The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has referred Sen. Schiff to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for mortgage fraud. It seems that for the past decade the Senator has claimed two different properties as his primary residence in order to get the lower mortgage rates allowed by the FHFA for a person's primary residence.
Schiff admitted that "for a number of years I inadvertently claimed both my Maryland house and my California condo as my primary residence because I thought as a member of Congress I was entitled to claim two primary residences--one in the state I represent and one near the Capitol where I work."
Schiff contrasted his situation with that of New York State Attorney General Letitia James who claimed properties in both New York and Maryland as her primary residence, saying "she doesn't work in the capital like I do. She works and lives in New York. Hers is blatant and calculated fraud rather than the inadvertent fraud I committed."

Can they hang him or just make his life difficult? Sounds like small potatoes and the rats are better at turning a mound into a mole hill.
I’m so old I remember the Dims saying Trump should go to prison for “lying” on loan forms about property values. Schiff should go to prison for lying about to his district about meeting residency requirements for holding office.
Meanwhile NY AG Peekaboo James committed mortgage fraud... just sayin’
HE CAN LIE ABOUT WHAT DAY IT IS.
THERE IS NOTHING TRUTHFUL AROUND THAT MAN
