Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

TD Bank Pleads Guilty to Money Laundering, Will Pay Over $3 Billion in Fines

HeadlineOct 11, 2024

The Justice department says TD Bank will pay more than $3 billion in fines after pleading guilty to federal money laundering charges. Two TD Bank employees have also been criminally charged. Federal prosecutors say TD Bank became the go-to institution for narcotraffickers and human smugglers, including one case where workers received tens of thousands of dollars in gift cards as bribes from a man who laundered more than $470 million in illicit funds through TD Bank branches in the U.S.
