# Capital One Capital One Financial Corporation is a McLean, Virginia–based bank holding company and one of the largest U.S. credit-card issuers and consumer banks. Relevant to the KB as the defendant in the [[Trump Organization]]'s "debanking" lawsuit. The Trump Organization alleges Capital One closed its accounts in 2021 for political reasons following January 6. In an August 2026 motion to dismiss, Capital One disclosed that it had closed more than 300 Trump Organization accounts after a months-long review by its anti-money-laundering team identified concerning transaction patterns — the first public account of the bank's stated rationale. Capital One has not accused the Trump Organization of illegal money laundering. The case is a live node in the broader conservative [[Debanking]] campaign, which has framed account closures at major banks as viewpoint discrimination rather than compliance-driven. ## See Also - [[Trump Organization]] - [[Debanking]] - [[Trump Corruption News Log]] (stub — to be expanded)
