding, really?

I wonder how much MORE money was spent?

Could it be as revealing as studying the “why snow is cold and water is wet “interface?””

And yet another “Bombshell” report ... to be placed on some old dusty shelf to be forgotten about.

Never any action, never anyone charged with wrong doing ... just another report from in the long line of investigative committees.

‘The federal government is spying on your bank account,’

After receiving this data, the FBI created an internal portal, where employees could search these typically private transactions and profiles could then be made on individual citizens of concern, like those who have shopped at Cabela’s or purchased a Bible, the panel claims.

You bet, just the regular ho-hum boring stuff.

Biden is going to have to issue thousands of pardons.

But according to my copy of “Black’s Law Dictionary” you have to be convicted first to receive a pardon.

Over the years I have purchased firearms and ammunition. I am a collector. Many times I used my credit card. Without doubt I am on the governments list of potential terrorists. I would suspect many Freepers are on the list just for being on Free Republic.

Our government has become The STASI!

It seems that Biden is ignoring that. Hunter's pardon included things that he was not convicted of and there's another one coming down the pike, can't think of the name right now, but it is someone that's never even been tried.

So there's another long-standing tradition/protocol that democrats are blowing up.
