If it is all Biden's fault (the fallback whackadoodle position) then why has (last I heard) Putin amassed 130,000 troops on Ukraine's border?
Hell, intelligent people know it's always Trump's fault! -

One of MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell's banks has cut ties with him a month after citing him as a 'reputation risk'
insider@insider.com (Cheryl Teh)
The Minnesota Bank & Trust is terminating its business relationship with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.
Insider obtained documents advising Lindell that his accounts would be closed February 18.
A month earlier, the bank called Lindell a "reputation risk" in a talk with the pillow CEO's staff.
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has been terminated as a client by the Minnesota Bank & Trust a month after the financial institution described him as a "reputation risk."
Insider viewed two letters sent to Lindell by the bank dated February 11. In one letter, the bank said Lindell's accounts with the bank would be closed by the end of business on February 18.
"Any remaining collected balance in the account scheduled to be closed will be mailed to the address we have on file. Alternatively, before February 18, 2022, you may transfer, using online banking, the remaining balance directly to your other banking institutions," the letter said.
Lindell told Insider he had nine accounts at the bank and none were related to his main MyPillow business. He said one account at the bank was connected to his website Frank Speech and another was linked to the Lindell Recovery Network, the pillow CEO's platform for people with addiction.
Lindell told Insider he was "disgusted" by the bank and accused it of "de-banking" and "canceling" him.
"They just said, 'Mike Lindell's in the public eye, and we don't want to be part of the news.' And now they're in the news, aren't they?" Lindell told Insider. "They are evil for canceling us."
Lindell added that he thought "someone" had "gotten to" the bank and motivated it to terminate its relationship with him.
"I've been in the news every day for a long time now," Lindell said, adding that he thought the bank was trying to "destroy" him and Frank Speech. "They just want to attack Mike Lindell and close his accounts," he said. "That's what I think."
Lindell told Insider he had secured a backup bank but declined to name it. He added that there wouldn't be any disruptions to broadcasting on Frank Speech, the website from which he hosts his nightly "Lindell Report," an hourlong daily show.
According to Lindell, his being subpoenaed by the January 6 House select committee for his phone records raised concerns at the Minnesota Bank & Trust and its parent company, Heartland Financial USA. He said senior executives at the financial institutions deemed him a "reputation risk" in a call with MyPillow's financial controller.
"But what if somebody came in and said, 'You know what? We're going to subpoena all of his account records and this and that,' and we make the news?" a man Lindell identified as Tom Cardle, a senior vice president at Minnesota Bank & Trust, was heard saying in voice recordings obtained by Insider.
Cardle didn't respond to requests for comment on whether he was in the recordings; the phone number, however, was linked to an office line associated with him.
A representative for the Minnesota Bank & Trust didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on the closing of Lindell's accounts.
Lindell remains one of the most vocal supporters of former President Donald Trump, and he recently told Insider he'd spent $25 million pushing Trump's voter-fraud claims. He is embroiled in a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit with the voting-machine company Dominion Voting Systems and a separate defamation suit with the voting company Smartmatic, both of which are suing him for peddling baseless voter-fraud claims. -

Trump's accountants quit — in the midst of preparing his and Melania's taxes — after questioning 'discrepancies'
litaliano@insider.com (Laura Italiano)
Accountants stopped preparing Donald and Melania Trump's taxes after questioning "discrepancies."
Mazars USA told the Trump Organization it had halted its relationship with him, court papers say.
The company is distancing itself from key evidence in a criminal probe into alleged financial fraud.
Donald Trump's longtime accountants have suddenly severed all ties with the former president and his business — quitting while in the midst of preparing his and Melania Trump's tax returns.
In a letter made public Monday by New York's attorney general, Letitia James, the accounting firm, Mazars USA, told the Trump Organization's top corporate lawyer it had stepped away from Trump and his business because of questions about the reliability of key company financial statements.
News of Mazars USA's stunning move surfaced in papers filed Monday by James as part of New York prosecutors' inquiry into possible banking, insurance, and tax fraud on the part of Trump and his business.
Since at least 2004, Mazars has prepared annual financial statements — so-called Statements of Financial Condition — containing detailed estimates of Trump's net worth.
Trump has used these statements to secure hundreds of millions of dollars in loans and insurance over the years.
In court documents filed over the past two years, James has alleged that Trump exaggerated his worth when trying to impress bankers and downplayed his worth when seeking lower taxes.
"Last week, after review of [the AG office's] filings, Donald J. Trump's and the Trump Organization's former accounting firm informed the Trump Organization that the Statements of Financial Condition from 2011 through 2020 should no longer be relied upon," James wrote in papers filed Monday.
James filed the papers in Manhattan Supreme Court, as part of a civil lawsuit seeking to compel Trump, his daughter Ivanka, and his son Donald Jr., to comply with subpoenas from her office requiring their documents and testimony.
As part of her filing, James included a copy of the letter Mazars sent to Alan Garten, the chief legal officer of the Trump Organization.
In the letter, Mazars' top attorney, William J. Kelly, tells Garten that after speaking with the attorney general's office, and after their own investigation, they realized the accountant firm could no longer represent the former president or his business.
"The Statements of Financial Condition for Donald J. Trump for the years ending June 30, 2011 - June 30, 2020 should no longer be relied upon," the letter said.
"We have come to this conclusion based, in part, upon the filings made by the New York Attorney General on January 18, 2022, our own investigation, and information received from internal and external sources," the letter continued.
"While we have not concluded that the various financial statements, as a whole, contain material discrepancies, based upon the totality of the circumstances, we believe our advice to you to no longer rely upon those financial statements is appropriate."
Mazars' lawyer went on to say that continuing to do accounting work for the Trump Organization would be "a non-waivable conflict of interest" — suggesting Mazars is weighing its own potential criminal liability.
"As a result, we are not able to provide any new work product to the Trump Organization," the letter continued, adding that the Trumps' tax returns were among the "limited number" that still remained to be filed.
Garten did not immediately respond to a request for comment; neither did attorneys for Trump and Mazars. -
