Its not a “financial watchdog”, its Elizabeth Warren’s Star Chamber.

The CFPB should never have existed.

There were regulators working off of actual laws that had processes to follow. The CFPB made up everything they did, and had funding to push whatever they wanted—with ZERO oversight.

It is corrupt to its bones.

“That was bad enough. But under the leadership of Barack Obama appointee Richard Cordray, the bureau decided that being “above politics” also meant that it could be “above the law.”
|
Thus it was, for example, that the CFPB set out to regulate automobile dealerships, even though it was explicitly prohibited — in statute — from doing so.
|
And that it started engaging in “regulation by enforcement”: Filing lawsuits against financial service providers for past practices as a means of announcing that something that had been permissible would be illegal going forward.
|
And its participation in various manifestations of Operation Chokepoint, whereby banks were discouraged from providing services to entirely legal businesses — pawn shops and gun manufacturers, for example — because Democrats simply didn’t like them.”

Waiting for ANOTHER CORRUPT JUDGE TO STOP VOUGHT!!

Shouldn’t be long now. Lieawatha is probably sending smoke signals as we speak.

[Ann Archy]

She is on the WARPATH!

[Enterprise]

The law is what the left says it is. And they operate by Catch-22. We can do anything we want if you can’t stop us.

instructed to cease “all supervision and examination activity” and “all stakeholder engagement,”

You are redundant - DOGE has got it.
