'Inappropriately debanking me': Trump threatens lawsuit against JPMorgan over post-Jan 6 banking ban
The Economic Times
Donald Trump announced plans to sue JPMorgan Chase, alleging improper account closure following the January 6th Capitol protest.Summary
Former President Donald Trump stated he intends to file a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase in the coming weeks, claiming the bank “incorrectly and inappropriately debanked” him after the January 6, 2021, Capitol protest. Trump also vehemently denied a Wall Street Journal report that he had offered JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon the position of Federal Reserve chair, calling the claim “totally untrue” and criticizing the newspaper for publishing the story without seeking comment. He asserted that no such offer was ever made. This announcement combines a legal threat with a direct refutation of a published report, highlighting Trump’s ongoing disputes with media outlets and financial institutions.
