The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is the most partisan agency in the federal government in terms of donations to candidates, according to campaign finance data.
Employees at the CFPB, which was created by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, contributed nearly $50,000 during the 2016 campaign with all of that money going to aid Hillary Clinton or her rival, the insurgent socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. Agency employees made more than 300 donations during the campaign. Not one went to a Republican candidate.
Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wisc., a frequent critic of the agency, said that it is no surprise that the agency would contribute to the Democratic campaign.

Close this partisan pit of LIB vipers.
Close that monstrosity down on day 1. Cancel the construction project for the building.

I’m guessing they’re corrupt...
Strangle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in its crib!
It’s an employment agency for otherwise unemployable `rats.
