New criminal referral against Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook sent
Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte said Thursday night in a post on X that he sent a new criminal referral against Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook.
This is the second referral letter FHFA has sent to the Department of Justice about Cook. This one includes allegations related to a third property. The new criminal referral comes as President Donald Trump and other administration officials claim she misrepresented her residency status on applications for those home loans, improperly claiming both as her "primary residence."

"3 strikes and you're out," Pulte wrote in his post. "Today, U.S. Federal Housing sent a 2nd Criminal Referral in the matter of Lisa D. Cook, related to a mortgage on a 3rd property and alleged misrepresentations about her properties to the United States Government during her time as Governor of the Federal Reserve."
