Trump to order probe of crypto and political debanking claims: WSJ

President Trump plans to sign an executive order directing bank regulators to investigate debanking claims by the crypto sector and conservatives, probing violations of antitrust, consumer protection, and fair lending laws. The order targets alleged Biden-era pressures on banks to shun crypto clients, dubbed "Operation Choke Point 2.0," and political debanking, with potential fines for violators.
