Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) wants to know what happened to 25,000 tweets that a key Donald Trump nominee deleted soon after the 2024 election, and she on Wednesday wrote a letter to X CEO Linda Yaccarino requesting those records.
Bill Pulte, an investor whose grandfather founded PulteGroup and made it a housing construction empire, is President Trumps nominee to serve as director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which regulates trillions of dollars in the housing finance system. The self-proclaimed inventor of Twitter philanthropy also deleted about 25,000 tweets a few days after the 2024 presidential election.
My staff discovered that virtually all of Mr. Pultes tweets are missing and appear to have been deleted, Warren, the ranking member of the Senate banking committee, wrote to Yaccarino, according to a copy of the letter shared with HuffPost. Mr. Pultes account appears to have been purged of virtually all of his social media activity on your platform.
Warren told Yaccarino that she was writing to seek your assistance in gathering previously public information about Mr. Pulte that he appears to have deleted and is now hidden from the public. Pulte is scheduled to appear before the banking committee for a confirmation hearing Thursday morning.
