The Biden-era CFPB said that banks couldn't charge fintechs for access to customer account data. The Trump era CFPB says they can.

And now JPMorgan Chase is telling fintechs they're going to have to pay. A lot. New from me and Paige Smith.

Modern international law triumphs over ancient texts in regards to territorial proprietorship. It doesn’t matter if God itself claims land for your nation, the laws of man rule this Earth.

You might remember Townstone and its delightful radio show and podcast, as well as the Seventh Circuit ruling that said the statements they made about Black Chicago neighborhoods were fair lending violations.

Reminder, this case was brought in 2020. Remember who was president then?

More to come.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Do you feel terrified, confused, exhausted, overwhelmed, unable to focus or summon any energy to resist?
Turn off the media and mute social media pundits who are filling your every thought with what the oligarchy is doing. Breathe. Centre yourself. Focus on what you and the resistance are doing. #3E
