New White House Order Could Punish Banks for Dropping Customers Over Beliefs

The Biden administration just dropped a regulatory bombshell—banks could now face consequences for cutting ties with customers based on ideological grounds. No more silent debanking under the guise of 'risk management.'

Here’s what’s changing:

• New executive order puts banks on notice: political or religious bias in client selection won’t fly.

• Regulatory hammer could fall on institutions that practice 'woke banking'—because apparently, even finance has culture wars now.

• Expect lawsuits, lobbying frenzies, and the usual Wall Street gymnastics to circumvent the rules.

One thing’s certain: when banks start getting treated like social media platforms, you know the financial system’s priorities have officially jumped the shark.
