Then they all had a hearty laugh!
Better question. Why hasn’t Barney Frank been arrested?
Start with Barney Fwank.
Perhaps there were no crimes committed.
I agree! why hasn’t anyone prosecuted Obama yet !?!
He’s the nations chief executive, is he not?
Is that his job?
The Republic needs a complete reboot and that includes throwing out every federal judge and not allowing any of them to hold a federal judgeship ever again. Worthless bastards ought to be made to all ride the circuit and I mean on horses like every one of them including supreme court justices did in the beginning. They need a dose of reality.
Why has no one in Congress, White House or the bureaucracy been charged??
That’s funny because I’ve been asking myself why haven’t any Federal “judges” been prosecuted for their disregard of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, legislating from the bench and their political activism. Our “judicial system” is very anti-Caucasian and anti-American! Stalin and Hitler would be proud though.
Why hasn’t our Chief Executive Officer (POTUS) been prosecuted?
The answer is in the first paragraph of the article...the statute of limitations has tolled in most if not all of these cases. And if it hadn’t, then this judge would be accused of all manner of dirty deeds and most of the subject cases would be near-certain mistrials.
Besides, we like and need our bankster masters.
Kudos to this Judge and many of us here have asked the same thing over and over.
There is an answer though - You have to begin at the top and that would be the Freddie/Fannie execs who cooked the books and lied to congress to preserve there mega-bonuses prior to the collapse. Many of them were diehard Clintonistas and elite progressives so they had top-cover. The statute of limitations is now expired on this stuff.... Issa missed his chance for a most meaningful series of hearings and one can only conclude they are all in on it.
Enron costs the public very little people went to jail - Fannie/Freddie cost our nation trillions and nobody went to jail. Go figure.
The banks would also have an interesting defense that they were only doing what congress and the DOJ demanded they do - increase diversity in their portfolios regardless of the ability of the loan recipient to pay. The banks gave the politicians enough sugar to be able to originate the loan making a bit of money and then dump the bundled crap on the government supported entities. Pretty soon, everyone to include Freddie/Fannie began to package this crap as mortgage backed investment instruments and the Feds/congress/bankers told the whole world how shiny these turds were and they were backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. and the rest is history.
If you think I am wrong, why did the Fed give so much of TARP to foreign banks? Hint - look at how heavily they were invested in our mortgage backed securities.
Countrywide Chris Dodd will be the last politician who is ousted. And he wasn't prosecuted, he just declined to run again.
I'm still waiting for Sarbanes-Oxley charges to be filed against Jon Corzine.

because it was congress’s fault?
There have probably been more people adversely affected by small businesses that fail - so why haven’t owners of failed small businesses been prosecuted! (Okay, just in case - SARCASM)!
Why haven’t Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Charlie Rangle, et al been prosecuted also?
Jaime Gorelick?
We have been paying hundreds of billions for border security we never received...
Who was made responsible?
Who was made to pay?
Who was made accountable?
