Trump unloads on Schiff …
President Trump on Tuesday demanded that California Democrat Adam Schiff be “brought to justice” over alleged mortgage fraud, following a federal housing agency’s criminal referral to the Justice Department concerning Schiff’s ownership of a home in Maryland.
“I have always suspected Shifty Adam Schiff was a scam artist. And now I learn that Fannie Mae’s Financial Crimes Division have concluded that Adam Schiff has engaged in a sustained pattern of possible Mortgage Fraud,” Trump wrote on TRUTH Social.
“Adam Schiff said that his primary residence was in MARYLAND to get a cheaper mortgage and rip off America, when he must LIVE in CALIFORNIA because he was a Congressman from CALIFORNIA. I always knew Adam Schiff was a Crook. The FRAUD began with the refinance of his Maryland property on February 6, 2009, and continued through multiple transactions until the Maryland property was correctly designated as a second home on October 13, 2020.”
Trump added: “Mortgage Fraud is very serious, and CROOKED Adam Schiff (now a Senator) needs to be brought to justice.”
From The New York Post:
A senior administration official told The Post that the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which oversees Fannie Mae, has sent a criminal referral to the Justice Department requesting further investigation.
“It is extremely serious and [Schiff] is not taking it seriously,” said that official — who said the senator could face a criminal count for each time he paid his monthly mortgage.
Schiff is a former House intelligence committee chair whose claims about Trump’s ties to Russia enraged Republicans and led to his censure. He also served as chief manager in Trump’s 2020 Senate impeachment trial for pressuring Ukraine to investigate alleged Biden family corruption.
Schiff denied wrongdoing in messages posted Tuesday to X.
“Since I led his first impeachment, Trump has repeatedly called for me to be arrested for treason. So in a way, I guess this is a bit of a letdown. And this baseless attempt at political retribution won’t stop me from holding him accountable. Not by a long shot,” Schiff wrote.
