yeah, what i have in my very news;
"Trump is targeting the Dodd-Frank Act, a set of laws introduced in 2010 in the wake of the financial crisis by Barack Obama."
&
"the CFPB is one of the entity that has worked best. It has provided essential protection to the weakest Americans."
=> fuck the poors, marechal trump 2024
I am all for consumer protection but the CFPB blatantly violates the laws of the land.
1 - Not accountable to Congress or Executive Branch
2 - Not funded by Congressional budget
If it was accountable and budgeted as required by law then I think it might have a place in the government.

Cfpb is terrible, helps millions of consumers gain back billions of dollars they been screwed out of by businesses and banks
What we need is a bureau that ensure consumers have no recourse against shady business practices, false advertising and businesses refusing to provide products and services that consumers have paid for
If only the CFPB wasn't violating laws that are already on the books. I am all for consumer protection - just not at the expense of the Constitution and other laws that precede it.
