Watt was one of two Obama nominees who became the casus belli for Reid nuking the filibuster.
If Republicans couldn't back Watt, the argument went, the filibuster needed to go.
Watt repaid his Dem backers by announcing a "Dramatic" shift to expand mortgages to unqualified borrowers proving that Senate Republican opposition to Watt had been based on facts, not fears.
"I am confident that the investigation currently in progress will confirm that I have not done anything contrary to law," Watt insisted during the investigation.
A corrupt Democrat majority backed Watt and Americans, the FHFA and its employees paid the price.
Then Watt and Wertheimer became caught up in something more newsworthy when the FHFA leadership decided to abuse the agency in order to protect the sexual entitlements of its boss.
When we remember the downfall of the filibuster, we should not forget that it was nuked, with the eager cheers of the media and the political class who lectured us on Watt's "Sterling" character, to appoint a corrupt Democrat sexual harasser to one of the most powerful financial offices in the land.
