OneWest, which Mnuchin and associates bought and rebranded during the financial crisis, has previously been accused of racial discrimination in mortgage lending, including breaking so-called redlining laws.

A newly leaked memo suggests a bank formerly run by Steve Mnuchin — President-elect Donald Trump's pick for Treasury secretary — may have broken California foreclosure laws under his stewardship, according to a Tuesday report from The Intercept.

The 2013 prosecutorial memo alleges that the bank, OneWest, "rushed delinquent homeowners out of their homes by violating notice and waiting period statutes, illegally backdated key documents, and effectively gamed foreclosure auctions" between 2009 and 2015, The Intercept reported.

Mnuchin, who chaired Trump's national finance committee during the 2016 campaign, was already a controversial pick to head Treasury.

Negative attention is better than no attention. Every day, it's really the same. Another news scramble. Another wave of punditry, another sunset. This is like wavelets lapping on the beach. The waters are never still. We're standing beside Trumpy Lake.

One repeats it as is necessary, or ad infinity, whichever suits one best. You choose.

Warning. Do not opt for the infinite regressive 'n'. It is a bottomless pit.

Other than that... You know where this leads:
Mnu-cha-goplbrtzktrchaldrakmnop

Or maybe the same thing only different.

Google "Keith olbermann gq resistance YouTube" for all of them.

GQ is his sponsor. He's been kind of quiet during the holidays. Hopefully he'll be back soon.

Keep that Google search handy.
