Capital One says it closed Trump Organization accounts over money-laundering concerns

Capital One has informed a court that it is seeking to permanently dismiss a lawsuit filed by Trump-affiliated businesses. The bank claims that the closure of hundreds of accounts in 2021 was due to a months-long internal review related to money laundering concerns, rather than any connection to the January 6th Capitol riot. Capital One argues that the lawsuit lacks merit and that its actions were based on standard compliance procedures. The case highlights ongoing legal tensions between financial institutions and high-profile individuals, particularly those associated with former President Donald Trump.
