U.S. Is Set to Sue a Dozen Big Banks Over Mortgages – Yeah, sure.

So, what’s this? Another charade? Did Geithner or Bernanke suggest, “Hey Barack we’ll fix it, we’ll just file a big lawsuit against everybody and then we’ll cut a deal that let’s the banks off the hook for everything for the $20 billion the AG’s won’t settle on…”

The federal agency that oversees the mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is set to file suits against more than a dozen big banks, accusing them of misrepresenting the quality of mortgage securities they assembled and sold at the height of the housing bubble, and seeking billions of dollars in compensation.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency suits, which are expected to be filed in the coming days in federal court, are aimed at Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank, among others, according to three individuals briefed on the matter.

The suits stem from subpoenas the finance agency issued to banks a year ago. If the case is not filed Friday, they said, it will come Tuesday, shortly before a deadline expires for the housing agency to file claims. Continue reading

The Man Who May Bring the Banksters to Justice (If They Don’t Break His Knees First)

New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman may go down in history as the most important public official in reforming the corrupt financial system that caused the great Financial Crisis of 2008 and holding the perps responsible — if he can hold out against pressure from Wall Street, the Federal Reserve, and the Obama administration to give Wall Street a “Get Out of Jail Free” card.

Eric Schneiderman has played a key role in the investigation of foreclosure fraud and robo-signing by 50 state attorneys general against JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and Ally Bank. Reportedly, most of of the attorneys general — Continue reading

yes we canRemember Barack Obama’s “Yes we can” victory speech from Chicago’s Grant Park on Election Night 2008?  Nearly three years later, what’s happened to the hope and promise of that November evening?  For millions of American families struggling with foreclosure, it’s become nothing more than empty words and disappointment from an Administration that believes “Wall Street is our Main Street” and “foreclosures are good for the economy.”  Their half-assed attempt to alleviate the foreclosure crisis, HAMP, has proved to be nothing more than a cruel

Super Hero Schneiderman Kicked Out of Club for Standing Up for America

The time has come to rattle the cages of our Attorneys General, our Governors, our Congressional Representatives and State Legislators.SUPER SCHNEIDERMAN We need to tell them that we support New York’s Attorney General Schneiderman! The one true Super Hero, Eric T. Schneiderman, AG of the great state of New York understands the vast amount of fraud that is associated with securitization.

Schneiderman is not willing to fall in the Obama line dance and allow the banks to get off nearly scot-free for ALL of the wrongs, frauds, abuses and Ponzi scheming that they’ve done. The fearless leader has been outspoken because he knows, just like his predecessor, Elliot Spritzer, that these banks have committed crimes that surpass any “get out of jail” free pardons the failed Obama administration might be willing to give.

Obama Administration Tries to Protect Banksters Urging AG Cooperation

MaxineIt was midnight Sunday. I couldn’t sleep.  NY Times emails me an alert to Gretchen Morgenson’s article about how the Obama “I only care about the banks” Administration is trying to negatively influence the NY AG (my hero) Eric Schneiderman who is gunning after the Wall Street banks for their foreclosure fraud and Ponzi scheme that collapsed our country. I was angry, tossing and turning all night thinking about how I would blog my emotions. When I awoke there were several other well-respected bloggers that expressed my feelings for the leader of the unemployed, homeless, “free” world better than I ever could.
