He ain’t out of the woods yet as the Justice Dept is eyeballing him and his legalized gambling firm known as Chase.

Chief Executive Jamie Dimon now faces a Justice Department probe into how the bank lost $2 billion from risky trades.

So they lost 2 Billion, who on main street cares?

What kills me is that Jamie Dimon, of JP Morgan Chase, still is calling for less regulation of Wall Street. From Matt Taibbi’s newest piece called Jamies Cryin‘: A quick note on the disastrous news emanating from J.P. Morgan Chase, whose unflappable (well, unflappable until yesterday) CEO Jamie Dimon yesterday disclosed that the bank suffered $2 billion in trading losses this quarter. Here’s the summation from the New York Times: Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan, blamed “errors, sloppiness and [continue reading]

Mothers Day is today..its more than just a day.

Like a lot of folks, my mom is no longer with us..but since she passed last december, its the first time for me so it’s sad.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio might finally get his due. Thank you DOJ!

Sheriff Joe likes to think he can get away with murder and he has, literally and figuratively…but hopefully not this time. The DOJ is coming for his ass and it warms the cockles of my little black heart. They have filed a lawsuit alleging Arpaio’s racist ass has been racially profiling latino’s for years, among other things. The DOJ suit can be read here on their website. They have been coming for his ass since 2008, according to a Daily [continue reading]

Mitt was a bully of LGBT students and others? How sick and disgusting

The WaPo did a front page expose on Mittens yesterday about his acts of bullying gay kids, fucking w/a blind teacher and other disturbing things during his prep school days. We aren’t just talking about a little, harmless name-calling type bullying ..I don’t consider name-calling harmless btw, its verbal abuse..we are talking major bullying in at least one case. From the WaPo writeup: A few days later, Friedemann entered Stevens Hall off the school’s collegiate quad to find Romney marching [continue reading]

Obama's new support of gay marriage..is it honest or politically motivated?

Today, our President finally came out in support of gay marriage publicly. Was it politically motivated or did he finally make up his little mind on the subject? It’s something we will never know of course. Zack Wahls, as some may recall, made the most impassioned speech ever for allowing gay marriage. Tonight, on his show, Lawrence O’Donnell did a beautiful, moving piece on the subject with two gay women, Lenny and Pearl who have been together for over 45 [continue reading]

Voters are angry and voting with their hearts, not their heads.

That another teabagger won last night and a felon in TX took almost 40% of the Democratic vote in West VA tells us a lot. People aren’t thinking in the voting booth, they are pissed and voting with their emotions. Is is this wrong? I don’t know, but it sure has hell can’t be good for us ,as teabaggers refuse to compromise and any idiot that voted for the felon in West VA doesn’t have two brain cells to rub [continue reading]
