AoSHQ: Newsom gets paid by SVB

Democrat pol fingerprints and breadcrumbs are all over this mess. The Trump de-regulation argument is a red herring and misdirection. Even Barney Frank admits Trump has nothing to do with it. Biden tanked the economy, drove up inflation and the fed having to raise interest rates, and these failures followed. SVB bank

Barney Frank says Barack Obama lied about ObamaCare…

Barney Frank: "My political motto, very simple. I have always told the truth, and nothing but the truth. But I don't volunteer the whole truth in every situation."

While I agree with Barney Frank's assessment on Barack Obama's lack of candor about ObamaCare, I don't recall Barney Frank being entirely candid on his roll in the subprime mortgage meltdown and Fannie Mae.

Compare what Barney Frank said above to this:  The blatant lies of Democrat Barney "Bubbles" Frank

David Brooks even gets it:

This is how Washington works. Only two of the characters in this tale come off as egregiously immoral. Johnson made $100 million while supposedly helping the poor. Representative Barney Frank, whose partner at the time worked for Fannie, was arrogantly dismissive when anybody raised doubts about the stability of the whole arrangement.

There are obviously other persons, from both parties, who are also responsible for what occurred.  But Barney Frank was a central player in what happened.

Different kinds of bubbles:
Barney less formal.  Via Gawker.  Tiny bubbles!  Well Barney's are not so tiny.
