Nadler and NY Delegation Assail Iowa Attorney General for Excluding NY Attorney General from Mortgage Settlement Talks
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Tuesday, August 30, 2011
NEW YORK, NY – Today, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution, and 20 members of New York’s congressional delegation chided Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller for his dismissal of New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman last week from ongoing mortgage settlement negotiations, demanding that Attorney General Miller explain how he intends to ensure that New York’s interests are represented during the remainder of the negotiation talks. The national committee of state Attorneys General are working to settle numerous complex legal matters arising from the 2008 housing collapse.
“As members of the New York congressional delegation, we are united in fighting for a fair resolution of the housing crisis that has devastated tens of thousands of families across our state,” the members wrote. “That is why we are deeply troubled by your recent action to silence New York’s voice by removing New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman from an executive committee negotiating a nationwide settlement with the banks. We ask that you explain how New York’s interests will be protected as negotiations move forward.”

The Honorable Tom Miller
Attorney General
1305 East Walnut Street
Des Moines, IA 50319
Dear Attorney General Miller:
As members of the New York congressional delegation, we are united in fighting for a fair resolution of the housing crisis that has devastated tens of thousands of families across our state. That is why we are deeply troubled by your recent action to silence New York’s voice by removing New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman from an executive committee negotiating a nationwide settlement with the banks. We ask that you explain how New York’s interests will be protected as negotiations move forward.
New York’s homeowners and investors have been hit hard by the economic impact of wrongdoing related to the mortgage crisis. According to the FBI, New York ranked as one of the top ten states for known or suspected mortgage fraud activity for two consecutive years. It also was one of the top ten states for reports of mortgage fraud across all originations in 2010. Undoubtedly, our state, the third largest in the nation, deserves a seat at any negotiating table that could potentially limit our state’s ability to investigate and penalize wrongdoing done within our borders.
Raising legitimate concerns about elements of the proposed settlement is a responsibility of every member of the executive committee and should never be the basis for silencing a viewpoint. Your removal of Attorney General Schneiderman sets a dangerous precedent for other attorneys general who, out of fear of what might happen, may choose silence over voicing valid concerns with particular aspects of the proposed settlement. Moreover, your attempt to banish opposition rather than address varying viewpoints undermines both the validity of the process and any settlement reached by the committee.
New York deserves adequate representation during the remainder of the mortgage settlement negotiations. We look forward to hearing how you will ensure that New York’s voice is heard.
Sincerely,
Jerrold Nadler

Ltr to Miller Re Schneiderman Dismissal August 2011
Maybe Ron Paul can straighten out the Iowa AG with a little History lesson about Andrew Jackson 1835. He paid off the debt and took back the government that was then run by the bankers. They know how to asume a bought government.
I read the whole letter, including the signatures…. It must be authenic — Linda Green did not sign it.
interesting.
Nadler is my representative.
months ago, i ran to meet up w/ Nadler on the street as i spotted him as he was about to visit my councilwoman’s office.
i told him that we need his help and about how my family has been devastated by fraudclosure.
he responded blandly, “it is a court matter. you have to go through the courts.”
i told him that “the fraud is massive, fraud in the origination and foreclosure and is affecting many people. something has to be done. it has to go beyond the courts”
in his letter to tom miller, nadler states that the FBI says NY is in the Top Ten for both suspected mortgage
fraud and fraud in the origination.
do you think Nadler is finally getting it?
i’m glad he sent the letter along w/ other NY elected representatives.
This is now all about the attorneys and the courts making money and for those homeowners who do not get it they are being fed to the wolves….There truly are no protections for homeowners who do not know the massive and pernicious crimes that have been perpetrated against them to destroy them….This enourmous Hitler Plan by the ruling elite……..the attorneys are not going to tell you…. I was told by a county recorder’s office clerk from another county a while back that you have to have your i’s dotted and your t’s crossed before you go and see and attorney……This statement in itself is very telling of the broad scope of FORECLOSUREGATE…SCANDALOUS!!!!!… Homeowners can’t even trust the attorneys…..WOW!!!! HOW INCREDIBLY EVIL…… The entire Congress and the entire Obama adminstration should be forced to resign immediately………With a Government as worthless as this why do we even need a Government??????….The U.S. GOVERNMENT IS COMPLETELY CORRUPT AND DISFUNCTIONAL……
The Senate is full of Republicans, The Law Makers, …. where the F are they … blame the democrats all you want it isn’t the problem. Blaming the democrats tells me you don’t know squat.
