Debanking

Evidence of Debanking Conservatives Surfaces, with Agency Pledging to End it

pgnewser December 18, 2025

The practice of debanking, of cancelling the bank accounts by undesirables for political and/or religious reasons has been called a myth by the left and denied by the banks accused of doing it. The targets are almost always conservative and/or Christian, with a healthy dose of gun supporters thrown in there for good measure.

Now, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has confirmed debanking of non-leftists occurred in 9 banks, which are U.S. Bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, Citibank, Capital One, PNC Bank, TD Bank, and BMO Bank. The Comptroller, Jonathan V. Gould, said, “The OCC is committed to ending efforts – whether instigated by regulators or banks – that would weaponize finance. Although our work continues, the OCC is today providing visibility into the debanking actions against customers and lawful businesses taken by the nation’s

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has confirmed what many of us have known for years — multiple major banks displayed bias in their financial censorship.

The OCC issued a press release yesterday announcing the results of its preliminary investigation into nine banks regarding their practices of restricting, cutting off, or imposing extra burdens on certain customers. Donald Trump and many of his prominent supporters have suffered financial censorship in recent years, as have companies and whole industries despised by leftists.

Financial giant Citi is finally admitting that they have been de-banking conservatives and is now promising to stop the discriminatory practice.

For years Citi was summarily closing the accounts of conservatives — especially if they support the Second Amendment. And, while the company spent years lying and claiming they were not targeting conservatives, now they are admitting to the nefarious practice and have pledged to stop doing it.

This comes as the Trump administration had begun to investigate financial services for discriminating against conservative customers.

“We will update our employee Code of Conduct and our customer-facing Global Financial Access Policy to clearly state that we do not discriminate on the basis of political affiliation in the same way we are clear that we do not discriminate on the basis of other traits such as race and religion,” the bank said in a statement.

“We also will no longer have a specific policy as it relates to firearms. Our U.S. Commercial Firearms Policy was implemented in 2018 and pertained to sale of firearms by our retail clients and partners. The policy was intended to promote the adoption of best sales practices as prudent risk management and didn’t address the manufacturing of firearms.”

President Trump lobbed criticism at Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan on Thursday, as he accused the bank of discriminating against conservative voters.

Trump appeared virtually during the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos-Klosters, Switzerland, where Moynihan, the head of the second-largest bank in the U.S. by assets, was sitting on a panel of executives.

The criticism came after Moynihan asked Trump how he planned to balance a wave of executive orders with his “clear focus” on goals such as stock-market growth and a strong bond market.
