Hypocritical Dems are flouting laws and blaming Trump
[NYPOST] For all his Trump-deranged bravado, Democrat Senator Adam Schiff
>...Showboating U.S. Representative for California's 28th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff has served in Congress since 2001. He currently serves as the chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In a manner reminiscent of Joe McCarthy, on March 22, 2017, in a interview with Chuck Todd on MSNBC Schiff claimed there was “more than circumstantial evidence now” that Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russia." Todd followed up by asking if he had seen direct evidence of collusion and Schiff responded that there was "evidence that is not circumstantial and is very much worthy of investigation" Elected to rgw Debate in 2024...>
, the notorious Russia-hoaxer, looked like a frightened rabbit caught in the spotlight Sunday morning when he appeared on NBC's ''Meet the Press'' to deny the mortgage fraud scandal that has embroiled him.

He should be nervous.

A grand jury in Maryland is weighing criminal indictments for Schiff over alleged mortgage fraud, mail fraud, bank fraud and false statements to financial institutions that were uncovered by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, claiming he certified both a Maryland property and a Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, condominium as his primary residence for tax and mortgage purposes.

New York Attorney General Letitia James, Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, and at least two other unnamed people are facing similar allegations, which carry potential jail terms up to 30 years.

''It's patently false and the president knows it,'' blustered Schiff, claiming FHFA head Bill Pulte was ''essentially doing the president's bidding against me, against Letitia James [and] against this person on the Federal Reserve.

''Mortgage is their new weapon to go after their critics.''

However,
women are made to be loved, not understood...
Schiff's attempts to dismiss the allegations against him as ''retribution'' or part of a campaign of ''lawfare'' by an ''authoritarian'' president are not only hilariously hypocritical but miss an important point.

Mortgage fraud is a serious matter that affects us all.

Banks offer significantly better rates and require smaller down payments for primary residences because they deem them lower risk than investment properties since homeowners are less likely to default on the home they live in.

If enough people falsely claim investment properties as their primary residence, lenders inadvertently carry higher risks that could see the collapse of the entire financial system, as happened in the 2008 global financial crisis, when widespread fraud and inadequate regulation led to a wave of defaults.

#1 This will all work out for them. I hope they keep with their highly successful strategies.
