WARNING: Put down all liquids, wrap your head with duct tape, and get your barf bucket close.

Watching this video is beyond disturbing because of the explanation of what happened to IndyMac and their mortgages.  The financial rape we (and our children) are currently enduring comes very close to the treasonous policy that allows our intelligence services to assassinate Americans they suspect of terrorism without due process.

Watch the entire video because it will explain in detail the money trail and why so few mortgage modifications are being made.  No wonder they would not allow the banking systems to collapse, there wouldn’t be any bad paper to make an outrageous profit off of.

The 33 branches of IndyMac Federal will reopen as branches of OneWest tomorrow. Depositors of IndyMac Federal will automatically become depositors of OneWest. Deposits will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there is no need for customers to change their banking relationship to retain their deposit insurance coverage. Checks drawn on the bank will continue to be processed. Loan customers should continue to make their payments as usual.

As of January 31, 2009, IndyMac Federal had total assets of $23.5 billion and total deposits of $6.4 billion. OneWest has agreed to purchase all deposits and approximately $20.7 billion in assets at a discount of $4.7 billion. The FDIC will retain the remaining assets for later disposition.

FDIC and OneWest have entered into a loss share transaction on the single family residential portfolio. Under terms of the loss share agreement, OneWest will continue the FDIC’s existing loan modification program.

Interested parties can also visit the FDIC’s website at http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/IndyMac.html.

IndyMac Federal sustained losses of $2.6 billion in the fourth quarter 2008 due to deterioration in the real estate market. The total estimated loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund is $10.7 billion. No further payments on receivership claims for uninsured funds from former IndyMac Bank, F.S.B. will be distributed as a result of this transaction.
