The Government Accountability Office has opened an investigation into Federal Housing Finance Authority Director Bill Pulte, who has served as an attack dog against President Donald Trump’s enemies.

The probe by the congressional watchdog was requested by a group of Senate Democrats on Nov. 17.

“I can confirm that GAO has accepted this request following our standard process,” a GAO spokesperson told CNBC when asked about the investigation into Pulte on Thursday.

“The first thing GAO does as any work begins is to determine the full scope of what we will cover and the methodology to be used,” the spokesperson said. “This can take a few months, and until that is done, we cannot provide any estimates on a completion date.”
