A while back I built a dashboard just for myself: a quick way to compare community banks without digging through call reports one at a time.
Thanks to a few people who gave their time, feedback and funding, it's grown into a real website. Today Bank Value Hunter (bankvaluehunter.com) is live.
It's a free screener covering about 4,200 FDIC-insured banks, built on FDIC data. Every bank gets a 0–100 Hunter Score based on five numbers bankers already know: ROE, ROA, net interest margin, efficiency ratio and noncurrent loans.
Look up any bank, or every bank in a state, on its own page
Run a price-to-tangible-book calculator for public or private banks
Follow mergers and conversions, and see warning flags
Pro is $10/month for spreadsheet downloads and advanced filters, with a 5-day free trial and no card needed.
If you invest in or work at community and regional banks, I'd love your feedback.
Not investment advice.

We need more community banks, not fewer.
Before the 2008 financial crisis: New banks were frequently approved with $5–12 million (sometimes as low as $7–10 million).
After the Great Financial Crisis and Dodd-Frank: Regulators roughly doubled typical requirements (to around $20 million or more). Analyses put average or median post-crisis figures in the $25–32 million range.
Throughout the past decade, industry advisers and regulators have consistently treated roughly $20 million as the practical floor for most community banks, with many proposals required to raise more (often $25–50 million depending on size, market, and risk).
There has been no general reduction in this expectation.
Every previous wave of consolidation has been met with de novo bank creation. Community banks have always “disappeared” but new ones have always been formed to take their place.
The dearth of community banks is not organic. It is bureaucratically engineered.

🚨 Sonderling: @Microsoft laid off 6,000, then had 6,300 H-1B applications.
@Sonderling47: “Microsoft laying off 6,000 people last year and then having 6,300 H1B applications just furthers that narrative.”
On large outsourcing IT firms: “Our inspector general… has started criminal actions against all of them.”
That now “allows me then to suspend the ability to offer those long-term green cards.”

We are protecting the American worker by shutting down the pipeline of systemic fraud that has flooded our country with foreign labor at the expense of American workers. 🇺🇸

🚨 JUST IN: Effective immediately the Trump administration has hereby SUSPENDED ADOBE, MICROSOFT, Cognizant, Tata, Infosys, Wipro, HCL, and Capgemini from the Permanent Labor Certification Program
They undercut American workers. THEY FAFO'D
THIS. IS. MASSIVE.
"Since 2009, just these companies alone have requested almost 3 million foreign workers. They've received over 230,000 H1B visas approvals and over 100,000 permanent labor certifications."
"That's hundreds of thousands of jobs that were taken from American workers!"
The age of AMERICA FIRST is ALIVE AND WELL right now
A flurry of companies, including some of the biggest outsourcing giants on the planet. Tata, Infosys, Wipro, and HCL have been H1B pipelines for YEARS
Without PERM, they can't sponsor foreign workers for green cards. The path to keep them here for good is SHUT!
Vance, Stephen Miller, and IG D'Esposito are delivering exactly what Trump promised in 2024!
HIRE AMERICAN, IT IS THAT SIMPLE 🇺🇸

POLAND ISN'T MAGIC. IT JUST ENFORCES ITS LAWS.
An American woman living in Poland says she rides the train late at night with her valuables and never feels unsafe, the streets are clean, and families fill the parks.
That's what you get when a country controls its borders, has strict immigration policies, and actually punishes crime.
American cities could have the same thing tomorrow if Democrats stopped protecting criminals and started enforcing the law.
American has been living and working in Poland for a few months, she can’t believe how different it is from the United States
She says she takes public transit, even extremely late at night with valuables and never feels unsafe. Everywhere she goes is so clean, families are always playing in well-kept parks
You don’t need a prescription to buy things like contact lenses, you just walk right in and buy them. She says everyone is much more friendly and working is much more “chill”
The main thing is safety, she says cars always stop for you when you’re taking a walk, “In America, I always feel like someone's gonna run me over most of the time”
Poland is over 98% White and has very strict immigration policies. They also have expanded medications you don’t need a prescription for from things like viagra type pills to topical antibiotics and unitary tract medications

Every day, American workers face discrimination simply because they’re American.
Laid off and told to train your replacement—a guest worker visa holder? Passed over, excluded, or harassed just because you’re American?
That’s national origin discrimination. It’s illegal, and the EEOC is fighting back to protect workers of ALL races who are American.

