Trump isn't doing shit that would help us. This has nothing to do with Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, Discover, PayPal, Skrill, Stripe, Dwolla, et cetera. They are not banks, credit unions, or unspecified "financial institutions." They are wallets and payment processors, which are different beasts entirely. This is another bullshit movement to make sure Trump, his companies and other assholes can keep their money in whatever accounts they want to and cannot be denied opening new accounts. Politicians have never given a flying fuck about normal people and they never will.

Basically; The can't deny payment's for any reason involving religious beliefs or political beliefs and have 3 Month's to follow through and change the EULA or else.
Folks here are claiming he won't do shit because we still don't have the Epstein List or they just hate the guy. I would rather take a win where we can get it and I'm not so sure he'll sit back on this one and the carriers got hit with a stock-pirce drop because the phone lines were tied while other gamers are now turning their scripts on their heads when calling a call center... which reminds me, have you called MC or Visa today?
and all I've been seeing are folks taking a shit on this with the exception of those who upvoted the topic, which I do thank. All I wanted to do was draw attention what was happening and what might happen.
It’s interesting, if unsettling, how this is playing out.
My criticism is that every EO as legislation is a bad sign for the balance of power and general health of our federal government. The White House is certainly doing this to protect the moneyflow for Trump businesses and partners, not for the general populace in unrelated trade, because that’s always how the people around this oligarch operates.
But maybe the EO will end up helping us? It is possible.
i don't get the rational.
A bakery can deny service on religious ground but a processor or bank can't do that. Based on what?
And banks didn't gave him loans because of his reputation.
Besides, the current is against porn in any way. So i can't imagine that the president would fight for porn if his base is against it and its written in the pamphlet 2025 as well.
