Official narrative
Money laundering is perhaps most closely associated with the illegal drug trade, which creates huge cash profits. The official narrative of money laundering suggests that banks oppose money laundering, and seek to prevent it. This overlooks their obvious commercial interest in encouraging profitable transactions.
In US politics
Sibel Edmonds has suggested that Dennis Hastert received a lot of money in small donations (<$200) so that he did not have to disclose their origin. Between April 1996 and December 2002, un-itemized personal donations to the Hastert for Congress Committee amounted to $483,000, higher than anyone else with the exception of Clay Shaw.[1]

| George Carlin | “Drug dealers aren’t afraid to die. They’re already killing each other every day on the streets by the hundreds. Drive-bys, gang shootings, they’re not afraid to die. The death penalty doesn’t mean anything unless you use it on people who are afraid to die. Like… the bankers who launder the drug money! The bankers. Who launder. The drug money! Forget the dealers, you want to slow down that drug traffic, you got to start executing a few of these fucking bankers.” | George Carlin | |
| John Deuss | “An international warrant had been issued for Mr Deuss's arrest after a bank he owns on Curaçao, in the Dutch Antilles, was closed last month during an Anglo-Dutch investigation into carousel fraud. British Customs officials had discovered that every individual arrested and charged with the fraud in the UK in the previous two years had an account at the First Curaçao International Bank (FCIB). Since raiding its headquarters and freezing its assets, investigators have discovered that about 2,500 British citizens suspected of carousel fraud hold accounts there.” | John Deuss | 16 October 2006 |
