FHFA Director Pulte is Confirmed by Senate, and Senator Warren is 0-2 in Trying to Derail Pulte
Bill Pulte was confirmed today as FHFA Director, and he has tweeted or retweeted on his X account some 20 posts in the few hours since the Senate vote was concluded.
This after Pulte had earlier deleted over 24,000 of his historical tweets during the period leading up to his confirmation.
On February 26, 2025, Senator Warren sought to recover Pulte’s historical tweets from X in an attempt to dig up dirt to derail Pulte’s nomination. X denied her request, stating that X was "committed to protecting the privacy of its users" and that Warren’s letter provided "no legal basis" to compel the release of the data.
After getting stiffed by X, Senator Warren wrote a letter to Pulte, seeking to have Pulte authorize X to release these deleted tweets to Senator Warren.
Senator Warren’s request was not fulfilled.
So Senator Warren’s second attempt to undermine Pulte’s confirmation failed.
This, after there was a prior attempt by Senator Warren that failed as well.
