‘Rather Despicable’: John Eastman Speaks Out After Bank Of America, USAA Shut Down His Accounts
Daily Caller ^ | Reagan Reese

Posted on 04/17/2024 3:10:25 AM PDT by joesbucks

John Eastman, once an attorney for former President Donald Trump, was de-banked twice in the span of several months by two prominent financial institutions, Bank of America and USAA, he told the Daily Caller. His accounts were closed as he faced substantial backlash for his work advising Trump around the time of the 2020 election.

Interesting. Bank of America alerted Eastman in September of 2023 that it would be closing his accounts, a letter obtained by the Daily Caller shows. Shortly thereafter, USAA notified Eastman in November that his two bank accounts with the company would be closed, a separate letter shows.

I’ve been with USAA since 1980.

Except car insurance. I switched to GEICO years ago, saving close to $2,000 a year on a policy covering five cars.

I hear Old Glory Bank is anti-ESG.

Just got a notification that my homeowner’s insurance will be increasing for next year from $1650 to $7100 with Progressive - never had a claim, nothing.

F-ing liberals.

And, yes, we are switching.

“Did the FIB drive those actions?”

Very likely. More likely with USAA than with Bank of America.

Last year I changed my auto insurance company because of their USG entanglement. USAA was the only one that I was able to find that was not flying the Globalist ESG flag.

So, it is probably not bank regulators doing this.

But either way, this is no longer the USA.

The cabal runs DC.

I’ve got to reconsider. I have had a USAA account for approx 45 years.

I’m inclined to cancel it and let the CEO know why.

It’s not fascism if private companies are doing it on behalf of government.

Oh, wait, it is.

Is this anti ESG or KYC requirements that weren’t met after he became a public figure?

Once you become covered by KYC requirements life is tougher when it comes to banking

I’m beginning to wonder if these home insurance companies have been taken over by the “You will own nothing” crowd. That is, the price hikes are agenda-driven, rather than being based in economic reality.

Red states need to pass laws preventing de-banking. Unless someone shows themselves to be a credit risk, it should be illegal for banks to discriminate against them for provision of services. If a bank is found to have done so, there need to be very very stiff fines right from the start eventually leading to a total ban on that bank doing business anywhere in the state if it continues.

That would get their attention real fast. Imagine BofA being shut out of Florida.....or Texas......or a coalition of 8-9 smaller states. That would be absolutely devastating. They would have no choice but to back down.

Progressive is ripoff

Auto policies for two vehicles, progs wanted $1590 for six months.
State farm $635 for the exact same coverage.

Boat policy, progs wanted $960 for one year.
State farm $325 for the exact same coverage.

USAA? I have been a member for almost 60 years. If true, I will send a letter requesting an explanation as to why Eastman was terminated from services. I am certain a majority of USAA members are unaware of it.

Auto insurance rates just went postal for me. I suspect there’s a certain
amount of wanting to force people out of their cars behind it.

I’m now paying around $4,200 a year for two older vehicles. I need to
check the terms also, because if I read it right, I’m limited to about 2,200
miles per year.
