Pending litigation, have Federal officers remove her from her office in full view of the media.

I think her defense will be “I changed my mind” but that won’t hold up.

She has not been charged with any crime.

She needs to be charges and taken to court. Same for Schiff and Letitia.

Seems like mortgage fraud is contagious among many of our “esteemed” politicians, symptoms are greed, selfishness, and a strong feeling of being entitled to ignore the law.

She’ll resist but will lose. Signing the document to purchase and borrow against the Georgia condo two weeks after declaring a Michigan property as her primary residence was no accident and was intentional. A mortgage on a second home would not qualify for the lowest mortgage rate. She lied for personal benefit and gain. That seems to be a black and white issue without extenuating circumstances.

Direct the network admin to delete her user ID and passwords.

Change the locks to her office.

She can sit in the lobby and rant - or on the front steps with cameras.

I read she also subsequently rented one of the properties.

Honestly, these public figures look to save a couple thousand on mortgage payments and property taxes and down payment…is it all worth committing fraud?

I'm not sure how this works under federal law, but in the corporate world in states where I've done business there are several underlying principles of governance that are typically written into law:

1. If you have been charged with a crime that has any remote relationship to your work, you must step down from a corporate board where you have a fiduciary responsibility.

2. Even if you are not formally charged with a crime, you cannot serve on a corporate board if you are under investigation for a civil or criminal matter that has any relationship to your work and you've asserted your Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination in a legal proceeding.

The reasons for these are clear. If you are shielded under the Constitution from self-incrimination in a matter related to your work, then you have an obvious conflict of interest and cannot represent another party in a fiduciary capacity.

Those are rules.

Rules do not apply to Democrats.

And especially not Black Female Democrats..............

Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook

A fraudster as Federal Reserve Board Governor ,,,

Ya, I’d say she’s not trustworthy, and she shouldn’t be anywhere near the countries finances. Of course the Mobocrats think differently.

Now she’s x-Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa CRook.

Good riddance.

Being that she’s black, female, and Democrat, she likely felt she was untouchable

I think the Fed pays her paycheck, not Treasury. That will be interesting.
