So long as the FHFA acts in a way that benefits itself and by extension the public it serves it can continue to hand out benefits to its targeted political voter base.

How many folks on your favorite side of the aisle EVER mention releasing the GSES from the 15+ year CONservatorships?

(draws a giant zero)
Hutz: I think we should take it.
