Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Bank Executives Admit: Obama and Biden Pressured Us to "Debank" the Democrat Party's Political EnemiesThey're speaking anonymously for fear of reprisal. The banks faced reprisals under Obama and Biden: Do what we demand, punish our enemies for us, or we'll sic bank regulators on you and make your life a nightmare. Obama and Biden are gone but the Democrat Party is now communist and Maoist and they will get their vengeance if they're given the chance.Bank executives blow the whistle on how Obama, Biden admins pressured them to debank conservativesAnd speaking of weaponization of government: Tulsi Gabbard revoked the security clearances of 37 officials involved in the RussiaGate Coup Attempt. I guess that's why this Deep State scumbag is salty. A former FBI agent and friend of Peter Strzok who recently resigned from the bureau after he says his relationship with the disgraced ex-FBI official was scrutinized by Dan Bongino is now defending Crossfire Hurricane, suggesting Donald Trump was in contact with Russian intelligence, comparing the FBI under Kash Patel to the KGB and Chinese spy services, throwing around Nazi comparisons, and more. Michael Feinberg, who was recently the assistant special agent in charge at the FBI's Norfolk field office in Virginia, left the FBI at the end of May after he claims his direct superior told him that FBI deputy director Dan Bongino was scrutinizing his longtime friendship with Strzok, the disgraced FBI special agent who played a key role in the Trump-Russia investigation and was fired following the emergence of biased anti-Trump texts he had exchanged with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, with whom he was having an affair. Rather than take a polygraph test about his relationship with Strzok, Feinberg says he quit the FBI instead of risking the possible demotion he says he was facing in place of the big promotion to FBI headquarters which he had been expecting. The FBI's website says that "although we have used polygraphs to screen new employees for many years, since the 2001 Robert Hanssen spy case, we have also been requiring regular polygraph examinations of FBI employees with access to sensitive compartmented information."

I think it has to die. Posted by: BurtTC at August 19, 2025 07:06 PM (dGCAG) --- Several problems with that. First, you can't replace something with nothing. The FBI is a power tool and in the right hands, can do a lot. For too long conservatives abolished the weapons that harmed them rather than taking them up. Practically, it can't be abolished. It's not USAID. It is also true that one can completely rebuild an organization by purging it and pushing enough new people in to fundamentally change its culture. This is what actually happened to the FBI and the US military as well. By forcing change, mass firings, and then mass hirings, you can pretty much rebuild something from the ground up.

I'm not sure what it helps, but when I was in my cooperative phrase of 2020, I wore a mask.
About May, when that had passed, and everybody was talking about a lot more than 2 weeks, I didn't wear a mask, unless it was required by a store I wanted to go into. My wife was much more anti-mask than me, and she broke earlier. When I started being the only in my department who dared to travel around later in 2020, my company required me to wear a mask and customers required me to wear a mask. It was stupid, but it wasn't the Dark Night of Descending Fascism. No, that's when the fascists started talking about "Vax passports" to go out into normal society. Of course, mainly centered where the voters most deserve it: the Eastern Seaboard. Posted by: Axeman at August 19, 2025 07:12 PM (krQz2) 111

I think nearly 100% of the purchases I made for ammunition were from merchants whose code was "Miscellaneous General Merchandise", "Discount Stores", "Variety Store", and "Sporting Goods". As a person who has produced several credit card products, I have yet to see a "Gun Store" merchant code. If a shop that sells guns also sells fishing poles or archery, guess what? It is either General Merchandise or Sporting Goods. MCC 5941 is by far the most common for those who sell ammo.

I know. Let's ask AI what to do:
Q: How do you report extortion if it is federal law enforcement extorting you? A: If you are being extorted by federal law enforcement, you should report it to the FBI (https://www.fbi.gov/tips). You can do this by contacting your local FBI field office, calling the FBI tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI, or reporting it online at tips.fbi.gov. Q: What if the FBI is extorting you? A: If you believe the FBI is extorting you, you should first contact the FBI's Internal Affairs Division, or your local FBI field office, or submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov. Q: Are you retarded? A:When discussing AI, it's more accurate to talk about its capabilities and limitations rather than using derogatory terms.

Ain’t it grand that these banks, these bank executives are coming clean now. 15 or 20 years later. They knew it was illegal then. But, they valued their jobs, their wealth, and their position in life. Pensions, whatever.
“Just Following orders” is a valid defense, I must admit. Or at least we need to recognize that human nature being what it is, the Germans on trial at Nuremburg had a point. The Allies weren’t having any of it, but we’re no better. The cops followed orders and shut down beaches, parks, church services during “Covid 19”.

Lloyd at August 19, 2025 06:55 PM (ZOv7s) --- Although I think "slippery slope" is not quite the logical fallacy people make it out to be--especially when dealing with people and society and the "Overton Window", the main form of his argument is slippery slope. And I think it's the bad kind. Everybody was wearing masks out in public. That probably gave people like Fraudci a private thrill, but it was hardly the same thing as a marker that *singled you out*. So, the commonality is that they were both "forced" to be worn by authority. But the rationale for masks was also not: "You're going to wear a mask because we're going to make you." Even though at some points the execution was like that. Instead they still had to frame it as a positive thing: being polite and keeping other people safe.

