Todd Blanche, Ed Martin, and the efforts to derail the prosecution of Adam Schiff and others for obvious mortgage and/or election fraud.
Background
In April 2023, Californian Chris Bish provided us with documentation indicating that Adam Schiff was allegedly committing mortgage and/or election fraud. Authorities in the Biden Administration refused to do anything, so Bish went to Congress. Congress passed on it as well.
When others showed up earlier this year with accusations of mortgage fraud committed by other top Democrats like Letitia James, Bish shared her reporting again. It looked like Schiff was finally going to be indicted.
Then, suddenly, reports surfaced that there was insufficient evidence to indict Schiff. However, Bish responded to say not to worry, as she was on her way to DC to discuss with government officials the mountains of evidence showing that Adam Schiff was committing mortgage and/or election fraud.
Looks like someone’s getting their talking points straight from MSNBC or Adam Schiff’s team because they *really* want this to disappear.
But here’s the problem for them: I’m the author of the report that initiated the DOJ referral, and I’m the key witness. I would know if this… https://t.co/oyhE4IXbtK— Christine Bish (@BishForCongress) November 16, 2025
Bish ended up covering her own costs to travel to Washington, DC, and share what she had uncovered involving Schiff’s alleged mortgage and/or election crimes.
What Bish never expected was that the individuals she met didn’t want to know about Schiff’s crimes; they wanted to know about Bish’s conversations with the DOJ’s Ed Martin, Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte, and others.
Next, Deep State reporter Ken Dilanian reported that Ed Martin and Bill Pulte, who were investigating Adam Schiff’s mortgage crimes, were the ones being investigated by the DOJ’s Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche.

We discussed this situation, the investigation, and the new developments allegedly implemented by Todd Blanche in the War Room on Friday, November 21.

After our segment on the WarRoom, Chad Mizelle came to Todd Blanche’s rescue.
This is the completely wrong take.
In any investigation—and particularly any high-profile prosecution—you make sure all your bases are fully covered. This means knowing where the initial referral and all the evidence came from.
You need to know who is talking to who. Because… https://t.co/5apa3rMDc8

The problem is that, per the Conservative Treehouse, Chad has quite a story working deep inside the Deep State.
I have continued to point out that Chad Mizelle was Rod Rosenstein’s chief legal counsel during the first term of President Trump. As Rosenstein’s legal counsel, it was Chad Mizelle who literally wrote the “scope memos” that authorized the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel to investigate President Trump.
Mizelle also wrote the expanded scope memos for Mueller and Andrew Weissmann that permitted the targeting of Michael Flynn Jr, Michael Flynn, George Papadopolous, Paul Manafort and more. Chad Mizelle would have intimate knowledge of Rosenstein’s intent to hire Robert Mueller, before, during and after the Special Counsel was appointed.
Because of everything above, Chad Mizelle was always looked at with strong suspicion. There is no way to intellectually reconcile Chad Mizelle as a good faith actor knowing the intents and purposes of Robert Mueller. It just didn’t make sense.
When Mizelle left the DOJ:
Todd Blanche, deputy attorney general, said: “Chad’s tenure at the Department has been marked by exceptional leadership and dedication to the Department. He provided Attorney General Bondi and all of us with outstanding counsel, and his steady hand helped guide our work. Chad played a key role in advancing the President’s America First agenda here at the Department, and his efforts strengthened our mission to protect the American people.” (link)
All of that may be true. However, it is also true that without Chad Mizelle there would never have been a Robert Mueller investigation and expanded scope memos for Andrew Weissmann.
This wasn’t enough for the Deep State. They managed to encourage John Solomon to claim that the DOJ was not investigating Ed Martin.

