A big party for bankers is happening right now in DC. About 4,000 will convene. And these bankers are getting dirtier in their fight against fixing the economy for the American people, and they are being led by a trade and lobbying group called SIFMA. That’s why their president has been honored with the Center for Media and Democracy’s Golden Throne Award! Tim Ryan sits on it well.
I’ve been working with BanksterUSA in the last few months and helped to write the press release here.
The Golden Throne award invokes fond memories of the $1.2 million bathroom renovation ordered by Merrill Lynch’s CEO, John Thain, shortly before the firm lost $27 billion and collapsed into the arms of Bank of America.
Why did they get it — they have been working on a grassroots campaign to blunt our “populist outrage” and water down reforms that they “support”.
