Slate:

And now, the New Republicreports, he’s named a national finance chairman who made a ton of money running a bank that, per TNR, repeatedly committed fraud in the course offoreclosing on struggling homeowners during the housing crisis. That individual is Steve Mnuchin, former chairman and primary owner of OneWest Bank. Here’s a fact about that institution’s business practices:

Johnson-Seck admitted to not reading the documents before signing them, to not knowing how the records were generated, and to not signing in the presence of a notary, all of which made the affidavits she signed false evidence in court.
