First we had Letitia James, now this Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook has been caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

Trump 'Will Fire Cook' If She Doesn't Resign After Pulte Drops New Receipts

Who HASN'T fudged on their loan applications in government?

This chick and Letitia James and all the others (like Adam Schiff)

I read a number of websites claiming Trump is "weaponizing mortgages" and yet they conveniently forget it was they, particularly Letitia James, who did that first with their ridiculous devaluing of Trump's Mar-a-Lago property to make fraud charges stick. They fired the first shot in this; Trump is simply ferreting out the sins of his accusers. How is that weaponizing anything? They set the rules.

Turnabout is fair play.

At any rate it seems everyone in the higher levels of government are doing it. Yes, it's an issue now because Trump is applying the same standard to them with which he was judged, but in the end we either have laws on the books and enforce them or we should remove them from the books. The wink and nod has gone on for far too long.

Paperwork showed Cook applied for a condo loan in Georgia and said it was going to be her primary residence, thus getting more favorable terms. The condo went up for sale shortly thereafter and Cook applied for ANOTHER loan in Michigan as her "primary residence".

Cook, in a response to questions about this, said:

"I have no intention of being bullied to step down from my position because of some questions raised in a tweet,”

"I do intend to take any questions about my financial history seriously as a member of the Federal Reserve and so I am gathering the accurate information to answer any legitimate questions and provide the facts.”

What does she need to "gather"? It's fairly easy to disprove this assertion; just answer it and if needed then provide the paperwork. If she was living in Atlanta then she can get the building manager to say so (condos all have management). She could provide a reason for the Michigan mortgage application (I planned on staying in Atlanta but had to move suddenly...) Her non-answer is itself a powerful indication she's lying.

All she has done here is say "nuh-uh".

Cook was appointed a Fed governor by Joe Biden.
