Wow she is smart and moral.

I will view whatever show she appears on.
Thanks for the post & video.

Watched the Money Channel a few months ago where they treated Dimon like a God.
Its a sickness.

is she didn't get her timing approved by DU before she spoke to Tiabbi.. All whistleblowers must be cleared through the lens of DU otherwise their story remains suspicious.
