"When they actually did the claw back, it caused the account to overdraft by $79.5 million," says NYC Comptroller Brad Lander on Trump yanking back funds from NYC. "Citibank charged us a $15,000 overdraft fee. I'm happy to say, I reached out to Citibank, and they have refunded the overdraft fee."
Must be nice to have the bank refund an unfair overdraft. Can't say I've ever had that happen. I scheduled a utility payment on the 30th, to go out on the 3rd after I got paid. I received an overdraft charge, even though the payment hadn't even gone out.
That sucks. I worked at Washington Mutual when I was younger. Sometimes if you go to the bank and talk to them they will refund it. At least Wamu used to
Yeah. Nope. Bank of America wanted their money at depositors expense. I'll never bank with them again.
Ugg. Sorry. Overdraft fees are ridiculous
That really sucks! You should reach out to the CFPB and see if they can help... oh wait...
It was before the CFPB existed..so.
😡🖕🏻
The Nazi judicial competence and procedure was established for the first time in a set of Directions (Richtlinien) decreed by Hitler in August, 1929. After 1933, the Führer ordered the present Chief Party Justice, Walter Buch, to change the USCHLA into a regular party judicial system.
15k on 79.5 million, actually sounds kinda low? Guess NY has good overdraft protection...
This is the real harm incurred that rises to the level needed to overcome political bias when states sue the federal government over policy.
A clawback without a court order and this isn't highly illegal?
So they really stole money from Citibank and left an IOU in the account
Jesus! You just can't make this shit up! OMG!

This has to stop! We can’t let Trump and Musk destroy us!
I'm sorry but WTF?
Wait, does that mean they only actually stole $500k?
they should charge it to big balls
I have a feeling I'm going to use the line "charge it to big balls" a lot for the foreseeable future 😂
😂
Trump has been stealing and cheating his entire adult life.
Stop with the weasel words. It was stolen. The words are steal, stolen. They are thieves.

😡😡😡😡😡
Hey Citi, are you gonna wave my overdraft fees when my incoming checks don’t clear?
Our country is being run by a criminal cartel. This is what happens when you put a felon in charge.
Clown show, but not amusing in the least.
Yet another example of "How is that even remotely possible?"
📌
Sounds like some felony theft charges are warranted here.
Paging Pam Bondi
STOP SAYING “CLAW BACK” It is THEFT. They STOLE $80 MILLION from you.
What a mess!
If only Citibank would extend the same courtesy to its customers when they experience overdrafts.
Good! 🇺🇸

Interesting. I know a certain resort owner in Florida that charges USSS 5x the gov't rate to stay there. Maybe DOGE should look into that.
Indeed😡
Someone needs to look into Drumpf's Administrations reasoning. Illegal activities at a hotel. Are they talking about the raping of immigrants by New York National Guard members? If so, yes, there was illegal activity at that Days Inn done by the New York National Guard not immigrants
Kristi makes her debut.
It's time to stop pretending that this will be solved through courts, because you know he ignores the law, calls judges corrupt, and has already said he will take out the judges and the military. If he's not taken into custody first, America will become like Russia.
Jesus! Fire Adams already!
My god, you need to educate yourself. Clawbacks are 100% legal and happen all the time in financial transactions.
Enabling Act (March 23, 1933): This law granted Hitler dictatorial powers, allowing him to pass laws without the consent of the Reichstag. Sound a little familiär? SCOTUS 6-3 majority freed presidents to use their official powers to engage in criminal acts substantially free of accountability.
We all have to change our phone numbers, emails, and bank accounts. I am demanding that they scrub the social security system and reissue everyone new SS#s. Sue them all for wrongful death, unlawful access to private data. Anyone who assisted them should be jailed. Sort it out in the courts.
...Supreme Court as well.
Banana Republic
Hey @chrislhayes.bsky.social can you help normalize the conversation about impeachment? We either have a Constitution, or we don't. Next up, they'll be in our bank accounts. youtu.be/5_nA-G5joGg
Trump believes what he wants to believe. Nobody can convince him otherwise. You'll never convince him that he's wrong.
Oooowee😡
Seems like jail time should happen. Ms Bondi will fix it Ha ha
If it was stolen by Musk—prosecute & jail him. JFC!
Jail awaiting trial
Agreed

What account did the money go into Trump's or MuskRat's ?
We need to impeach now. And get President Musk out of there.
Wow. If they can steal money from the city of New York City. They can steal it from you.
Anyone who has received a direct deposit of any kind from the federal government: Social Security payment, tax refund, VA benefit payments, etc. the federal government HAS YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFO.
Anyone: the federal government HAS YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFO. #fixedThatForYou
How is this legal. Please explain like I'm a five year old.
I'm so sorry sweetie, but it isn't legal.
Did someone in Adams office authorize this transaction? If not, why are any banks capitulating & processing these withdrawals? Even government entities need permission to remove funds. If Drumpf’s admin. claims agency “fraud” to circumvent, it wasn’t a fraudulent transaction & there is a process.
If no authorizations this is a hack, by unauthorized individuals.
This has always been about the heist. Stealing and conning people is what Musk and the Manchurian candidate have always done best.
New York contributes 17.5% of its GDP to the federal government. Maybe it’s time to cut back.
😂 😂 😂
Time to ask for everything to be wired to you. They got around it with the ACH rules - don’t think they can do that with a wire. Also if they waited one more day, it wouldn’t haven’t been possible.
Last time I checked CitiBank told us plebes to fuck off when we asked for overdraft fees to be reversed.. Glad you guys are having a good chuckle though !
Celebrate the small win for the taxpayers of NYC. And consider banking with a local bank or credit union.
Do pay into the Federal coffers if you are not getting anything back
When the faith and credit of the us is in question- oh boy🤗🙄🙄🙄🙄
Holy Moly😳
NYC should be suing Citibank too. Imagine if a lot of major federal funds recipients became concerned that their $ wasn’t secure in their depository bank. What then, banks?
Um, never mind. Turns out they were within the 5 day rescission period for ACH
Over under on the bank run?
Only 15k? Seems generous of the bank.
