It’s not just Solyndra. There is $5 trillion missing since Obama was sworn in. And it seems to have just disappeared into the pit.

What they need is an experienced commercial lender and bank auditor to follow the money trail working in conjunction with a forensic accountant. As I’ve stated before, look at the Fed side as well. GAO can do a lot of the internal work under a competent IG.
