Jamie Dimon on Senate hot seat: Can money buy him love?
By Kathy Kiely
When JPMorgan chief executive Jamie Dimon delivers his not-so-abject apology for his bank's $2 billion-plus blooper on Wednesday morning, he'll be facing some interrogators who are also his beneficiaries.
Since 1998, according to Sunlight's Influence Explorer, Dimon and members of his immediate family -- wife Judith, father Theodore and mother Themis -- have given more than $400,000 to politicians and political organizations, including to members of the Senate Banking Committee that has summoned Dimon to testify. Dimon gave $2,000 to committee chairman Tim Johnson, D-S.D., during his last reelection campaign and the same amount to Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, the panel's second-ranking Republican. Two years ago, Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., got a $2,000 donation from Dimon when the then-congressman ran successfully for the seat once occupied by President Barack Obama.
