This is an incredible @AmerBanker piece. A credit union advocate admits that credit unions would, in fact, gain an unfair advantage over community banks with a higher FDIC cap - that they would use the higher cap to attract larger business accounts. Of course, that's pretty much beyond their mission, and it's exactly what two community bankers recently complained about in another American Banker piece (see below). Credit unions are supposed to be sleepy little member-driven coops. They're not. But they're tax exempt. Not sure the credit union guy thought carefully enough about this one....

Oh fab, Pam Bondi’s DOJ clown car subpoenaing Powell? Just boosts odds he stays, running FOMC post-chair. WH’s only play: appoint @SecScottBessent. The Kevins? Total Halligan/Pirro vibes. Bondi - learn to ignore POTUS calls after 11pm. npr.org/2026/01/11/nx-…

I get @BillAckman’s deleted tweet; I had the same initial eye-roll at the “Greenland by force” saga. But absurdity IS the secret sauce. Bet Pres snags mineral rights to 1/3 of Greenland for peanuts, flipping the script on China. Mad genius vibes. (Just keep Lutnick out of it.)

Take a deep breath banker friends. ⁦Bessent and Pres will not crater $1.3t industry. This play will reduce tax the rich pressure, save $50b through voluntary compliance, earn press for base, and further distract. Brilliant ⁦⁦⁦@SecScottBessent apnews.com/article/trump-…

Well, someone has redeemed himself post 60 Minutes chat about Epstein. Spreading his profile again. Future Viceroy of Venezuela? Or Bessent backstop should Trump realize the Kevins can’t meet the moment at Fed. @SecScottBessent

Good sign? Below is Bessent’s understated power office at Treasury. Adjacent is a mock up of same office by Howard Lutnick’s design team. Indicative of a Fed Chair announcement? Or a premature measuring of the drapes?

Credit Unions now asking banks to work with them to support Hagerty-AlsoBrooks bill to raise deposit insurance to $10 million. Who but the ICBA will fall for that trap? Do you want credit unions to take your high dollar customers too? americanbanker.com/opinion/deposi…

@Aarondklein It’s a $4 billion asset credit union serving 250k members from many organizations. Free suites at the stadium, great offices, awesome benefits and salaries. You know, all the advantages that not paying taxes can provide.

@atrupar Love the big guy, but we are always pro-cyclical in our banking policy. Dems tighten standards at bottom of cycle, when they should be loosened. Repubs loosen at top of cycle when they should tighten. I think this might be some natural law.

Bessent: "These 2008, 2009, 2010 financial rules were too tight. They hamstrung the American financial system. It was time for a change. We're gonna be safe, smart, and sound in terms of our deregulation. But we have to take the financial system out of this straitjacket. This substantial increase in private credit which is outside of the regulated banking system -- that tells me that the regulated system is too constrained."
