31 The Real Game of Missing Money that the investigation of Hamilton was closed. Rodriguez’s second Insight article, in July 2001, described the successful outcome: “HUD Gives Up With Fitts” (https://dunwalke.com/gideon/ articles/Insight-HUD_Gives_Up_With_Fitts-2001-07-30.pdf). However, HUD Secretary Andrew Cuomo cut a deal with Ervin to make sure he would have funds sufficient to continue to litigate against Hamilton by himself. It was, after all, still a business—making sure the money could flow freely out HUD’s back door. One of my challenges was that globalization was by then well underway—and the climate of frenetic greed again made it feel like we were living in a “supermarket sweepstakes,” with every- one trying to fill up their shopping basket with foreign and privatized assets. America was also enjoying the housing bubble. There was widespread support for the bubble and criminal cash flows to continue.

In the fall of 2001, I was working with Kelly Patricia O’Meara on a cover story in Insight about what was, by then, $3.3 trillion missing from DOD and HUD. The story was scheduled to publish on Friday, September 14th and would be delivered to every Congressional office. On Monday, September 10th, Donald Rumsfeld held a press conference at the Department of Defense, confessing that DOD was missing $2.3 trillion. Kelly and I assumed he was trying to get ahead of her blockbuster story. That night I said to Kelly, “nothing can stop this story from going mainstream now.” Rumsfeld on the missing trillions – https://www.youtube.com/embed/xU4GdHLUHwU Those were “famous last words.” I learned on September 11, 2001 never to say “never,” especially when it came to trillions missing from the U.S. government.
