The investigation that Justice Department officials have dubbed "Operation Choke Point" was first disclosed in March 2013. The probe aims to prevent fraudsters from accessing consumer bank accounts by choking off their access to the payments system. Its effects have been felt by banks, payment processors and companies that make short-term consumer loans over the Internet, with some industry officials arguing that at least some of the affected online lenders are legitimate businesses. Here is a look at key milestones of the investigation.

You do not even know what this is all about.

"The Obama administration is also using Operation Choke Point to punish political opponents like those in the firearms industry."

"As an employee in the industry being "choked", I've watched as several legitimate business have been shut down. Hundreds unemployed. My company follows all the state & federal laws- why should the bank not process our payments?"

It is just like the IRS going after his opponents.

Mr. Obama is hardly a loser, he won the US presidency not once but twice.


So did Bush

It depends on which side of the political spectrum you're on.

"In fact, he may very well not even be aware of what the DOJ is doing here. He cannot possibly keep up on every regulation in every department. " Maybe if he played less golf and did more desk time, he would be more aware of what is happening among his troops.

Lincoln was the first Republican president so I think it is all his fault. :roll:

Sorry, I thought you would get it.
Calling Obama a loser is just like calling Bush a loser, especially when they were both re-elected.
See...
Never mind.

Oh no, TrainNut, you should not blame Lincoln, instead you should blame George Washington for he is the first president of the country. Better yet, blame Columbus for discovering America. Without him we won't be here posting blaming all the woes to a particular person as if he has the control. To me, Obama is far from being a tyrant! The one in North Korea, he's the one we can call a tyrant!!!

George Washington was our eighth president, although he was the first under our Constitution.
Not what you learned in school? Nor was it for me.

John Hanson was actually the first president of the United States, elected under the Articles of Confederation.
