US EditionTrump says he’s suing Chase over allegedly debanking him over Jan. 6
Trump alleges JPMorgan Chase closed his accounts due to political pressure after Jan. 6 Capitol riot and plans to sue within two weeks, claiming improper debanking.
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump said he will sue JPMorgan Chase within two weeks, alleging the bank 'debanked' him after January 6, 2021 and gave him 20 days to move millions.
- Regulators reportedly warned JPMorgan Chase that keeping President Donald Trump could create compliance or appearance risks, while the bank denies closing accounts for political reasons and Trump Jr. said last year the family faced big-bank service difficulties.
- The Wall Street Journal cited unnamed White House sources saying the offer was discussed, but President Donald Trump denied the report Wednesday and Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan CEO, called it a joke.
- The Wall Street Journal and JPMorgan Chase did not immediately respond to requests for comment, while Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan CEO, addressed political 'debanking' claims in January 2024.
- Amid rising pressure on the Federal Reserve, this dispute feeds into debates over central-bank independence as the Justice Department opened a criminal probe and subpoenaed the Fed on Jan. 9, while President Donald Trump’s executive order on 'debanking' frames the policy debate.
