She's another person, governor of the Board of the Federal Reserve, who has been accused of mortgage fraud.
This is another one of these things.
No, the referral didn't come from predication through a bank.
It came from Bill Pulte, who is the head of the FHFA, who revealed these red flags, I suppose.
But it's been determined that on other documents, she indicated that the Atlanta property would be a vacation home.
And so you have to look at the whole context, the totality of the circumstances.
You can't pluck out one red flag and say, therefore, she's guilty of a crime.
Yeah.
And I think most of us at the time who worked at the Department of Justice realized just how awful that was, what a deep violation of the norms it was.
It was an arrogant act, I think, by James Comey.

I think that would have been more appropriate.