The problem with Solomon’s piece was that he used Chad Mizelle as one of his sources, and his other source was anonymous.
This Is Not Over
This week, Chris Bish provided more information about her discussions in Maryland in November, when she expected to present evidence related to Adam Schiff’s mortgage and election fraud. She also discusses the mortgage fraud case against Letitia James, which the DOJ similarly addressed. Bish’s post is consistent with what she told us in November about her trip to Maryland.
I was subpoenaed before the grand jury in the Adam Schiff case. That investigation is still open. When I showed up in Maryland, the DOJ made a very deliberate choice: pull me out of the grand jury room, question me privately, and tell me I would be called back later.
And here is the red flag.
They did not ask about a single detail of the evidence against Adam Schiff. Not one.
They were focused on the “investigators”, not the crimes.
That is the strange behavior we are now seeing with Letitia James.And here is the part that should worry everyone.
The three government officials who questioned me in Maryland have “nothing” to do with the Virginia team handling the Letitia James case. These are separate cases, separate evidence, separate jurisdictions, separate prosecutors.
Yet both cases show the same behavior:
▪️ Key witnesses kept out of the grand jury.
▪️ Zero interest in the evidence.
▪️ Intense interest in the people uncovering it.That does not happen by coincidence.
That does not happen by accident.
That comes from “higher up”.So the real question is not why Sam Antar was never called.
The real question is:
Who at DOJ is orchestrating this pattern across two states and two investigations?Because the evidence is solid.
The documents are unmovable.
And the only thing that does not add up is the DOJ’s behavior.And that tells you exactly where the problem really is.

Bish points out that there is something going on at the DOJ. That is the problem.
Republicans are not weak, and this Republican certainly is not.
What we are seeing has nothing to do with Republican resolve. It is something happening inside the Department of Justice.
Look at the pattern. Sam Antar was never called before the grand jury in the Letitia James… https://t.co/iQf9m9wEba

Deep State Blocking Schiff’s Mortgage and Election Crimes
In November, when Christine Bish appeared outside the Maryland Grand Jury, she expected to be questioned about the evidence of mortgage fraud involving Senator Adam Schiff. Instead, she was taken into a private room and interrogated by three officials, and not one of them asked a single question about Schiff’s alleged crimes.
The Assistant U.S. Attorney present was Christopher Sarma, who has held that position for nearly four years, including most of the Biden administration.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Inspector General’s office was represented by George Wahl. The timing immediately raised concerns because just days earlier, President Trump had fired the former FHFA IG, Joe Allen, after FHFA Director Bill Pulte issued criminal referrals against Letitia James, Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook, and Adam Schiff.
An FBI agent was also present.
Despite the subpoena’s purpose, the questioning focused not on Schiff’s documents, loan filings, or residency declarations, but on Bish’s supposed interactions with Ed Martin and her communication with FHFA leadership. Bish maintains she has never met or communicated with Ed Martin in any capacity. Her only contact was emailing the evidence in the Schiff case to the FHFA’s Bill Pulte, and only after Pulte’s office formally requested it.
The core question remains unresolved: why were federal officials more interested in the people pursuing accountability than in the alleged fraud committed by a sitting U.S. Senator?
Todd Blanche’s Mortgage Issue
Part of the reason the DOJ may want to stall investigations into mortgage fraud is that the DOJ may be involved in the fraud itself.
Todd Blanche, who is noted above, has a beautiful home in Palm Beach County, Florida. We know this because Todd and his wife took out a mortgage for $1.3 million on this home in 2023. Blanche represented President Trump in one of his New York cases.
What’s unusual is that Blanche also signed off on a loan with his son Justin in Maryland on June 30, 2020.
The documents show that Blanche’s son, Justin, signed the document based on a power of attorney; more importantly, the document indicates that Todd Blanche will occupy the property, as follows. This appears incorrect. Todd Blanche’s son should have checked that he was not living in the property.
Chris Bish shared her observations related to this report:
Let’s be clear about the Todd Blanche situation.
I am NOT alleging Blanche committed fraud. The documents show the opposite. He co-signed a mortgage to help his son, and Justin failed to check the box stating he wouldn’t occupy the home. A clerical mistake. Negligent, not intentional.
But here’s the issue:
Blanche is now tied to a mortgage document error at the same time the DOJ is steering away from cases involving mortgage fraud and false residency: Schiff, James, Cook, and others.
Is he embarrassed? Trying to avoid the appearance of hypocrisy? I don’t know.
What I do know is this:
That mistake puts him in a compromised position. And he must recuse himself from any case involving mortgage fraud or misrepresentation of residency.
If the DOJ wants credibility, it starts with no misconceptions and no exceptions.

What is really going on?
Bish points out that the mortgage fraud that Schiff committed led to his election fraud. He should never have been able to run for office in California after committing mortgage fraud. He was ineligible.
Anything other than the facts is a distraction.
