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 Trump’s 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. Pulte’s 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. Pulte’s 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.

There is precedent for a request like Warren’s: In 2021, her letter noted, the banking committee’s then-ranking member, former Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), wrote to then-Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. Toomey requested similar records for two Biden nominees over controversial or “disparaging” tweets they’d deleted — like one that referred to then-Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as “Senator Jellyfish.” It’s not clear whether Dorsey responded.

Pulte, who has 3 million followers on X, is known for giving away money on the social media platform.

Trump himself took notice of the giveaways: In 2019, during Trump’s first term, Pulte tweeted at the president: “If @realDonaldTrump retweets this, I will give $30,000 to a Veteran on Twitter.” (Like most of his posts, Pulte’s tweet soliciting Trump’s attention has been deleted.)

Trump responded, “Thank you Bill.” A Pulte press release indicated the housing investor “[made] good on his promise” a few hours later. The pair went through a similar back-and-forth a few days later over Pulte’s pledge to give “Two Beautiful Cars to Two Beautiful Veterans on Twitter” if Trump retweeted him.

The FHFA oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ― which stand behind “roughly half of the U.S. residential mortgage market,” Politico noted ― as well as 11 government-sponsored Federal Home Loan Banks.

Since 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have been closely supervised by the federal government as part of a conservatorship. An outgrowth of the financial crisis, the conservatorship was intended to stabilize the housing market and prevent another crash. The first Trump administration sought to reprivatize the companies, however, and is seeking to do so again.

In a statement congratulating Pulte on his nomination, Bob Broeksmit, the CEO of the Mortgage Bankers Association, said the industry group stood ready to ensure the “transition to a post-conservatorship era” for the firms. And Pulte is seen as likely to support that push. The activist group No Corporate Cabinet referred to Pulte as the “extremely online scion of a real estate empire.”

Warren separately wrote to Pulte on Monday, asking in a lengthy letter for his view of ending the conservatorship of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and pressing him on potential conflicts of interest, given that his investments are “closely tied to the housing system and may directly relate to business that will come before FHFA.”

On a financial disclosure form, Pulte detailed holdings of over $190 million, HousingWire reported. On top of significant holdings in the housing industry, he’s also an investor in X, to the tune of somewhere between $1 million and $5 million. That makes him not only another Trump nominee with a large public following, but also yet another ultra-rich Trump pick.

Among his many deleted tweets is at least one relevant to HuffPost: Last year, the Pulte family purchased an activist stake in BuzzFeed, HuffPost’s parent company.

“In our opinion, the current BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti is driving the company into the ground, and when Vivek Ramaswamy gave him a life boat to save his sinking ship, Peretti told him thanks anyway,” Pulte wrote on X, Bloomberg reported. The statement is no longer accessible.