I vent …. that wasn’t for you … the post got misdirected
Very good. Let’s see if Maryland will stand for the rights of its citizens as well.
Securitization will be equaled or nuetrilizaed by “Titanicization”. Eric Scneiderman will adopt that feature from his education from me. It was a military gesture I learned while stationed in St. Johns Newfoundland.while in trhe U.S. A.F.
Hi Ron Moss… Titanicization…….does that mean the same thing as mass deception?
I meant to say is Titanicization about THEIR criminal mass deception……The homeowners must be allowed to exit the mortgage fraud Ponzi Scheme Titanic and force the criminals who set America up to fail and are robbing her blind with financial weapons of mass destruction go down with their own pirate ship…….
Bloomberg reporting Pimco’s Bill Gross is now saying he was wrong for betting heavily against the U.S. debt..Bloomberg also reported back around the debt ceiling debacle that 4 Senators in the gang of 6 members of Congress are heavily invested in Pimco stock and our demise…..including some democrats……Sam Zell Calling for more U.S. home rentals..Traitors and treasonists working from within America want to get rich off of the New World Horder stealing everything away from the American people and handing it to the foreign multinational interest on a silver platter………OUR ENEMIES, WHO HATE OUR FREEDOM, HATE DEMOCRACY AND WANT A ONE WORLD GLOBAL GOVERNMENT FASCIST TOTALITARIAN DICTATORSHIP……THEY WANT TO OWN ALL OF THE WEALTH AND WANT ALL OF THE REST OF US TO OWN THE FALSE DEBT THAT THEY CREATE AND FORCE ALL OF US INTO A LIFE OF DEBT SLAVERY..A NATION OF RENTERS, A NATIONWIDE RENT-A-CENTER OF AMERICA….MICROCHIPPED, PAPERLESS CURRENCY SOCIETY……THESE CRIMINALS WORKING FROM WITHIN, BROKE THE SOCIAL CONTRACT, NOW THE PEOPLE MUST REVOLT…..!!!!!!!!!..NATIONWIDE TAX REVOLT, CREDIT REVOLT, MORTGAGE REVOLT, WE NEED A NATIOWIDE MARCH ON WASHINGTON…!!!!!!!….THESE CRIMINALS ON WALL STREET CREATED 40 TRILLION IN FALSE DEBT, OUT OF THIN AIR, BY THE — USE OF MANY FRAUDS……NOW THEY ARE SITTING ON 40 TRILLION IN COLLATERAL FRAUD, MONEY THEY NEVER LENT OUT….BACKED BY 8 TRILLION IN REAL ESTATE…..SO IN OTHER WORDS THEY ARE BANKRUPT………AS MANY AS 10 MORTGAGES ON ONE PROPERTY……..THEY ARE DESPICABLE…TRAITORS OF DEMOCRACY HAVE AIDED AND ABETTED IN THIS HITLER PLAN BY THE RULING ELITE….THE FEDERAL RESERVE IS AIDING AND ABETTING THE CRIMINALS BY COUNTERFEITING MONEY AND TRYING TO FORCE ALL OF US TO PAY FOR THEIR COHORTS ON WALL STREETS CRIMES……THEY HAVE DEVALUED OUR CURRENCY TO ZERO AND IT NOW TAKES 2 DOLLARS TO MAKE ONE DOLLAR……THEY ARE THROWING FREEDOM, DEMOCRACY AND THE U.S. CONSTITUTION AS WELL AS THE U.S. CONSITUTION, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA UNDER THE BUS……..MAKE WALL STREET PAY AND THEN THROW THEM ALL IN PRISON….AS WELL AS THE POLITICIANS AND ALL OF THEIR MINIONS AND COHORTS WHO HAVE GOTTEN EXTREMELY WEALTHY FROM OUR MANUFACTURED DEMISE…THAT STARTED ON 9/11…WE THE PEOPLE ARE COMING FOR ALL OF YOU TRAITORS AND TREASONISTS IN WASHINGTON AND ON WALL STREET…….!!!!!!!!!! BURN, BABY BURN!!!!!
