Trump Demands the Resignation of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook After Revelation of Her Alleged Mortgage Fraud

I don't think that top federal banking officials should be allowed to commit mortgage fraud. I know that's a controversial opinion (on the left, at least).

Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte has referred possible criminal activity involving Federal Reserve Governor Lisa D. Cook to Attorney General Pam Bondi for investigation and action as appropriate. Pulte's letter states, "According to mortgage documents obtained by U. S. Federal Housing, it appears an individual, Ms. Lisa DeNell Cook, has falsified bank documents and property records to acquired more favorable loan terms, potentially committing mortgage fraud under the criminal statute."

Since at least May 2022, Cook has been required to live in the Washington, D.C., metro area. Her exact date of moving to D.C. is unclear, but she was part of Joe Biden's transition agency review team as of November 2020 and was nominated for the Federal Reserve job in January 2021. The shenanigans started in the summer of 2021.
On June 18, 2021, Cook took a fifteen-year mortgage for $203,000 for a house in Ann Arbor, MI, which she said was to be her "primary residence," and she promised to live there full-time for at least one year." A mere fourteen days later, she took out another mortgage for a condo in Atlanta's "Above the Four Seasons" building for $540,000. Again, she stated this would be her primary residence and she would live there for at least one year. By September 2022, her Atlanta condo was listed for rent but "a review of Ms. Cook's federal government financial disclosures for calendar years 2022 and 2023 indicate that she has not disclosed any rental income tied to this address." Hmmm... I wonder if the IRS is taking notes.

CNN doesn't understand what the big deal is.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday called on a top policymaker at the Federal Reserve to resign, after one of his allies alleged that she committed mortgage fraud.
In a letter dated August 15, Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte urged the Justice Department to investigate a pair of mortgages taken out in recent years by Fed Governor Lisa Cook.
On Wednesday, Trump referenced those allegations on his social media platform, writing that "Cook must resign, now!!!"
Pulte, a vocal Trump ally, has frequently criticized the Fed and its leader, Chair Jerome Powell, for not lowering rates. He also called for closer scrutiny of the central bank's costly refurbishment of its Washington, DC, headquarters.
"She needs to explain herself, but it's all there in black and white," Pulte said in a phone interview with CNBC on Wednesday. "I think she needs to resign quickly."
The new focus on Cook is an expansion of the Trump administration's intense pressure campaign against the Fed, specifically central bankers who aren't perceived as allies of the president.

CNN thinks the political story is that Trump wants criminals turned out of office, rather than the real political story, that high-ranking government officials Protected by the Democrat Party routinely commit serious crimes without any fear of punishment.

It's absolutely astounding how the Protected feel they are absolutely above the law. It's time to start putting them in prison, to encourage the others.

Say WHAT? Those prices shock me. In the SF Bay Area, $200k is what you tip the real estate agent. Even the most shambolic tumbledown shack in SF is $1.7 million, minimum. Even in outer lowclass Bay Are suburbs you're looking at $1.4 million for a random house in a sketchy neighborhood. Anything decent is $1.8 million and up (mostly up).

37 Chris Rufo demonstrated that she is also a serial plagiarizer in her academic work (of course).

In 2020, a University of Chicago economics professor mocked Black Lives Matter, so Cook tried to get him fired.

She came up with this gem when trying to get the guy fired, on June 14, 2020:

I agree with Angela Merkel and @FrankSchlibach [a MIT econ professor] that free speech has its limits. It should not be used to spread hatred and violate the dignity of other people. This is how you, Dr. Uhlig, used your words and your power – to spread hate. 8/N

Very similar to Tampon Timmy's statements on the campaign trail that of course he supported "free speech", but "free speech" of course did not include "hate speech" or "misinformation".

I don't know what they were telling her--but she is pissed.

Also, her attorney threw a bunch of shit in the letter about threatening to tell the court.

But it was 3rd grade reverse-psychology stuff. Like, to me, it was obvious he was trying to bait Martin into filing the letter himself in order to get facts before the judge that he knows would be excluded.

My friend Bernice's dad & my friend & classmate Angela's uncle was brutally murdered on April 4,1968 at 6:01pm at the Lorraine Motel. Bernice & Angela were 5 & 4 years old. He was a protester. His name was Martin Luther King, Jr. 1/N

That day, my uncle’s classmate, Christine King Ferris, lost her brother. And my uncle, Samuel DuBois Cook, lost a best friend, @MorehouseCollege classmate, and fellow intellectual. The Cooks and Kings have been friends and civil rights defenders for 3 generations. 2/N

93 From Lisa D.Cook's wiki page:

"Her research suggested that violence against African-Americans under the Jim Crow laws led to a lower than expected number of actual patents filed; however, a recent review of this research has revealed that the apparent drop in patents was merely an accounting error on her part, having failed to recognize that the source database no longer tracked the data in question."

And this person was setting fiscal policy for the entire United States economy.

My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.

The last state to own slaves was Maryland. A Union state.

Is that really why many of you Boomers feel Republican ? Because you never "owned" a slave ? Or an indentured servant ?

167 "Falsified bank documents and property records to acquired more favorable loan terms, potentially committing mortgage fraud under the criminal statute."

Say, I seem to recall the state of New York prosecuting some fellow named Trump for some incredibly minor version of this very same thing, that he "illegally" listed some expenses incorrectly, and therefore got a lower interest rate. I was informed this resulted in something like 35 felonies.

Dems wanted to play this stupid game, and at the time I recall saying "you don't want to play the game this way." be they didn't listen very well.

It was more common than escaping North for slaves to 'light off' to a nearby swamp or woodland and have a little vacation. Friends on the plantation would pass out supplies to them. When the owner cooled off enough to offer amnesty, the peeps would come back to work.
