Trump Calls for Schiff To Be Jailed Over Mortgage Fraud: ‘Big Trouble’

“If the answers to those questions are undisputed, there is nothing to have a trial about,” Gross told the outlet. “Often, you just see some sort of payment included as part of a plea deal, so there would probably be a fine, there would be restitution, there may be some other sanctions.”

In a Truth Social post this week, Trump called Schiff a “scam artist” and claimed he obtained a mortgage for a Maryland home in 2009 but only designated it as a second home in 2020 as part of a ruse to get better rates and terms from the company, which has been in federal conservatorship since the 2008 financial crisis.

The president stated that Fannie Mae’s Financial Crimes Division had discovered the suspected wrongdoing.

“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 in part.

“Mortgage Fraud is very serious, and CROOKED Adam Schiff (now a Senator) needs to be brought to justice,” Trump added.
