Pulte made criminal referrals against New York Attorney General Letitia James and Sen. Adam Schiff.

NBC News reported:

In his role leading the agency, Pulte has targeted Democrats whom Trump perceives as his political enemies. In March, Pulte made two criminal referrals against New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleging insurance fraud, several months after Trump’s Justice Department failed to prosecute her for a third time. James’ lawyer, Abbe D. Lowell, called the allegations “baseless.”

In May 2025, Pulte sent a criminal referral to the Justice Department for Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., another Democrat against whom Trump has sought retribution. The probe into mortgage fraud allegations against Schiff, which he denied, ultimately stalled.
