Lisa Cook's Fed Fraud: Biden's DEI Pick Gets Cooked

Lisa Cook’s fall from the Federal Reserve is the perfect example of what happens when Biden’s woke diversity obsession runs headfirst into reality. Cook—hailed as Biden’s “historic” first Black woman Fed governor—just got tossed from her cushy seat after Trump’s Justice Department uncovered her mortgage fraud schemes.

From the very start, critics blasted her appointment as nothing more than a box-checking exercise for the DEI crowd. Turns out, they were right. Cook allegedly pulled the oldest rich-person tax dodge in the book: claiming two different houses as her “primary residence” back in 2021. While she lectured Americans about “economic justice,” she was quietly gaming the system to save herself a fortune.

The takedown came courtesy of Trump ally William Pulte, now head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, who caught Cook’s shady dealings and kicked the case to DOJ investigators. Social media lit up: “She’s been playing fast and loose with the rules,” one X user posted, racking up 15,000 likes. Instead of taking responsibility, Cook cried about being “bullied,” but voters aren’t buying her victim routine.

Her downfall is just the latest reminder that the Left’s obsession with hiring based on melanin and identity politics instead of merit only ends in disaster. When you value skin color over character, you don’t get trailblazers—you get fraudsters. And when those fraudsters are running the U.S. economy, every business owner and family pays the price.