I MEANT TO SAY THE U.S. CONSTITUTION AS WELL AS THE U.S. BILL OF RIGHTS ARE BEING THROWN UNDER THE BUS…
It is so obvious that every word you say is true. It is hard to imagine this could happen to America. More people see this than these criminals think. Most of my friends, relatives and customers see this with their eyes open wide. These criminals are used to people with their heads in the sand, watching TV, however the crimes has become so outrageous and effected every family that they have woken in fear to what has become of America and see it for what it is. I believe the elections will show this and the bought politicians have seen their last days in politics. Public demonstrations in controlled non violent protest are going to grow. There is so much anger. Americans use their heads also. We dont want harm to any American in a violent protest. The masses protesting in non violent protest will show the bought politicians they chose the wrong path. The tax payers pay them for honest servicing doing their fudiciary duties to protect us from these crimes, not set us up to be victimized. Law suits against the bought politicians who breach their fudiciary duties and violate their honest service need to be filed. There are laws against these acts of greed and corruption. The “Wall Street and the Financial Crisis;anatomy of a Financial Collaspe”, the investigative report for the senate, and tataltail law suits coming out should be evidence enough to bring law suits with all the elements of “RICO” and the above against the government officials that have been proven to be bought off. We all know I vent is stating the absolute truth of the matter.
Wow …………… well written and delivered …… Keep up the fight Ivent !
Ask Miller to resign:
Iowa Attorney General
1305 E. Walnut Street
Des Moines IA 50319
Phone: 515-281-5164
Fax: 515-281-4209
Massive phone calls and a wave of public out cry works! Send this message to everyone you know. E-mail and call Tom Miller and every politician that choosed to block justice and not do his or her fudiciary duty for the American people, from the borrower to the investor. There is no reason to support the lenders they are all in the same corruption barge, (not boat) running America into the ground. Pilfering and destroying our way of life, freedom and democracy. E-MAIL AND CALL THEM EVERYONE!
I agree with you 100% Shelley. Silence will be deadly…….Massive complaints must be phoned in, e-mailed and filed en masse……Let them know we know the TRUTH about this HITLER PLAN BY THE RULING ELITE and we are NOT going away until justice is served and this playing field is leveled for HOMEOWNNERS that DID NOTHING WRONG…..We The People thought we were doing the right thing buying a home and supporting Americas economy….Little did we know we were duped into feeding the foreign elite beast who were out to destroy America….!!
I disagree HMR. It likely has no teeth at all. And how could it? Miller is under no obligation I am aware of to respond to a New York congressional delegation (NYCG).
I believe the NYCG has taken a necessary step, and has articulately asked pertinent and important questions.
But as above I am not aware Miller has any obligation to report back to them.
NOW THIS….HAS REAL SUBSTANCE TO IT…..NOW THE BALL IS IN THE PERPS COURT…IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT CROOKED IDEA THEY COME UP WITH NEXT! …………………IMPEACH PRESIDENT OBAMA!!
Fuck Miller……MYpoint is…the pressure is mounting and excuses is all they have!
Agreed.
But I still don’t expect ANY ONE in, or ANY BRANCH of, government to do anything truly useful. Justice, if there be any, will only be coming to individuals that have fought long and hard.
They are a cabal of liars and treasonists……it is catching up with all of them……the people are waking up……..everywhere I go more and more of MAINSTREET are waking up to FORECLODREGATE and the massive cover up for this massive Hitler Plan that all started on 9/11…bin laden was a scapegoat like Lee Harvey Oswald, a ruse, a distraction for the real bin ladens, the financial terrorists on Wall Street……and at the Federal Reserve….to destroy America from within………This whole Hitler Plan we are all living right now began in earnest when these same terrorists assassinated J.F.K..That has been confirmed to me by QUALIFIED and HIGHLY REPUTABLE SOURCES…
FORECLOSUREGATE IS THE COVER UP FOR THIS HITLER PLAN BY THE RULING ELITE….. THEY ARE EVIL AND WANT TO STEAL _EVERYTHING_ FROM THE PEOPLE……….
But, S.M. We have to start gaining ground somewhere……………..and my gut tells me this is it!
