We know it's not just Cook, he's trying the same shit with Schiff saying him claiming a Maryland home as primary residence is fraud.

And with Tish James.

He told everyone during the campaign he was on a revenge tour. Were people not listening?
They heard it and want this.
His voters and those who didn’t vote, didn’t listen. They had already decided what they would do based on hate.
🎯
Trump hates Black people! He has targeted every Black female in higher positions than what he deems appropriate for his definition of appropriate! Going after Smithsonian for Black history ! He wants to erase their struggle and hard earned positions in society!
Aside from the fact that he's living in Vegas (hard to get to work in DC on time), flying to sporting events on government planes, and should be drug tested on a regular basis? I believe he's already lost one of his government jobs for being a no show as the acting chief of the ATF.
I once deposed someone who bought 100 condos on the same day representing in each purchase that it would be his principal residence. He testified that he meant it each time.
Seems like Cook is being targeted for the sin of owning two homes.
Abuse of authority and resources
Spread it far and wide, and save it for when the DOJ is back to normal business with no political fear nor favor. Mr. Pulte may well find himself on the wrong side of the law.
Who in this administration is not corrupt? Seriously, is there anyone?
No. That was the plan. Put Trump stooges in charge of everything.
I do believe that, but also worry how many will suffer & die needlessly before that happens? 😓 The cruelty is heartbreaking. 💔❤️🩹
We are already seeing that happen.
There isn't. They are actually competing with each other to see who can reach the bottom first and it seems their leader is way out in front but he's an age old expert.
No
I didn't think so.
If Trump gains control of the Federal Reserve Board will he be able to clean out our bank accounts?
That's not what the Fed does, and even if it were, why would he need to? Roughly 60% of US adults can't cover a $1,000 emergency expense with savings. About 40% of Americans don't have any money saved for retirement. 53% said grocery prices were a major source of stress. The money isn't there.
He doesn't need our bank accounts. The US government makes the money. So he can have them make as much money as he wants.
every fucking day it's another nightmare.
Does anyone know how to spell anymore?
I still can’t get over the fact that the person calling foul is Donald Trump, literally one of the biggest, well known text book frauds of all time.
Worth wondering how these members of trumpworld got this information about trumps political enemies
I suspect DOGE created a monster database of all the information they downloaded from various agencies.
Not shocking: Dick Tater wanting to run the Fed like he wants to run everything else. Not shocking: He targets a black woman. Not shocking: Congress does nothing. Shocking: That investors aren’t running for the door. Yet.
I dunno but trump world people have mortgage docs too, and I hope some Democrat is scouring over them and preparing for court
Has anyone gotten any good estimate of exactly which data DOGE accessed from the various agencies? They could probably cross-reference it with their various enemies lists and get results instantaneously. In this case though, I think the guy specifically asked for the files to be pulled.
Convicted felon has a way of searching for dirt on all his "enemies".
Why would they be so invested in a deep dive into this particular Fed Governor?
Pulte has his head so far up trump’s ass, it’s amazing he can see anything more than the polyps in his colon.
I guess they got it the same way they did on the Texas AG Ken Paxton was received. He only had three mortgages as primary residences.
Doge. Musk’s invasion of everything.
Anybody thinking, “what’s the harm in consolidating these datasets” now has their answer. The obvious question: how do you know the information you are basing your assumptions on is correct, if it was never meant to be used that way, and never had before?
@alt-text.bsky.social
I would bet they're lying.
And why aren't more journalists asking this question!?
😂
This is both illegal and unconstitutional. The law must prevail and it will be a test of the validity of the SCOTUS. Certainly, it seems that the GOP has no backbone to stand up against this behavior.
So wasn’t Trump convicted of fraud? Let’s be sure to add that fun fact every time they try to go at someone else.
If it’s illegally obtained does that make it inadmissible? Obviously depending on who nominated the presiding judge, apparently…
I'm guessing Palantir or just from backdoors DOGE put in?
Wouldn’t even need to do that. Underwriting is automated and has been for years, you literally could just pull the mtg files usually based on the name or address. This is the Fannie system and it’s been around about 20 years: singlefamily.fanniemae.com/applications...
The head of the FHFA is a total hack. You don’t need a super secret back door when the guy in charge wants to hand over the information
And he’s made himself the head of Fannie and Freddie
www.daylightaml.com/blog/the-pul...
All they gotta do is look up the info of anyone they don't like, they have access to all of this stuff. I can't imagine you would find anyone who owns multiple properties who list them as secondary properties.
I'm thinking illegally?
If we do not already have it, we need the equivalent of HIPAA but for financial and other information.
I suppose they only get “tips” on Democrats and POC
bsky.app/profile/imda...
Remember when it was a red line to subpoena Trump’s tax returns?
Now do the Epstein files.
Its entirely possible this was literally an input error, and to be clear, if you are looking for "dirt" on things like mortgage application etc you likely to find it. What if dems take house and say, OK we want everyone in congress mortgage file pulled.
My college parking violation decades ago can jeopardize my stinking career.
The amount of occupancy fraud for millionaires/republicans must be egregious...this feels like 10000% projection
Turns out it's a really bad idea to hand a bunch of literal mobsters and goons full access to law enforcement, financial, and intelligence community data, because they will use it in the way that mobsters and goons do.
DOGE? They took just about everything… 🙄
@alt-text.bsky.social
You know that as soon as Trumb is gone NOT gone golfing but GONE GONE The Stock Market will jump 50% in the first 60 minutes.
All while Trump is arguing that his lying on loan applications caused no harm
Ken Paxton ….
They asked the banks, the ones who support this regime?
Yeah, and also, it would be really cool to just not have a situation where every politician has committed some sort of financial fraud or equivalent
Well gosh I’m sure all the Trump family mortgages are pristine, Molly.
They're using accusations of mortgage fraud to investigate everyone. There is no fraud. It's an invented excuse. And while he should resign, be won't. None of them will, and I don't know what we can do about it.
It’s starting to look like 2nd Amendment solutions are the only ways we have left.
Revenge and racism are tacos goals.
This is the kind of story the NYT and the Washington Post used to compete to cover. Those days are gone. The NYT has been cowed and the Post co-opted.
Hmm doesn’t Pulte Homes still need to sell houses?
Still feels surreal; every day, new horror at the whim of a buffoon.
I'd been wondering about exactly this point. Do US personal privacy protections not apply to mortgage applications?
They said “indictment” when they meant “investigation” and I thought I missed some news. Pulte seems to be working with Ed Martin and Trump to coordinate this.
Pulte's actions no doubt taken at the express direction of Fascist-In-Chief Stephen Miller.....
Needs alt-text
@alt-text.bsky.social
While ‘occupancy fraud’ is a real issue, where investors claiming owner occupancy default on mortgages at a higher rate, there’s no reason to believe that’s likely here (if it even qualifies as ‘fraud’ which seems doubtful). It’s also rarely investigated or prosecuted unless there’s a problem. 1/n
There’s no alleged problem (I know of), and the bigger issue seems to be where/how they are getting information they just publicly disclose as they see fit. (Mortgages are public records, but this seems to go beyond that). Wasn’t there some guy, fibbing on a loan application, claiming it’s no crime?
Donald Trump is the enemy of the people. #IHATEDONALDTRUMP This son of a bitch was Jeffrey #Epstein 's wingman for DECADES. #Rape #Fraud #Cheat #Lie #Asshole #ETTD our only saving grace is that everything Donald has ever tried has failed.

