The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau exists to protect Americans from predatory lenders, junk fees, and fraud.

Shutting it down does nothing more than give sketchy companies a free pass to prey on the public.

We’re not going to let that happen.

Three updates:
1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

A federal judge, Amir H. Ali, ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze foreign aid spending halted in Trump’s first week, ruling that the freeze was based on dubious logic and likely causing irreparable harm to aid groups facing financial shortfalls and potential shutdowns.

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

The Trump administration plans to reduce the USAID workforce from over 10,000 to around 290 positions. Meanwhile, Elon Musk’s staffers are now at FEMA, accessing information on its grant programs.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.
