Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

Donald Trump is weaponizing the IRS against Harvard now, but who will he try to punish next?
Revoke the non-profit status of churches and hospitals? Snatch tax credits from families? Deny deductions for small businesses?
It's illegal and wrong. And it threatens everyone.
