Emails disclosed Thursday showed that the New York Fed instructed AIG to withhold from a securities filing information on the financial institutions that received taxpayer money in AIG's bailout. In other words, AIG was acting as a front for banks getting our tax dollars. The Fed will give cash to the AIG who in turn would give it to the banks.
That information remained secret for months, until Congress pressured the Federal Reserve to give it up in March, over the Fed's insistence that doing so would damage market confidence.A week after Fed Vice Chairman Donald Kohn was beaten up by senators for the failure to disclose the recipients, AIG published the list, which was topped by France's Societe Generale and Goldman Sachs.

Result? Nothing. Business as usual.
In a sane world, this would be reasonable cause for immediate termination of employment.
maybe even jail for the average joe
But Geithner not going away. ..nor I hope, Leitner; and neither is the issue of Obama's corrupted choice for TSA either.

OH! Did I say that Timmy gets kicked to the curb?
sounds more like transfering money to hidden funds and playing slight of hand.
And AIG is in London for the purpose of avoiding regulations.
“and replace it with he hopes are ‘better polls’ based on his performance today”
His act today was enough to make anyone throw up!
Personally if that illegal alien tried to shake hands with me ai would spit in his face!

And then we add conspiracy (secret agreement to commit a criminal act) and possibly a few other charges.
Any State AG’s out there with the guts to go after the zero's fair haired child?
He did not pay his taxes......Geithner is a CROOK!
“In a sane world, this would be reasonable cause for immediate termination of employment.”
I think the decision to toss Geithner under the bus has already been made. This information just makes it inevitable.
CT. Gov. is a Republican.
Safer, perhaps if you do not get in within 'spitting distance'!/lol.
That said; share your sentiments, at least. (Never could understand the 'reach out' to Bill Clinton's hands; nor parents pushing their children in front of him. Another pair of hands that I never wanted to 'get close to'./lol/sigh
