Overview

  • Ed Martin said on Fox News that there is "more on Adam Schiff" beyond an existing mortgage-fraud referral tied to the senator’s loan documents.
  • FHFA Director William Pulte previously referred Schiff over alleged falsified records and primary residence claims from 2003 to 2019, allegations Schiff rejects.
  • Martin told viewers that unpardoned members tied to the House Jan. 6 committee should watch for inquiries, signaling broader scrutiny.
  • Martin was seen examining New York Attorney General Letitia James’s Brooklyn property as part of a separate mortgage-fraud inquiry stemming from an FHFA referral; James denies wrongdoing.
  • Legal critics, including former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner, condemned Martin’s public disclosures as irresponsible and politically driven.
