AND they had concerns about the financing of terrorism.
TheWeebleWobler
But why would such an honest man need to launder money?
SilverDust133
It’s was?!

It would have been nice of Cap One to inform the FBI, non? But the rich protect the rich, again. And again.
walterPPK
The story is true except they aren’t the first. Deutsche Bank also flagged Trump Organisation’s money laundering years ago.

Called it
CallMeMcGyver
Don't worry they all have prepared sanitized headlines that make it seem like a nothing-burger in case it gets traction or blows up... "Capital One Disagrees With Trump Over Nature Of Accounts" or some whitewashing shit like that... the headlines should read "Trump's Criminal Enterprise Caught Committing Yet Another Huge Financial Crime", but no, they'll all make it sound like a silly misunderstanding instead another Felony.

Understanding there has been no conviction, be nice if an added line said "will there be an investigation into this finding?"
wejustdontknow
There's that word "should" again. Seems like what we all think needs to happen differs from what is happening quite a lot.

Al Capone was imprisoned for tax evasion, correct? There must be something that will stick.

If ever there was proof that the devil exists and buys souls, it's that Trump can do whatever the fuck he wants, from money laundering to running scam businesses to raping children, and suffers no consequences.
ninjarabbit
If ever there was proof that god isn't all-powerful, all-knowing and all-caring, it's that Trump [copy paste trump behavior]
clonedeeznuts
This would be an outrage to a society that didn't worship money
psmith00
it should be much bigger news but there's nothing surprising about it. it's just another facet of the Crime Family running America at the current time.
but, really, 300+ accounts? what else are you doing with 300+ accounts except pushing the money around and around so its actual origin gets lost in the shuffle. and the won't be named trump-1, trump-2, ..., trump-300. they'll all have special business names to make them look like independent businesses.
Cornchip2000
Capital One also stated that it was because of potential fraud and funding of terrorists
5NoteHalf
It SHOULD be big news but - and I need you all to FULLY understand this - his worshippers DO. NOT. CARE. He was right about one thing. He could shoot someone in the middle of the street and nothing would happen. ....I call hacks.

Remember, he’s been impeached twice already. His sycophantic Senators in the GOP refused to convict.🤷🏾♂️

I was quite pleased to see that USA Today ran this two days in a row on their online version, with a tagline that they were flagged during a money laundering review.

On a scale of one to ten - one being his insistence that the reflecting pool was vandalized and ten his being a convicted felon - where would you rate trump's money laundering?
LeighCosmosVillain
7, I’d say three but massive white collar crime that collapses the economy actually gets followed up on sometimes. So maybe it’ll collectively you decided that it is bad.
REOJackwagon
More laundry than Whirlpool, probably 12
powwerbottom
Considering that the reflecting pool redo was quite possibly also a money-laundering scheme he set up for his felon contractor friend, it's all a drop in the bucket compared to the pedophilia and election fraud

honestly? for Dems to quit being doormats for criminals. & now, America is screwed for 50 years 'cause guess what? Supreme Court judges are Republicans/conservatives thanks to GOP/Trump

If trump bent a 10 year old girl and anally raped her on the Resolute Desk, Evangelicals would take that as a sign from God He is cool with that.

You can vote your way into fascism, but you always end up having to shoot your way out. Every time.

Guess that rules out Americans.

Looks like it.

You basically have to shame republicans into not existing anymore. But they're ok with raping kids, so shaming them is not going to not work out. You'll need some other method to remove them.

