“The Treasury Department has admitted that it helped law enforcement catch people involved in the Jan. 6 Capitol breach by urging banks to comb through the private transactions of customers using terms like ‘MAGA’ and ‘Trump’ as part of a surveillance scheme intended to fight money launderers but used to hunt Jan. 6-ers.

The materials also allegedly included instructions to banks to use indicators that could include ‘the purchase of books (including religious texts)’ and subscriptions to media containing ‘extremist views.’

FinCEN shared such documents with banks and law enforcement agencies via a series of events on FinCEN Exchange. This is a public-private information exchange platform established by Congress in 2020 for the purpose of disrupting money laundering, terrorism financing, and other crimes.”
