THREATENED: Treasury Department Targets DeSantis’ Anti-Woke Banking Law

The Treasury Department has spoke out against Florida’s new anti-woke banking law.

Their excuse is that it would allow criminals to mess with the U.S. financial system.

And they don’t want competition.

This law, known as HB 989, was given the DeSantis stamp of approval back in May.

It basically says that banks need to stick to the basics.

That means no considering politics, religion, or any of anti-White DEI agenda.

Seems those that control the money don’t like to be told what they can’t control.

They better get used to it.

Change is coming.

Sadly this even has to be done. Thanks Governor

Yahoo Finance reports:

The Treasury Department has taken aim at Florida’s new anti-woke banking law — warning it could open the floodgates for criminals to use and manipulate the U.S. financial system.

The new state law (HB 989), signed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in May, declares it would be “unsafe and unsound” for banks to consider non-financial factors like politics, religion or environmental, social and corporate-governance (ESG) when doing business.

“We reject a global elite trying to force their ideology on us by capturing major institutions,” DeSantis, who has led an aggressive campaign against so-called “woke” ideology in the Sunshine State, said when signing HB 989 into law.

“We are not going to allow big banks to discriminate based on someone’s political or religious beliefs.”

But while DeSantis claims he’s fighting discrimination, the U.S. Treasury has labeled the Florida law a potential threat to national security.

Of course they did.

You do anything against the Deep State and they freak out and say “that’s a threat to national security!”

Allow me to translate: What they really mean is that “that’s a threat to us!”
