Patrick Mincey recently joined the Legal AF podcast, part of the MeidasTouch Network, to share perspective on the ongoing whistleblower matter involving Truth Social and Trump Media.

During the discussion, Mincey highlighted his call for Congress to have the firm’s client, Truth Social whistleblower Will Wilkerson, testify under oath regarding the suspicious $8 million in loans Trump Media received from a lender tied to Vladimir Putin. These revelations sparked “Operation Trust Social,” a joint Homeland Security and FBI money laundering investigation into the President’s company, which Wilkerson co-founded.

Wilkerson’s actions have already led to multiple felony convictions for individuals involved in related misconduct, in addition to active prison sentences and $50+ million in penalties and fines.

Despite years of retaliatory defamation lawsuits aimed at silencing Wilkerson, Trump Media has recently shifted its narrative, alleging that J.P. Morgan “debanked” the company for political reasons, a claim now under investigation by the Florida Office of the Attorney General.

Mincey explained that the $8 million in loans triggered AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and KYC (Know Your Customer) compliance requirements for Trump Media’s Chase account, where Wilkerson first discovered the suspicious deposits. The funds originated from Anton Postolnikov, nephew of former Russian Deputy Justice Minister Aleksandr Smirnov, now head of Russia’s Rosmorport. The loans were routed through Paxum Bank, a Caribbean-based payment processor known for serving the online pornography industry.
