AG Sessions says he'll stop this operation. This would be good

I Wonder if this is why all those porn stars & companies were getting their bank accounts closed, remember that?

Operation Choke Point

Operation Choke Point is an initiative of the United States Department of Justice that was announced in 2013,[1] which is investigating banks in the United States and the business they do with payment processors, payday lenders, and other companies believed to be at higher risk for fraud and money laundering.

This operation, disclosed in an August 2013 Wall Street Journal story,[2] has been accused of bypassing due process; the government is pressuring the financial industry to cut off the companies' access to banking services, without first having shown that the targeted companies are violating the law.[3][4][5][6] As reported by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, critics say, "it's a thinly veiled ideological attack on industries the Obama administration doesn't like, such as gun sellers and coal producers."[7]

Some merchant categories that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) had listed until July 2014 as being associated with high-risk activity include (until the FDIC revised the original policy in July 2014):[8]

Ammunition Sales
Cable Box De-scramblers

That list was like this 15 years ago.
This was a cover story for finding tax fraud and evasion.
It was all about the money.