Ain’t it grand that these banks, these bank executives are coming clean now. 15 or 20 years later. They knew it was illegal then. But, they valued their jobs, their wealth, and their position in life. Pensions, whatever.
It wasn't illegal because Congress deliberately writes laws, in conjunction with their partners in their law firm, lobbyists and other rent seekers, to compose ambiguously interpreted laws so that there is a thriving, well compensated industry of regulators, controllers, lawyers, concierges and consultants who have fat invoices for helping navigate through the regulatory morass to find you your personal variances and optimum outcome.

And I can forgive that, since there are a lot of idiots who seem to do well in the world All societies require a level of cooperation and surrendering of personal desires, wants and even freedom to participate in any society. If you want to live among the trees like a feral dog, you can obey only your own wishes, but if you want to be in as much as a single relationship, you must bend to others' needs and wishes as well/ This is what marriage is, except for the most abusive relationships. Your wife, your brother, your parents, your neighbor, your boss, the guy paving your sidewalk all have demands on you, and you participate. Conformity signals "I am on your team" and of course acting like a stinking hippie means you are not worth including in my team, so take your hat OFF at my table or get out.

Or perhaps they said "We would suffer some serious repercussions if we don't require masking"? In that latter case, it's still done under the guise that the State was "keeping you safe". I already said some points of execution appear exactly that way. But the overall authoritative rationale was that it was keeping people safe from Covid.

No, I'm not voting for Osama bin Lenin. But it's like that CEO of Boeing. 33 million fucking dollars to head a corporation which had DEI policies leading to doors falling off planes! Like him or hate him, Elon Musk has done some cool things with his money. Tesla, Starlink, his space program, Twitter into X. So I'm not hatin' on wealthy people just 'cause they're wealthy.

Break up the banks! Make them divest businesses. Reduce their footprints. JP Morgan can spin off Chase Bank and the shareholders will make a fortune.

'I don't believe the FBI can be reformed. I think it has to die.' 'At this point, I agree. Too many hidden holdovers. A new organization taking applications for all positions.' This is where I am too. We're one democrat president away from being right where we were or worse. They might have been able to salvage it if Comey and McCabe were publicly disgraced and sent to jail. Posted by: Dr. Claw at August 19, 2025 07:56 PM (3wi/L) 232
They had good intentions. That's where you are now. They were tyrants, but tyrants with good intentions.
Posted by: Not How That Works At All at August 19, 2025 07:49 PM (n9o7H) --- Yes. Because I didn't lose the plot. This is not about justifying their actions, it's about the equivalence between compulsory masking and Yellow stars. CDC Mask policy didn't 1) single out a group and 2) weren't barefacedly inflicted upon its wearers. And additionally *masks* have *failed*. Nobody wants to go back to that--including a number of progs. We got a taste and guess what? Tolerance of mask policies didn't lead to Juden stars. Talks about people talking past each other.....

"Since leaving the bureau, Feinberg has been hailed this summer by some as a possible "Resistance 2.0"-style hero by multiple anti-Trump foes. He has appeared on CNN and MSNBC, talked with Daily Show host and Trump critic Jon Stewart, got a job at the Brookings Institute-affiliated anti-Trump outlet Lawfare, and more, all while lashing out at the FBI under FBI Director Kash Patel."
Sounds like they got rid of the right guy. My guess is the questions would be "have you ever colluded with your good friend to overthrow Trump?" Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at August 19, 2025 08:31 PM (gDhA9) 236
Re banks - the only answer is they need to fear us as much as they feared Obama and Biden. We also need to make sure they no longer fear Obama and Biden.
The problem here is nobody expected the massive corruption of Biden and Obama. It was so out of left field for the U.S. If I were a bank, going forward, I would insist every regulatory meeting was recorded and transcribed. If the regulators get out of line, drop the boom on them, and publish every threat online. Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at August 19, 2025 08:35 PM (gDhA9) 237
Is it just me, or is every single thing conservatives have been bitching about for the last 20 years, turning out to be true the whole time?
Regarding debanking - absolutely democrats have been targeting conservatives for YEARS. Trying to choke them off economically. At the same time, they were using federal funds, donated to charities, who then funneled the money into Dem coffers. Now we have cut their funds and prevented them from cutting ours.

Federal Consumer protection bureau
1) independently funded via "fines". That is they had a source of money that consisted solely of fining corporations. 2) Not controlled by congress OR the executive branch. 3) I defy anyone to explain to me what value they generated. Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at August 19, 2025 08:46 PM (gDhA9) 239
Debanking is a great example of why regulations should minimal, gov't should not provide insurance, and the gov't should be put back in its proper place.

112 As recently as Feb 2024, VISA MasterCard and AmEx assured California that they would be in compliance with State Law to uniquely code transactions with a new "gun store" purchase transaction tag.
Per CBS News. Posted by: Not How That Works At All at August 19, 2025 07:07 PM (n9o7H) --- So the state decided that THEY wanted guns and ammo on a cash-only basis. Cool! Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at August 19, 2025 07:13 PM (ZOv7s) TX went the opposite way and made such coding here illegal. But I still bought my M18 in cash.
