Was Newt an employee of Fannie & Freddie, or was he paid a consulation fee. Has Newt done something criminal? If so, he should be charged and tried. If not, it’s a non-issue.

None of the CEO’s or executives in any Dow 30, S&P 500, or Russell 2000 believe in it anymore, either. And have not in a long time.
