Potential executive order would enlist banks in the White House’s illegal-immigration crackdown

This post uses a gift link with a view count limit. If it runs out, an earlier version of the article is here. That version is missing some significant details such as:

In January, FinCEN issued an order requiring banks and money transmitters in two Minnesota counties to file information about overseas transactions greater than $3,000, far lower than the normal $10,000 threshold for flagging cash transactions. Banks already think the $10,000 limit should be raised and have struggled to comply with the Minnesota order, according to some people familiar with their efforts.

The Washington Post has an article as well now

The cuts already happened already. He is as-yet-undiagnosed

I think that's a fairly small part of it. There were two big things that happened:

  1. Scientists were able to show that the HPV vaccine prevents cervical cancer. This gets rid of the treatment/cure payment thing entirely.
  2. Air pollution turned out to be a lot more harmful than people realized, which means that there's a much stronger reason to get rid of combustion as a routine thing that happens, and Trump's bribe-payers would be out a really huge amount of money if that happened.

The girls involved are victims, so I'm not surprised to see this decision about what to redact.
