🚨 Today: Mass firings just hit the CFPB. This is because Trump and Musk are trying to gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — the agency that protects regular people like you & me from being scammed by banks, credit card companies, and shady online platforms. 1/

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days. It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man. An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/ #MomSky

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

The CFPB has returned $21 billion to 205 million consumers who were scammed at the hands of predatory banks. You can root out waste, fraud, and abuse... or you can eliminate the CFPB. But you can't do both.

This is a room where we turn very modest salaries and budgets (and lots of coffee) into new knowledge, life-saving innovations, and technology that feeds business growth. It's literally the loom that spins hay into gold but these numpties are suddenly worried about the cost of hay.

The CFPB saves consumers (us regular Americans) around $5 billion a year from bank fees through their regulations on banks. It's the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — if Trump shuts them down, that $5,000,000,000 will be taken from people who need it and given to banks.
