Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Sues JPMorgan Over Account Closures After Capitol Riot
Caption: Trump Sues JPMorgan Over Account Closures After Capitol Riot. US President Donald Trump files a $5 billion lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase, accusing the bank of illegally closing his accounts for political reasons. The lawsuit, which also names JPMorgan chief executive Jamie Dimon, claims Trump and his businesses suffer significant financial and reputational harm after accounts are shut in 2021, following the Capitol riot. JPMorgan says the case has no merit, insisting it does not close accounts for political or religious reasons, but only where clients pose legal or regulatory risk. Filed in Florida, where banks are barred from discriminating based on political views, the complaint alleges the decision reflects a wider industry practice aimed at sidelining conservative voices. Trump also accuses the bank of trade libel, claiming his name and businesses are placed on a shared “blacklist”, a move he says is approved at senior level. The lawsuit marks the latest clash between Trump and Dimon, who have repeatedly sparred over banking, regulation and economic policy.
