The Biden administration has reportedly instructed banks to flag financial transactions containing politically sensitive words like 'MAGA' and 'Trump', as well as purchases from stores such as Cabela's, Bass Pro Shops, and Dick's Sporting Goods. This move has sparked outrage among conservatives, with accusations of government overreach and targeting of conservatives. Representatives like Jim Jordan and Brian Mast have expressed concerns over this financial surveillance, while Senator Ted Cruz and others have condemned it as un-American and unconstitutional. The House Judiciary Committee is demanding answers, and there are allegations that the government also suggested banks search for terms like 'Biden' and 'Antifa'. The Federal Government's intrusion into personal banking transactions has prompted strong reactions from various public figures and politicians, with calls for an end to the weaponization of government against the people.
The federal government has no business surveilling Americans just because they shop at Cabela’s, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Bass Pro or purchase a Bible. The weaponization of government against We The People must end. I’ll always stand strong for our constitutional rights.

MAGA, sporting goods stores and religious texts. Those are the search terms federal government officials reportedly urged financial institutions to use to surveil Americans transactions. As Ranking Member of @BankingGOP, I want answers: https://t.co/i0eRdoGgao
It’s unacceptable that federal law enforcement scrapped the data of American citizens from financial institutions.

Allegations that our financial regulators urged banks to surveil their customers’ transactions using politically charged terms are alarming and unacceptable.
