Do to the very nature of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, can’t they restrict/stop lobbyist money from going to pols? Does the Post Office make donations to politicians for example?

i believe that political donations from a u.s. government org such as the post office to be illegal.

that’s the point:

freddy and fanny are quasi-government institutions—part public, part private.

the donations from them to obamao, hillary, dodd, etc were possible because of this.
