A bogus lawsuit filed by the corrupt Malignant Fascist's legal team a few years ago against Capital One accused it of illegally de-banking the MF after his instigation of the January 6 seditious insurrection. Now, Capital One has responded by asking the court to toss out the suit, claiming that the MF's companies' accounts were closed after reviews raised red flags about money laundering. From Bloomberg:
"Capital One Financial Corp. said in a court filing late Friday that it closed accounts belonging to President Donald Trump's sprawling real estate company in 2021 for legitimate reasons after an internal review by the bank's anti-money laundering team.
The lender made the revelation in a filing asking a judge to toss out a Trump Organization lawsuit accusing it of illegally 'debanking' the president's company because of political discrimination following the assault on the Capitol by his supporters on Jan. 6, 2021.
Capital One, which denies discriminating against Trump's business, said the internal review was triggered by 'transaction patterns' that 'are among the types of activity flagged by federal banking guidance.' The bank said it's only making the anti-money laundering review public now as a result of the litigation.
The filing does not give details about the transactions at issue or accuse Trump or his company of wrongdoing. The decision to close the accounts was made as part of a process involving the lender's anti-money laundering professionals 'with decades of law enforcement experience,' the bank said." (our emphasis)
It wouldn't surprise us if it were disclosed that a number of those transactions were from the MF's friends in the criminal world and from his supporters in Russia.
It's always amusing when the MF's lawsuits backfire on him, with Capital One noting that the MF's suit forced the disclosure about the money laundering review as the reason for closing his accounts. In his zeal to extort money through lawsuits, his failures and criminality always surface.
