Capital One bank has asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit from the Trump 
Organization over the closure of hundreds of bank accounts back in 2021, arguing 
in new papers that the shutdowns were the product of a monthslong 
anti-money-laundering review — not retaliation for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, as 
the Trump family businesses have claimed.

In a motion to dismiss the case filed Friday in a Florida federal court, Capital 
One's lawyers wrote that the bank's own filings and the Trump businesses' 
allegations "make clear that Capital One closed Plaintiffs' accounts for 
anti-money laundering ('AML') reasons."

The bank said the decision followed "months of analysis and a careful review" by 
its financial-crimes team, which it said was staffed by employees with "decades 
of law enforcement experience." But the filings suggest the Trump Organization 
and affiliated entities were given no opportunity to address any 
money-laundering or compliance concerns before the accounts' closures.
[...]
The Trump Organization alleges Capital One moved to distance itself from Donald 
Trump after the Capitol riot and that the bank's cited anti-money-laundering 
rationale was invented after the fact to cover for that decision.

Capital One has flatly denied those assertions, with its lawyers arguing in the 
new filing that the Trump's theory rests on "cherry-picked quotations 
unsupported by the full context" of the bank's own records, and that nothing in 
the complaint shows the anti-money-laundering explanation was a cover story.
[...]
Beyond disputing the facts, Capital One has reiterated in the new court filing 
it had the right to close any account "at any time, for any or no reason and 
without notice" — language the Trump companies do not dispute.

The presiding judge, Roy Altman, had already dismissed an earlier version of the 
lawsuit in March on similar grounds, ruling that a bank's reason for closing an 
account under that kind of open-ended contract clause generally cannot be 
second-guessed in court.
[...]
Capital One's attorneys say the bank had no obligation to explain itself in the 
first place, and separately argue that federal banking-secrecy law would have 
barred it from disclosing internal anti-money-laundering findings even if it 
wanted to.

Trumpstein and his two failsons are money launderers. This comes as a surprise 
to no one.
