Jerome Corsi – Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin confirmed Infowars.com reporting was correct in an interview with Maria Bartiromo televised by Fox Business on Monday morning, May 1, 2017.
In response to a direct question, Mnuchin acknowledged it was true President Obama did engineer the “Net Worth Sweep” (NWS) in August 2012 to divert funds from the two Government Sponsored Entities (GSEs) to pay for Obamacare, after Congress refused to fund the low-income insurance subsidies critical to keep afloat the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
“There is a Twitter conversation going on, and it has been going on for some time, about how President Obama needed money for Obamacare and he took from Fannie and Freddie. Is that true?” Bartiromo asked Mnuchin.
“It is true,” Mnuchin replied.
“They [the Obama administration] used the profits of Fannie and Freddie to pay for other parts of the government while they kept taxpayers at risk,” Mnuchin answered.
On March 13, 2017, Infowars.com reported a careful analysis of the Treasury Department’s balance sheet for Fiscal Year 2013 documenting how the Obama administration diverted into Obamacare billions of dollars that Treasury confiscated from Freddie and Fannie earnings.
On Aug. 17, 2012, the Obama administration finalized the amendment of the Treasury Department’s Senior Preferred Stock Agreements with Fannie and Freddie that deprived private and institutional investors of their legally due dividend payments.
This enabled the Obama Treasury Department to confiscate billions of dollars in Fannie and Freddie earnings, in what is known as the “Net Worth Sweep,” or NWS.
