#FDIC Chair #MartinGruenberg will resign after an outside report found #evidence of a “misogynistic” & “patriarchal” culture at the #banking regulator. #Gruenberg… announced Mon he would resign once President #Biden appoints & the Senate confirms a successor….
An independent investigation led by an outside law firm found rampant instances of #abusive workplace conduct…, incl’g #SexualHarassment, #stalking & inappropriate supervisor-subordinate relationships….
“Marty, you’ve heard me say this to you directly: You should resign,” Sen #TimScott (R-SC), the top #Republican on the #Senate#Banking Cmte, said. “Your employees do not have confidence in you. And this is not a single incident. This spans over a decade+ of your leadership at the #FDIC.”
Sen #SherrodBrown (D-OH), chair of the Banking Cmte, called on Mon for “new leadership” at the FDIC to “fix the agency’s toxic culture & put the women & men who work there —& their mission— first.”

I think what #TimScott was hinting at, probably accidentally saying the truth, is that we're not giving #Ukraine the type of support they'd need to win the war, which would probably be troops on the ground; instead, we're giving them the type of support they need to not lose. That's not the same, and it's why currently there's no end to the war in sight.
In my opinion, using the military of a far smaller, barely-standing nation as human sacrifices before an enemy you're too wimpy to fight yourselves is wrong. The Ukrainians have suffered too much already, we don't need to trap them in a forever war too.
