I think the days of a quick resolution on this whole clusterf**k are in the rear view mirror. From what I understand, the Collins Plaintiffs originally focused on the validity of the INITIATION OF THE NWS (AUGUST 17TH, 2012). We've got plenty of smoking guns showing bad actors in the government on its CREATION.
What the SCOTUS decision said was (1) sure the FHFA Director can legally (but NOT unconstitionally) do whatever it wants so long as they are in the interests of the FHFA or the public it serves and (2) the CREATION OF THE NWS IS NOT A SEPARATION OF POWERS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE POTUS EVEN THOUGH HE WAS PREVENTED FROM FIRING A CONFIRMED DIRECTOR AT WILL HE ALWAYS COULD FIRE AN ACTING DIRECTOR and because of that the Collins Plaintiffs can only seek retrospective relief from the IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NWS.
Indeed, just last night, the POTUS fired the head of the SSA, based on Collins and Seila Law.
So, that means on remand to the 5th Circuit, the court will focus on a remedy that deals only with the time periods involving a SENATE CONFIRMED DIRECTOR!
Wouldn't the Collins Plaintiffs be interested in asking the Judge in the 5th Circuit on remand for expanded Discovery to obtain intra governmental communications involving the implementation of the nws between a confirmed director and the POTUS administration?
If the Judge says yes, it could take awhile to gather those documents from an overly reluctant government adversary. So, I wouldn't expect a prompt resolution to this clusterf**k!
Of course you know the government will file a Motion to Dismiss based on some theory that I haven't figured out yet, and that could stop the Collins Plaintiffs in their tracks.
In the meantime the dollar for dollar increase in the LP continues but due to the governments voodoo accounting it builds much needed capital after the government took all of our net worth for 7 years!
