Just last month the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), the agency responsible for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, responded to our FOIA lawsuit by telling us that all of the documents we seek are not "FOIA-able"! Here's the exact language the Obama agency used in its recent court filing: "...Any records created by or held in the custody of the Enterprises reflecting their political campaign contributions or policies, stipulations and requirements concerning campaign contributions necessarily are private corporate documents. They are not 'agency records' subject to disclosure under FOIA."

WELCOME TO THE USSR!!!
Gotta give Sandy Berger a chance to get over there first.
The orders are from David Gregory’s wife.
YOU WILL NOT HEAR ABOUT THIS ON THE MSM NEWS.

When did Fannie and Freddie become “private” corporations?

This is just so much BS!!! These little fifedoms of preferential party finance and influence have got to be exposed. It’s not their damn money! If they aren’t willing to open their books, THEY ARE HIDING SOMETHING!
