did your blog tell that the cfpb had been weaponized against conservatives?


"Today, the House Financial Services Committee is holding an Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee hearing, led by Subcommittee Chairman Dan Meuser (PA-09), to examine the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) broad investigative authority and the harm its regulation by enfor ...[text shortened]... -class Americans.'

"Weaponization" of government agencies was completely unknown until the Trump Administration made it their entire raison d'etre.


"the harm its regulation by enforcement scheme has caused to working-class Americans."

A sheer Trumpublican fantasy. The purpose of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is to protect consumers. Nothing else. Jim Jordan and James Comer are liars of a completely Trumpian professional-level proportion.

Exactly. The "harm" is to fraudsters. Criminals. Technically, they are working class Americans, but that fact should not preclude investigating fraud.

Imagine an investigator saying we shouldn't investigate fraud anymore because what if a working class American loses his job? That's basically what Republicans are now arguing, and because the investigators disagree, they fire them.
