'No country for creepy old men': FDIC chief grilled over sex, nude pix at agency
[NYPOST] The embattled head of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was grilled on Capitol Hill on Tuesday — one day after a bombshell investigation revealed the banking regulator has long been a toxic cesspool of misogyny.

FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg, who appeared at a Capitol Hill oversight hearing with other top financial regulators, told the Senate Banking Committee he was personally distraught after the Wall Street Journal’s report on Monday and committed to providing a safe working environment for staff.

That did not spare him the wrath of politicians after the Journal detailed incidents where senior bank examiners allegedly texted female subordinates photos of their penises and invited employees to a strip club.

"You and your colleagues ought to hide your heads in a bag," Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) railed. "This is no country for creepy old men."

Fellow Republican Sen. Cynthia Lummis noted Gruenberg’s nearly 20-year tenure on the FDIC board, chastising him for what they said was his failure to act on a long-standing problem spotlighted by the FDIC’s inspector general.

#2 Creepy old men???

Cocaine, whiskey, whores, and million dollar deals: Sound like they were balling. Banker Life have a lot of stress, what is their suicide rate? Let them have their things after close of business.

Teetotalers suck. Dick pics suck. You have a fun office environment and that one person(s) screws it up for everyone else.

#4 He isn't a Democrat creeper prone to excessive consumption and sexual assault.

See, he's a fine lad who has fallen under the wizardry of Freemasons and deserves our sympathies, well wishes he didn't become Ultra-Maga.

#5 "This is no country for creepy old men."

We all now that its a country for child groomers and child mutilators. P0rn is to be in the school library not in the offices. (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)
