Bloomberg Comedy Hour

Joel Weber is a perfect example of a psychopath or something out of “What’s up doc!” The kind of guy who would slip a bicycle spoke through your ribs all the while smiling and telling you what a great guy he is and that you can trust him… all the way to the bank in this case.

And in this case he is telling you what a great guy Jamie Dimon is and the virtues of J.P.Morgan who have their “customers best interests at heart.” Oh give me a break!

As a friend of mine quite regularly posts in the comments section: “WHAAAAAAATTT?”

Or as Jim Dean so often remarks, “You just can’t make this stuff up!”

These are the same guys who started the Federal Reserve and put a zip on Tesla’s lip, locking up free energy systems for over a century. So right off the bat, you know that they are a bunch of crooks. 

Watch Joel closely. The smile, the comebacks, oh how J.P.Morgan has “learnt from their mistakes!” And how they have paid pithy fines for robbing the world blind and have got away with it.

Let’s face it, Joel Weber needs more work to smooth the edges out a bit. He still jars, and is not very convincing at all! He needs to get some lessons from Hillary, or maybe not. Because the next time a whistleblower goes free falling off the 33rd floor and splat onto the pavement, Joel might be chanting with that frozen smile of his, “We came, we saw, he jumped!”

Here are some examples from J.P.Morgan’s attempt to put right what should have had them locked up behind bars for life, but of course they are too big to fail right? Or so we are told:
