Alan Dershowitz calls reports of banks handing over J6 defendants’ bank info to FBI without warrants: ‘new McCarthyism’

Alan Dershowitz calls recent FBI Whistleblower’s allegations that banks handed over Jan. 6 defendants’ banking information to FBI without warrants, a “great danger to freedom.” Saying, “banks should not be turning records, private records over. The next thing, doctors will be turning over private records and priests and rabbis and you just can't start violating people's privacy without a court order. It's so easy today to get a subpoena court order, courts don't really look behind a governments’ request, but to go without even a court order and just willy nilly get records and the bank being complicit in that. I have to tell you, if it was my bank, I will take the money out right away and put it in a bank that promises me that wouldn't turn over my records without a court order.” The Harvard Law Professor Emeritus responds to that many of these actions taken in the wake of January 6th, are emotional reactions and are “the new McCarthyism.”  Commenting, “Because I remember the old McCarthyism, everybody was so upset with communism, for good reason. Communism was a horrible, horrible thing that they were willing to use McCarthyism and use tactics like that. And I thought we had buried McCarthyism with Joe McCarthy. But apparently he's gotten out of his grave, and he's now infested the Democrats. And it's no better when Democrats use McCarthyism, then when Republicans did, no bank should not turn over a single record.”
