Such bombastic language ... “DOOMED”. He’s not doomed; he doesn’t GAS. It’s additional cred for his brand.
CA will never desert its Schiff or it would have already done so long ago.
Still wondering how many NYS pols are cheating on their STAR applications...
Let him walk, with a felony conviction.
See how he likes it.
Exactly. Tish James is still running around with no repercussions from her mortgage fraud.
They’ve known about this for a while now. It’s not like they had no clue. They’ve been sitting on it for political reasons.
Nobody who cares can actually do anything.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
Is it being claimed that his loans on his CA property also claimed primary residence? That would be a slam dunk case, IMO. Otherwise, if the loan(s) on his CA properties during that time were for 2nd home, mortgage fraud would be a stretch since that would indicate intent to occupy the MD home as primary. Not sure residency in one’s state/district has the same definition, and CA homeowners exemption would use a state definition and be a state issue instead of Fed. As much as I despise this guy and would like to see him out of politics, I’m just not seeing it. Does the accusation hinge on using the same definition of primary residence between state and federal and/or between lending and eligibility for office? Could steer a cruise ship through those holes.
Well, I’d propose that he didn’t buy both at the same time and must disclose all his assets which would include his property in California. As such, he must disclose his California home as his primary residence. If not then he’d have to reclassify prior to being granted a primary residence home in Maryland. However, it sounds like he’s done this across 5 properties so ya he’s committed fraud.
He claimed his California condo as his primary residence to get favorable rates at the same time he was claiming his Maryland residence his primary. So it’s not about where he lives, it about the double claim. He can only have one primary residence.
