After the downgrade, the DOJ hit S&P with a $5 billion lawsuit. The DOJ extortion of untraceable billions explained thusly: “The fraud underpinning the 2008 [financial] crisis took many different forms, and for that reason, so must our response,” said one of Holder's henchmen. “This filing demonstrates the DOJ is committed to using every available legal tool to bring to justice those responsible for the financial crisis.”

Those responsible for the crisis? How about your stupid boss, Eric? The twisted, deranged community organizer who sued banks to give mtges to people on disability, welfare and food stamps----and now as president, is suing the same banks for "predator lending"---for burdening the "poor" w/ mtges they can't possibly payoff.

WHERE ARE THE BILLIONS GOING, ERIC? --- In his new book "Extortion" author Peter Schweitzer writes about Boobamba, Holder (and other insiders), using the Justice Dept "and assorted govt agencies" to extort and steal Big Money .... read on:

The price tag for the Wall Street bailout is popularly put at $700 billion—---the actual size of TARP--the Troubled Assets Relief Program. But TARP is just the best known program in an array of more than 30 overseen by Treasury Department and Federal Reserve that have paid out or put aside untraceable money to bail out financial firms and inject money into the markets.

To get a sense of the size of the real $14 trillion bailout, see MJ chart at web site. A guide to the pieces of the puzzle includes massive untraceable Treasury Department bailout programs.

In September 2008, the Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel announced that it would insure the holdings of publicly offered money market mutual funds. According to the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP), these guarantees could have potentially cost the federal government more than $3 trillion [PDF].

Public-Private Investment Fund: This joint Treasury-Federal Reserve program bought toxic assets from banks and brokerages—as much as $5 billion of assets per firm. According to SIGTARP, the government's potential exposure from the PPIF is between $500 million and $1 trillion [PDF].

TARP: As part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel made loans to or investments more than 750 banks and financial institutions. $650 billion has been paid out (not including HAMP; see below). As of December 21, 2009, $117.5 billion of that has been repaid.
