Only keep in banks an amount you can afford to lose.

I would never have dreamed of this kind of tyranny.

When I saw the Canadian truckers dispossessed, I knew it was time to divest banks.

Went to look at ‘PJ Media’ and all I got was a bunch of grief, trying to prove I’m not a robot. They can go sit on a sharp stick!

I give it 24 months to get here.

If Trump doesn’t win, we’ve got serious problems.

Even if Trump wins we still have serious problems.

Deep State will likely still control Congress, SCOTUS, and the bureaucracy.

If Trump wins we will have won a major battle, but not the war.

It would be nice if the Swiss banks published a statement saying they would no longer cooperate in data sharing with governments that allow this.

The Swiss have been cooperating with the deep state for years. You think a Swiss bank account is protected from investigation?

Boris Johnson’s brother-in-law experienced weirdness in Mexico over being designated a “politically exposed person”

There appears to be an international body, Financial Action Task Force

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_Action_Task_Force

They’re the ones who appear to have counted the term “politically exposed person”.

https://www.fatf-gafi.org/en/publications/Fatfrecommendations/Peps-r12-r22.html#:~:text=A%20politically%20exposed%20person%20(PEP,such%20as%20corruption%20or%20bribery.

If you get on their list, then banks are subject to increased reporting requirements about you, and most banks don’t want the bother and risk.

Getting on the FATF blacklist is the financial equivalent of being on the no-fly list. And good luck finding out who put your name on the blacklist.

I have no sympathy for him. He knew this was happening to others years ago and did nothing because he didn’t want to align himself with those that it was happening to (Tommy Robinson, Katy Hopkins, ...). This is simply a case of “they came for the Jews but I wasn’t a Jew...”.

Now it comes after him. He was a fool to not see it coming and didn’t do something when he had more authority to do so.

Chase bank has done the same here. Of course this happened in Canada too. It’s happening all over the place. We should be raising this to every politician and demand they do something, otherwise, it’s going to be common practice once some ‘automatic connections’ are made across digital services. You won’t need to be prominent voice.

The permanent fix to all of this is to repeal the 17th Amendment. The uniparty the Deep state, the control by the party bosses is all built on the 17th Amendment

Remove the 17th Amendment and it puts a check in Balance back on the senate, removes the influence of the political parties, and it definitely takes away the control of the party bosses and lobbyists in Washington DC and places it to every state capital in the Union.

Our Founding Father’s were not stupid!

Perhaps like Operation Market Garden in 1944.

Nigel Farage is like an English Donald Trump. He is the Foe and enemy of the establishment both left and right and thus must be crushed as they are trying to do the same to Donald Trump.

it seems to be that Nigel’s Coutts account was shut down due to lack of funds.

Coutts – which has served every member of the royal family since George IV – requires customers to hold at least £3m in savings, or borrow or invest at least £1m with the bank.

NatWest offered Farage a standard account instead of his Coutts account, so they didn’t kick him out as NatWest is the owner of Coutts but Farage didn’t meet the criteria for a Coutts account anymore. Coutts is a hyper exclusive private bank - for multi-millionaires.

And he can’t claim he didn’t know — it’s right there on their website - https://www.coutts.com/become-a-client/private-form.html

“Clients are required to maintain at least £1m in investments or borrowing (mortgage), or £3m in savings.”
