When Boca Raton’s Bill Pulte – Donald Trump’s hatchet man in the president’s push to seize control of the nation’s Federal Reserve System – appeared before the U.S. Senate Banking Committee for his confirmation hearing in February, he thanked his wife for her “unwavering support.”

Not surprisingly, Pulte didn’t mention the important and illegal $500,000 conduit contribution Diana Pulte secretly made to Trump’s Super PAC Make America Great Again, Again! Inc.

Important because it likely figured in Trump’s political calculus when he chose multi-millionaire Pulte in January to run the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), and illegal because the contribution violated federal law:  the true source of the money was hidden because it was not attributed to her.
