Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte has accused several high-profile officials and Trump administration opponents of committing mortgage fraud — claims that have led to at least one Justice Department investigation.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Bill Pulte, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, got into an explosive argument last week.

Pulte accused Federal Reserve Board Gov. Lisa Cook of mortgage fraud, leading Trump to attempt to remove her from the board.

Republican lawmakers privately say they are fed up with the outspoken Federal Housing Finance Agency director.

Pulte has been leading social media attacks on Trump’s frequent target: the Federal Reserve. Trump has seized on his allegations of mortgage fraud against Fed. Gov. Lisa Cook, allegations she has repeatedly denied. Both Pulte and Trump have also disapproved of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s handling of interest rates.

President Donald Trump's historic decision to remove a member of the Federal Reserve board will likely head to the Supreme Court.

Bill Pulte — a private equity executive and social media philanthropist — has quickly become an outspoken fixture in the Trump administration’s efforts to overhaul the central bank and use a little-known agency to investigate perceived enemies.

The argument erupted at the Executive Branch, an exclusive new social club in Georgetown co-founded by banker Omeed Malik and Donald Trump Jr.

The state’s affordable housing needs are getting a boost from federal tax credits, tax-exempt bonds and a state loan program. The financing will help build and rehab 5,012 privately owned and managed affordable apartments — worth nearly $1.
