โ€œThe act allows the government to detain and remove immigrants with little to no due process. It was most famously used during World War II to help justify Japanese internment.โ€

Big fan of the CFPB but genuinely curious why we needed to create the CFPB as a separate agency rather than working within the Treasury or some other existing agency.

How does the U.S. federal workforce compare with those in other countries? President Trump's administration has fired more than 20,000 federal workers. How does the federal workforce compare with those of other countries?

In Oversight today, my colleagues stuck to their usual script: blaming immigrants for all crime & claiming Dem mayors are too soft. Well, I was curious to know if theyโ€™ve ever had an immigrant with a criminal record that they could recall. Tune in!

If you are as outraged as I am by how Putinโ€™s Poodle betrayed our allies and disgraced the Oval Office today, you can make a statement right now by donating to u24.gov.ua, the official Ukrainian government portal for donations to the war effort and humanitarian aid.

The SAVE Act threatens to disenfranchise millions with strict in-person requirements for voter registration. This will disproportionately impact service members and civilians abroad in exercising their right to vote.
Go to 5calls.org to find your reps and tell them to vote NO on this bill. #SAVEAct

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weaponsโ€”over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.โ€”should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism.

As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ

The CFPB has:

-Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud
-Cracked down on junk fees
-Fought against politically-motivated debanking
-Protected veterans from predatory lenders
-Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse

Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Cash App fined $255 million in back-to-back settlements Most of it is going to Cash Appโ€™s customers.

The CFPB just won $120 million for CashApp users who were victims of fraud and who CashApp basically ignored when they needed help. The CFPB is like the most powerful Karen you wish you knew when a company fucks you over. Ask yourself why rich people want it gone

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

If this platform is more welcoming to older people, we are all much richer for it! We often overlook age as an important DEI consideration.
