Tomorrow, the Senate Banking Committee will hold a hearing on “debanking”. My organization, the Consumer Choice Center, submitted comments to the committee urging a repeal of the Bank Secrecy Act, which imposes financial surveillance that accelerates debanking, as well as violates our rights by doxxing our financial information without warrants to FinCEN.

On Donald Trump’s last day of his first presidency in 2021, he issued pardons to several convicted political figures and rappers. In my hometown alt-weekly newspaper (Queen City Nerve), I argued at the time that the pardon of my former congressman, Robin Hayes, was the most undeserved, and it should have instead been granted to Ross Ulbricht, Edward Snowden, or Julian Assange.
