Fannie Mae (FNMA)

[Robert from yahoo bd]

He did defend the nws in front of the SCOTUS, he did tell the D's that he wanted a "return" on the UST's "investment", BUT NOW he is faced with the prospect of handing over billions to a party that I am pretty sure he is idealogically opposed to.

One could argue that the nws was defended by SM BECAUSE his boss, DJT, wants the SCOTUS to move the needle a little more on the Unitary Executive Principle and that when he made the "return on the UST's investment" comment he was posturing for a stronger negotiating position and placating the concerns of the D's in the SBC.

Who knows, BUT 2 THINGS ARE CERTAIN:

(1). HE HAS LESS THAN 2 WEEKS TO ACT.
(2). HE WILL HAVE FAILED IN HIS STATED GOAL OF GETTING THE GSES OUT OF GOVERNMENTAL CONTROL WHEN HE WAS CAPABLE OF DOING IT BY SIMPLY AMENDING THE PSPA.

At this point, do you really think the current administration cares if they piss off the D's?
