I would not look for the DOJ to help. They probably know all about it. A banking collapse is inevitiable. The 4 large banks have been insolvent for 3-5 years. They stay open because the Fed has been propping them up with TARP money. That is why the FED refuses to tell a Senate overisght committee who got the money. These banks should have been alllowed to fail 2 years ago in an orderly manner. A banking holiday has been on the way for a long time. Look for a 5 day bank holiday and then when they re-open there will be a new dollar and it will take about 3 old dollars to buy one new dollar.
Before I closed my mortgage business last year we heard through a BOFA source here that BOFA hd already received signs to put on their doors basically saying that they were closed until further notice by order of the Feds.
Most people have no clue that this is even a possibility. They will freak out when they cannot access their ATM machine or use the ATM card at the grocery store. Credit cards likely will not work either. Put some cash under your pillow to get you through a week without a bank. You are not going to want to be anywhere near a BOFA or Wells or Chase bank when this goes down. People will probably be lighting them on fire. The grocery store isn’t going to be any picnic either. You should have at least a couple of weeks of food stored up at home so you don’t have to go there.
There's no getting around that reality. The ponzi-market was designed for a spectacular collapse. Stern-Trumka-Obama-Holder-Bernanke are all playing on the same team.
We can't stop this... not with the federal government facilitating it. But now we know when. That's a gift to anyone willing to listen. Use it and prepare.
Maybe he claim Title IX exemption and Holder will leave him alone.
Try this one on for size and read past the first couple sentences and paragraphs:
It’s like a bunch of rich guys running around acting altruistic and claiming the death tax should be reinstated or at higher levels.
What they don’t tell you is their holdings include companies who profit from estate planning, income shelter, etc.
If the government has no death tax it is a direct competition to the insurance companies, law firms, Wall Street, etc.
Without the death tax there is no need for their services and such stringent estate planning.
Here is an excellent video explaining Warren Buffet and Berkshire-Hathaway. Get a cup of coffee and watch it. You will see the scheme explained and then you will get it.
Also note what companies he has acquired, how and why:

Warren Buffett Benefited From Death Tax

Wanna know why Buffet pushed for TARP bailout?
Suffice it to say Berkshire owned stock in some largest receipents of TARP valued at $13 billion around that time.
Here is the funny part:
Buffett increased his bank holdings in September, while he was arguing in the media that Congress should approve the bailout to prevent the collapse of the global financial system.
TARP was approved in October of that year, just one month later!
It’s good to be king!
He actually said “if he didn’t think the government was going to act(in a way that would positive and accretive to hihis holding) he wouldn’t have been doing anything that week”. (paraphrased)

BofA in April 2009 was around $4 per share and is now trading at $13.80 per share as of 3/02/2001
Wells Fargo in April of 2009 was around $11 per share and is now trading at around $31 per share.
How about US Bancorp trading at around $14 per share in April 2009 and now trading at about $26 per share.
Goldman Sachs Group trading at some $51 dollars per share has now zoomed to above $160 per share.
How about those poor folks at American Express trading at just above $10 per share in 2009 and now they are trading at about $45 per share?
Bottom line: We, the schmuck taxpayer, paid to enhance the holdings of companies like Berkshire and investors in Berkshire.