PatrickDenStore
Actually voting.
WhyDontYouMakeMe
We'll need to be a little more intensity than just a vote to purge the systems that let this happen. We need to demand accountability from our government, and loudly
PatrickDenStore
You're in this shit because people didn't vote and accepted fascism for the USA. I know it's a lot to ask of Americans to actually vote but I believe in you, you can do it. THEN you can demand accountability and realise that you fucked up in 2016 to the point where Trump is immune. Good job, you fucked yourselves twice.
Frankasti
They think the government should have auto-regulated itself. I don't know what to think anymore. At this point I think Americans are fucking dumb... They want democracy, but they want it automated with an anti-evil system, idk how they imagine it works... "[...] to purge the systems that let this happen."
somethingdark
Okay, elections are in November. What do you want us to do until then?
PatrickDenStore
Vote in primaries, help out with their campaigns, run for office... Anything you can do.
WhyDontYouMakeMe
Badger your representatives about accountability
Zamiel77
Voting is the beginning. The bare-minimum. A simple, unremarkable, and expected duty, no different from paying your taxes or brushing your teeth. But voting is no longer enough because Democracy itself is compromised, and it will take more than voting to not only start righting some of these wrongs, but building something actually worth being proud of.
PatrickDenStore
Biden won in 2020 because people voted, Trump won in 2024 because people did not. This is REALLY fucking simple, how about you try it?
Zamiel77
I vote every year, in every local, state, and federal election. I'm just not operating under any delusion that voting is some sort of panacea for the diseased, rotten state we find ourselves in. You are a fool if you think voting will change the status quo in America in any meaningful way in of itself.
PainWright
If you are from the US? Rich people fearing that YOU will do something that will make them personally pay the price if they don't stop.
Since the reaction to "ice publicly executing protesters on camera" was some social media posts, peaceful protests, and strongly worded letters...
I'd say the US is fucking doomed until those who complain online stop fenty folding in the corner and do something.
Nukls
not gonna lie...

The US still hopes we can vote our way out of this.
Italy had to starve before they killed Mussolini.
Berlin had to be captured before Hitler became An Hero.
And Franco lived a long fascist life and died from illness at 82.
America is not yet starving. You’re not going to see Trump get Mussolinied soon.
But Trump is a decrepit old man and will be 82 in 2028.
We’re hoping he gets Francoed.
PainWright
I dunno, I question if you won't end up with (as Hitchen's put it) a Necrocracy.
Declare Trump president for life, he dies, they just don't say anything and keep going.
The trial run with Mitch is going quite well for them.
M4UsedRollout
Yeah, I bet if Trump kicks it before 2027, they’re going to AI puppet his likeness until at least January 21st

They're Canadian, so no. They're just gonna scream at us to do something very helpfully. Nevermind that organization is a skill most of us never learned and are still actively trying to learn and put into practice in real time while our friends and neighbors get disappeared at gunpoint.
Their role in this is to tell Anne Frank to get out of her attic and go shoot some Nazis.
Slonato
There's plenty you can do. You aren't hiding in an attic. I've already been banned from reddit for making these lists, how about you go defend your democracy instead of being mad at people
SquashDemon
See my other responses, I am doing things. I'm also trying to help others learn how to do things too. We're still a small group in my area, but not a single one of us joined because some extranational jerk called them a coward.
Again, we're not a monolith. Sure, many of us can be doing more, but there are those of us who are doing everything we can with what we have.
Y'all can kick us while we're down as much as you like, it won't help, and it won't make you feel any better either.
Slonato
How'd waiting peacefully go for Anne Frank again?
SquashDemon
"Anne Frank deserved it for not resisting hard enough" is definitely one of the takes of all time.
kyro
Oh. I didn't realize @painwright was being a haughty armchair general with zero skin in the game.
"Come on, do a Civil War already" isn't a very neighborly take.
PainWright
You country is currently funding politicians in Canada (foreign election interference is illegal), civil division seeking to separate Alberta (because oil), breaking free trade agreements, threatening to annex Canada, and betraying NATO allies to Russia among others.
My neighbourly take is: Civil disobedience isn't civil war you willing cuck. Grow a set, and get your shit in order you spineless coward.
(Also nice stalking me, your alt accounts are obv as fuck because... you are a coward.)
SquashDemon
The guy blocked me. I guess it was too much to ask for them to see us as human beings.
SquashDemon
To be fair, they're just as frightened and angry as we are, the president did in fact threaten their country and has launched hostilities against others. It's a reasonable fear of a situation they have no control over. What they can control is their conduct online with people who should be their ideological allies, and so that's where they lash out.
It's not victim-blaming to them because they don't see us as victims. Just a monolithic state exhibiting the goomba fallacy.
