Charlie Gasparino Calls Out JPMorgan CEO for Playing 'Footsie with the Political Left'

Fox Business Senior Correspondent Charlie Gasparino took JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon to task for pushing radical and discriminatory diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

In a New York Post article headlined, "Jamie Dimon may not see it, but JP Morgan has a glaring 'woke blind spot,'" Gasparino blasted the banking executive for his pro-DEI remarks at the Council of Institutional Investors. "Jamie Dimon is a great CEO and JPMorgan is very profitable. But allowing his bank to play footsie with the political left sullies this image," Gasparino wrote on Sept. 14, exposing the discriminatory nature of the Dimon-endorsed DEI policies.

ESG-obsessed Bloomberg News reported a day earlier that Dimon had ridiculously claimed that he was "not 'woke' at all," despite also endorsing DEI as "good for business" and "morally right." Dimon added, "[W]e're quite good at it; we're successful."

ICYMI! Gasparino: 'The American Consumer Has Rejected Wokeness'

Gasparino who recently published a book titled Go Woke Go Broke; The Inside Story of the Radicalization of Corporate America quickly tore Dimon's distinction to shreds. The Fox Business correspondent referenced Dimon's apparent support of the violent and destructive Black Lives Matter riots of 2020. Gaspairno also brought up JP Morgan's $30 billion commitment to a "Racial Equity Commitment fund." This included explicitly racially discriminatory provisions such as $2 billion in "small-business loans to borrowers with businesses in neighborhoods where the majority of the population is nonwhite," according to The New York Times.

In his Post article, Gasparino demonstrated that Dimon has continued to embrace woke ideas like DEI racial discrimination in hiring, writing, "In its celebration of DEI, JPMorgan's website advertises that '58 percent of new US hires are racially or ethnically diverse.'"

Gasparino also noted that Dimon's company is a "platinum partner" with the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a radical leftist pressure group that pushes companies to embrace policies such as allowing men in women's restrooms and "healthcare coverage for medically necessary transition-related care."

Gasparino didn't stop there calling Dimon out for presiding over a pro-ESG shift when he was chair of the Business Roundtable. "It was under Dimon's leadership that the powerful Business Roundtable adopted the 'stakeholder capitalism' model of corporate governance, opening the door for groups like the aforementioned Human Rights Campaign (aka HRC) to having a say in corporate decision making," Gasparino wrote.

Notably, the HRC immediately made use of Dimon's pro-DEI remarks, celebrating the Bloomberg article in a post on X. "Fortune 500 executives agree: Inclusion isn't just the right thing to do -- it's good for business. Thank you!" the radical organization wrote, before using the article to pressure companies that had cut ties with them.
