Singer and songwriter John Rich has just announced a new financial bank to fight against cancel culture.
He tweeted an article about the new bank, named Old Glory Bank, which is being led by Rich, Dr. Ben Carson and Larry Elder.
They are creating the new bank to give people an alternative to leftist-run banks that cancel accounts of people they disagree with.

Here’s more from Just The News:
Country music singer John Rich on Wednesday announces the creation of a new bank for Americans who support freedom of speech and have concerns about their existing bankers punishing them – and their accounts – for publicly backing issues that their banks don’t support.
The bank is called Old Glory Bank and its being led by Rich, conservative commentator Larry Elder, and Dr. Ben Carson, former 2016 presidential candidate.
“People are getting their credit cards turned off if they go to the wrong protest or if they make the wrong social media posts,” Rich said on the John Solomon Reports podcast.
Rich said he was got on board with the alternative bank idea after being approached by “some really smart, patriotic people who come from the banking industry.”
“We offer full online banking services,” Elder said in an excerpt of an upcoming Solomon podcast. “So those of you who were threatened with having your accounts shut down or you’re with banks that have threatened to have others shut down and you don’t like the values of your bank, there’s a home for you at Old Glory Bank.”
The monetary platform PayPal also got backlash in October for fining its customers $2,500 in damages for spreading “misinformation.”
“They’ve weaponized our bank accounts basically, at this point,” said Rich. “There’s a whole group of real patriotic Americans who just believe in freedom of speech, and they wanted to create a new platform for regular Americans to be able to do their business.”
The new bank hasn’t officially launched yet, but Rich did encourage people to go reserve an account at the new bank via their website:

I am glad to see serious alternatives being created by serious people who care about the idea of free speech in a country where it is under attack daily.
I hope the Old Glory Bank is very successful and people flock to it. It’s important to have real alternatives to leftists insitutions who don’t really care about liberty.