Alot of people are saying that Pulte is corrupt and needs to be investigated...
Texas AG Ken Paxton committed mortgage fraud, according to documents filed in his divorce proceedings. Not a single GOP member has called for his resignation or for him to be fired.
The entire GOP is an ongoing criminal organization
He has 3 primary residences. 😬
In fact- they had the chance to hold him accountable and deliberately chose not to
He has it coming! I wish for him what he wishes on women. I wish for him what he has done to innocent people in Texas.
The Nazi party runs Texas. Get rid of them or obey them, your call.
Oh, sweetie, we’ve been working to get rid of them for decades. They cheat in multiple ways: voter suppression and intimidation, gerrymandering, and flipping votes so they j-u-s-t squeak out victories. My choice is to keep working against them at every turn.
Wishing you only good luck and a continuing stout heart.
@keubiko.bsky.social the dogs are unleashed
Interesting how mortgage fraud has suddenly become the “thing” with the trump regime. My bet is a lot of real mortgage fraud can be found in donnie’s real estate dealings. Audit his mortgage records.
No need to guess, he was convicted of real estate fraud.
It's just readily available records that can be spun and leaked without any reasonable way to respond. When you are explaining you are losing.
And by really available, I mean the head of FHFA can get them for anyone he wants. It should be off limits but unlikely a hard stop.
Every accusation is a confession: Trump was convicted of what amounts to mortgage fraud in NY, and now he wants to accuse all his opponents of mortgage fraud.
📌
Not scrolling around that shit on a mobile phone.
MEDIA: Are you listening? Do you have any interest in reporting on this blatant corruption by Don Trump? Or any of the 24/7 blatant corruption by Don Trump? WAKE THE FUCK UP. Cracker Barrel is not a story!
Don’t hold your breath. He’s already got control over the media - nobody in MSM wants to risk criticizing Dear Leader. 🙄
Fucking hell.
If you buy a house as your primary residence with a mortgage, and then you upgrade to a bigger house as a new primary residence and get another mortgage while keeping your first house as second home; do you have to tell Fannie Mae that your first house is no longer your primary residence? Doubt it.
As far as I've ever seen, few non-Republicans are bold enough to blatantly put invalid information on any official document that could be found out about later, even if they are only contemplating running for an office at any level. Inadvertent mistakes are always possible since everyone is human!
He can't fire her.
Too little to read!
The hypocrisy is what gets me. Following Pulte’s logic, Trump should be the one stepping down. His guilt in mortgage fraud has already been established. Trump should resign right now.
@nbcnews.com @msnbc.com @nytimes.com @cnn.com
She was appointed under Biden. I have to think that they betters people and this should and would have come up when they nominated her for the role.
📌
Is this that same Pulte that builds residential homes? The Pulte Group?
Laughable, considering how much bank and insurance fraud Trump and his companies have committed. Anyone in the media going to ask… never mind.
Pulte already said he received a tip. That could be from his wife for all we know. I’ve said for two weeks a FOIA is needed and journalists need to do their jobs.
bsky.app/profile/imda...
Never buy a Pulte home again. Shun every Pulte community.
This is the guy who also is alleging Letitia James and Adam Schiff are guilty of mortgage fraud. Basically investigating all of Trump’s enemies without probable cause.
And without trying in a court of law.
is anyone surprised?
Someone needs to forward this to Lisa Cook.
Wondering if this will affect his new home sales in California.
📌
Lock #BillPulte up, then have a trial on inappropriate records retrieval. Or not; just leave him in jail. Also fine the actual employee who pulled the files, since Pulte himself would not know how.
Keep hearing the GOP whining about how “politicized” Democratic administrations were in areas like the FBI, DOJ, IRS, etc when the opposite is true. Republicans use lies to justify their own abuses of power. Why do they always get away with it, like their Big Lie, and never have to show evidence?
Grok?
Is Trump guilty of this?
