Artic Frost: FBI Probe Became a Sweeping Inquiry into Conservative Spheres  

In April 2022, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), alongside multiple federal agencies, launched a covert operation code-named “Arctic Frost. Initially, the investigation targeted alleged “false electors” in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election. As the probe grew, its mandate expanded well beyond Trump affiliates, encompassing a wide range of Republican figures and organizations, including the Republican National Committee and Turning Point USA (TPUSA).

Benjamin Franklin never carried a debit card or checked his credit score, but make no mistake: he knew money, and he knew freedom.  

Centuries before “financial literacy” became a buzzword, Franklin was preaching the value of thrift, savings, and self-reliance. He warned about laziness, encouraged entrepreneurship, and reminded Americans that independence wasn’t just won on the battlefield; it was earned at the dinner table, the workbench, and the ledger. 

Imagine this: Washington, Jefferson, or Franklin walks into a modern-day bank. 

They’ve traded powdered wigs for polos and parchment for mobile apps, but they’re still looking for the same thing – a place that respects their values. A place where freedom is not only protected but honored. 

Hamilton’s Legacy Meets the Future of Finance 

Alexander Hamilton believed in the power of structure. He believed in order, in systems, and in building a financial foundation strong enough to support a young, ambitious republic. But if he could see what’s become of that vision today, he might not recognize it. 

In the early days of the American republic, Thomas Jefferson didn’t mince words when it came to economic liberty.

He famously wrote that “to preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt” — a warning that rings louder today than ever before. 

When America declared its independence in 1776, it wasn’t just about cutting ties with a monarch. It was about building a nation rooted in liberty.

The Founding Fathers weren’t interested in simply escaping tyranny. They envisioned something better. They believed in a country where citizens could speak freely, worship openly, and live without fear of government interference. They understood that true liberty extended to how people earned, saved, and spent their money. 

Introducing a limited-time offer, from a collaboration between Old Glory Bank and Dalton Starr of We The People Apparel

At Old Glory Bank, we stand firmly with the men and women who protect our communities, secure our borders, and safeguard our freedoms. This year, we’re proud to announce a powerful new collaboration with We The People Apparel and the launch of a shirt designed specifically for our nation’s Protectors: law enforcement officers, firefighters, U.S. Border Patrol agents, and active-duty military personnel. 

President Trump’s August 2025 executive order cracking down on politically motivated debanking is an important defense of American freedoms. For too long, major financial institutions have quietly discriminated against conservatives, Christians, Second Amendment groups, and other values-driven Americans – closing accounts, denying services, and labeling traditional beliefs as “reputational risks.” This order finally calls out that abuse and demands accountability.

At Old Glory Bank, we believe in learning from the past, working hard today, and investing in tomorrow.

We are honored by the opportunity to expand our Merit Scholarship award to additional recipients. Old Glory Bank’s scholarship committee was so impressed and encouraged by the incredible submissions we received that we couldn’t stop with just one.
