20 State AGs have sued Russell Vought for trying to starve the CFPB of funding.
Since 2011, the CFPB has returned over $20B to consumers.
Without the Bureau, financial predators and scammers will have an easier time picking your pocket.

you have to imagine that this probably also happens when there doesn't happen to be a Herald reporter randomly sitting there to see it happen
"A Miami Herald reporter witnessed the agents forcefully removing Dayana — who is 4-feet, 11-inches tall and weighs 85 pounds — from her white Toyota Corolla. The footage shows Dayana yelling at the reporter to help her and that she was a United States citizen"

A win! A judge in Oregon ruled that the Trump administration may not withhold emergency preparedness funding from states that declined to submit updated population counts accounting for deportations, because population estimates are the responsibility of the U.S. Census Bureau; not the states.

A criminal PARTY. Republicans could stop the kidnapping, imprisonment, and torture of people any time they want with congressional orders. They could stop the consolidation of media empires to hide the truth. Instead they choose to allow it. We are the bad guys because of them.
It’s the year 2025 and Americans have to watch a bootlegged international version of a news program because it was censored here in our country to protect a criminal president.

The American people deserve to know the truth—did Tom Homan accept a bribe from undercover FBI agents or not?
Despite what the government claims, his personal interests are not more important than the American people.

The Trump-Vance admin claims it closed its investigation into border czar Tom Homan allegedly accepting a $50k bribe – yet it refuses to confirm the existence of records related to the investigation.
Our case proves the government is continuing to stonewall, and we will keep fighting for the truth.
