Among many worrying trends is the problem of debanking. It is underreported. The victims do not like to talk about it, even among family and friends. It is rarely discussed at all in public forums. Only specialists write about it. But it is a threat to everyone in the most intensely effective way. The practice denies people access to the basics of life and yet there is no appeal, no process, no methods of challenge, and no remediation. We did not know until Melania Trump’s latest biography that she and her son Barron were victims of debanking, the practice of shutting down a person’s bank account based on an unsigned and unexplained decision in which the account holder is merely notified that all services are hereby denied. Good on her for admitting this. People rarely do. This apparently happened in 2021, after her husband had left the office of the presidency. There were concerted efforts at the time to wipe out the memory of his time in office. Back in those days, I used the home assistant app called Google Home. I asked who the 45th president was and the product responded that it had no information on that. Indeed, it was like a scene from Orwell. Apparently Melania and Barron were also being deleted by their own bank. “I was shocked and dismayed to learn that my long-time bank decided to terminate my account and deny my son the opportunity to open a new one,” she wrote. The bank simply sends a letter and encloses the balance. The victim then has to hunt around for an alternative, now with the black mark of having been canceled by another bank, which raises real questions. The problem is compounded by the absence of any real reason for the actions. We do not know how widespread this practice is but, anecdotally, it has clearly escalated in recent years. The same has happened to the former president, and many of his supporters. There is no human right to have a bank account, and banks have every legal right to decide with whom they would like to do business. They can end client services for anyone at any time and have no legal obligation to explain or allow appeal. Banking services exert an incredible power over our lives. Our automatic payments keep the lights on, the mortgage paid up, and the cellphone going. The debit cards and credit cards hooked into them are the lifeblood of our living standards. Try to function even a day or two without them and you'd see what I mean. Having them suddenly cut off is like falling into the abyss. You can march down to bank headquarters and demand answers, but this much I promise you: You will get none. Probably no one there, not even the branch manager, has any answer. For whatever reason, the powers that be have decided that your account is not one they want and that is the end of it. There is no one to sue because no one did anything wrong. Granting banking services is at the discretion of the bank, period. There is a broader problem relating to the creation of social-credit systems around the world, most especially in China. Political compliance becomes a standard of inclusion in financial and social life generally. It’s a highly effective way that regimes can carefully and quietly control their citizens. It has no place in a free society, and it seems like our laws ought to be clear about that. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/future-debanking The Biden-Harris government’s Department of Agriculture is quietly reclassifying numerous property developers and other companies in what appears to be an effort to work around restrictions on Chinese land ownership near U.S. military bases and installations. The move comes despite continued warnings from the U.S. intelligence community and other agencies in the Biden-Harris government that China poses an increasing national security risk and is actively opposing U.S. interests through domestic and foreign counter-intelligence actions. ...in September, Walton Global—after an extensive lobbying campaign—convinced the Department of Agriculture to reclassify much of its U.S. landholdings as not being Chinese-owned. The decision comes even though Walton owns at least 14 properties with some degree of Chinese investment, all within 15 miles of a U.S. military base or installation. Concerningly, the company has even touted its proximity to American military sites in advertising campaigns aimed at Chinese investors. By now, most people have awakened to the reality that a huge percentage of the food sold in America is poisoning us. From artificial flavors and dyes to preservatives and additives, the food we’re consuming is likely responsible for an overwhelming number of the chronic health issues Americans face. Many of the ingredients we find in everyday foods sold in the United States have been strictly banned in other countries. Why then has our FDA not banned the ingredients that have been proven to be toxic to humans? That’s the question Glenn Beck answered in his special, "Make America Healthy Again: The Chemicals Poisoning Your Food EXPOSED!” The German Green-Left coalition government under Chancellor Olaf Scholz was infamous as a mere puppet of the Biden Regime. Now Scholz has fired his free-market Finance Minister, leading to the fall of the government in Berlin. “I have just asked the German President to release Finance Minister Christian Lindner,” Scholz said Wednesday evening in Berlin. “We need a functioning government, which is able to make the necessary policy decisions for our country.” What he means is that his dysfunctional government has ceased working. Even after veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh revealed in great detail the Joe Biden-Jake Sullivan plot to blow up the world’s biggest gas pipleline and cripple the German economy, Scholz said nothing... Now, the game is up. The coalition of Scholz’s Social Democrats, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock’s Greens and Christian Lindner’s Free Democrat is imploding. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/11/that-was-quick-pro-biden-german-government-collapses/ The Future Of Debanking:
