Hypocritical Dems are flouting laws and blaming Trump – they are missing an important point in the process
Miranda Devine
For all his Trump-deranged bravado, Democrat Senator Adam Schiff, 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 California 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, 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.
