Today’s Wall Street Journal publishes a letter to the editor by OMB Director and Acting Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Director Mick Mulvaney. In the letter Mulvaney responds to the column by Senator Elizabeth Warren published in the Journal last week attacking his leadership of the CFPB. At NR, Ronald Rubin has another take on Warren’s column. Mulvaney’s letter seems to me a classic of the kind. I don’t think Mulvaney’s letter is subject to copyright and I am posting the whole thing below. Here it is:
I write to correct misrepresentations made by Sen. Elizabeth Warren in “Republicans Remain Silent as Mulvaney’s CFPB Ducks Oversight” (op-ed, March 29) regarding my leadership of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
She claimed that the planned restructuring of the Office of Fair Lending and Equal Opportunity ignores a congressional mandate that the office “shall have such powers and duties . . . including providing oversight and enforcement of Federal laws.” In fact, Sen.

Big Squaw Pocohauntus need to lay off the fire water.
Warren (like all Dems) lies and knows that the Dem faithful will believe her, no matter what. Happily, a good percentage of Americans are awakening to the lies/manipulation of so many in Politics. Let’s hope enough awaken before the midterms. We really need to keep hold of the House and the Senate. Even if they ARE currently run by RINOs.
Fauxahuntus is yet another LIEberal, crazed, noxious, venomous harridan we are all getting who tirelessly and endlessly rants and raves against us “normals!”
SHUTUP, FAUXAHUNTUS! WE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR BLATHERING!
Yes he is! And his response here is classic. And classy. Well done.
Thanks Cheerio.
Love his response, and I appreciate officials that don’t just whimper when these liberals attack them, but fire back at them.
