Top pick for White House Chief of Staff was a lobyist in the pay of Goldman, Citigroup, Fannie Mae.....

[Happy Face 29]

Tom Donilon, President Obama’s current deputy national security adviser, is rumored to be in line as the next White House chief of staff if Rahm Emanuel does what we all expect he’ll do, and run for mayor of Chicago.

 

Given Obama’s talk about “exclud[ing] lobbyists from policymaking jobs,” and stopping the revolving door between the executive branch and K Street, Donilon would be a rich pick.

 

He was a top lobbyist at Fannie Mae during the housing bubble, when Fannie fought — with Democratic help — to avoid any restrictions or curbs on its work to inflate home values and get more people under mortgage. Before that, Donilon was a lobbyist at O’Melveny and Myers, where Fannie was a client.

 

In 2008, according to his financial disclosure forms, Donilon was a paid consultant for Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and Apollo Investments.