MORE PROPERTY TAX INSANITY!: The City of Waxahachie just voted to RAISE PROPERTY TAXES!!
WATCH the liberal, tax hiking Mayor Pro-Tem COMPLAIN that the Texas Legislature requires him to publicly state that he is, in fact, RAISING PROPERTY TAXES!!
Darn right, we do! Texans deserve the TRUTH… and to know who is responsible for raising their property taxes!!
The Waxahachie officials who voted to betray Waxahachie taxpayers by voting FOR HIGHER PROPERTY TAXES were Mayor Billie Wallace, Mayor Pro Tem Travis Smith, and Council Member Tres Atkins.
The Waxahachie council members who voted NO were Patrick Souter and Chris Wright.
To my HD-10 constituents in Waxahachie, I’m sorry this is happening to you… you deserve better than this!!
I’ll keep fighting for more liberty and lower taxes!!

Dallas ISD isn’t even saving money by going H-1B. It costs more.
The district pays H-1B teachers the same starting salary as American teachers, PLUS takes on the costs of sponsorship.
How is this anything but a betrayal of our teachers and the students in every classroom?

BREAKING 🚨 BOMBSHELL IN TEXAS 🚨
Retired Police Lieutenant Douglas Deaton just blew the lid off the East Plano Islamic Center’s (EPIC) Sharia enclave that’s been operating in Plano, Texas, for 12 YEARS—and no one stopped it.
In explosive public testimony, Deaton warned Texas officials that this wasn’t some future plan—it’s already happening. And worse, it’s being replicated on a massive scale just outside Dallas.
Here’s what he exposed:
📍 74 homes—sold only to Muslims affiliated with EPIC
📍 A massive mega-mosque anchoring the enclave
📍 Sharia-adherent Islamic schools enforcing religious doctrine
📍 UIF Corporation offering only Sharia-compliant financial services
📍 A fortress-like home built beside the Plano Police Academy—overlooking SWAT vehicles, bomb trucks, and tactical zones (see maps and photos in article below)
📍 The owner? A senior EPIC leader and co-founder of the controversial Yaqeen Institute—a group that openly advocates Sharia in the West
🚨 “I urge everyone to visit their website and see for yourself what they say about instituting Sharia.” — Lt. (Ret.) Douglas Deaton
🧨 “This is not about radicals hiding in plain sight. They’re not hiding. They’ve been open about their beliefs and their intent.”
👉 Plano was Phase One. EPIC City is Phase Two.
EPIC is building EPIC City—a 400-acre Sharia-adherent residential and commercial compound near Dallas.

"We are looking at $236 billion, with a B, and growing, of ISD bond debt. This is why taxpayers feel crippled in their daily life because of this insane debt being levied on them by local ISDs and absolutely crushing the everyday Texas family." #txlege

Texas State University has 140+ U.S. students earning PR degrees every year. Yet it renewed an H-1B worker for a PR job.
Rep. Roy is demanding answers: Did the university actually try to hire Americans?
If you have to import workers for a job your own graduates are trained to do, something is seriously wrong.

Save the postage.
The threats aren’t derailing us. It confirms we are over the target.
The H-1B visa fraud investigation is only getting more aggressive.
We’re following the evidence, finding the fraud and protecting American workers.

Oh dear, Nike.
JUST BLEW IT: Nike has erased nearly $200 billion in market value as the iconic American brand’s stock sinks to a 12-year low.
The Swoosh-emblazoned brand has been on a yearslong slide, with shares plunging nearly 80% from Nike’s 2021 all-time high of $177.51.
The staggering decline is fueling fresh criticism of the company and its past controversies, including Nike’s 2019 decision to pull a planned Betsy Ross flag sneaker after Colin Kaepernick raised concerns over the design.
Sen. Ted Cruz is now taking aim at the brand, pointing back to his own Nike boycott and declaring: “#GoWokeGoBroke.”
