Trump\u2019s attorney, Alejandro Brito, filed the case on behalf of the president and several of his hospitality-related companies, according to a <em>Fox Business <\/em>report.\u00a0<\/p> <p>JPMorgan confirmed the lawsuit and dismissed the claims. \u201cWhile we regret President Trump has sued us, we believe the suit has no merit,\u201d the bank said in a statement to <em>CNBC<\/em>. JPMorgan spokeswoman Patricia Wexler added that the bank does not close accounts for political or religious reasons and said it would defend itself in court.\u00a0<\/p> <p>According to the complaint, JPMorgan and Dimon allegedly placed Trump, the Trump Organization, its affiliated entities, and members of the Trump family on a so-called \u201cblacklist.\u201d The lawsuit claims this list is accessible to federally regulated banks and includes individuals or entities deemed to have engaged in malfeasant activity or to be noncompliant with banking regulations.\u00a0<\/p> <p>The legal action escalates Trump\u2019s long-running dispute with major Wall Street institutions following the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot, after which several financial institutions reassessed relationships with high-risk clients. Trump has repeatedly claimed that JPMorgan improperly cut off his access to financial services in the aftermath of the unrest.\u00a0<\/p> <p>In a recent post on his Truth Social platform, Trump accused JPMorgan of \u201cincorrectly and inappropriately DEBANKING\u201d him, reiterating his false claim that the 2020 presidential election was rigged. He again described the Capitol riot as a protest that was justified, offering no evidence to support the assertion.\u00a0<\/p> <p><iframe allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"truthsocial-embed\" src=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/115911321115123547\/embed\" style=\"max-width: 100%; border: 0\" width=\"600\"><\/iframe> <\/p> <p>Dimon has previously denied allegations that JPMorgan debanks customers based on political ideology. Speaking before lawmakers on Capitol Hill in February 2025, Dimon said the bank does not target conservatives or any customers because of their political or religious affiliations.\u00a0<\/p> <p>\u201cWe don&#8217;t debank people because of political or religious affiliations,\u201d Dimon told lawmakers. However, he acknowledged broader concerns around account closures, pointing to regulatory pressure. \u201cThe rules and requirements are so onerous, and it does cause people to be debanked in my opinion, [when it] should not be,\u201d he said, adding that banking regulators were \u201cpretty much\u201d to blame for the issue.\u00a0<\/p> <p>The lawsuit also comes amid Trump\u2019s broader criticism of the US Federal Reserve and renewed debate over banking regulation, financial access, and the independence of major financial institutions.\u00a0<\/p> <p>JPMorgan said it respects Trump\u2019s right to pursue legal action and reiterated its confidence in prevailing in court.<\/p> <\/div> <p>Trump JPMorgan lawsuit, Trump debanking lawsuit, Jamie Dimon Trump lawsuit, JPMorgan account closures Trump, Trump sues JPMorgan Chase Florida court, Trump Wall Street feud, JPMorgan political debanking, Trump Truth Social JPMorgan, Jan 6 debanking banks, JPMorgan Chase legal dispute Trump#Trump #sues #JPMorgan #Chase #CEO #Jamie #Dimon #alleged #039debanking039 #claims1769111910<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US\u00a0President Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. and its chief executive officer Jamie Dimon, accusing the bank of unlawfully closing his personal and business accounts in early 2021.\u00a0 The lawsuit was filed on January 22 in Florida state court in Miami-Dade County.
