Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[Sogo]

That’s why Calabria scheduled it on Sweeney’s day. Make no mistake: the powers that be will stop at nothing, and it’s easy as pie for them to make sure that they can upstage any important court date by simply making their own statements at any half-butted “conference” or interview or publication.

If I were TPTB, or a TBTF bank, I’d be sure to watch court calendars. Then I’d schedule my hired-help (politicians and there ilk) to speak at some event that same day. Then I’d release a PR statement hyping that speech. Easy. This way, Sweeney will never make it to the headline level unless/until she makes a major decision, which she is loathe to do, obviously. And I don’t blame her. She probably is aware of the very personalized flavor of asymmetric response the TBTF are truly capable of arranging.
