Orlando Buffalo Posted February 10 Posted February 10 I am going to kinda of argue out both sides of my mouth here- it is definitely constitutional, and I would have said that before the SC stated it but what is it accomplishing? The big warning is that SBF could happen without it, but he did the biggest fraud of my lifetime right in the spotlight and it allowed it.

You act like the dems actually cared about them and we’re keeping them alive or something. Are you suggesting people are better served without the CFPB's independent oversight of banks, credit unions, payday lenders, mortgage servicers, foreclosure relief services, debt collectors, and for-profit colleges? Who benefits when Corporate America face less accountability in their dealings with consumers?

It is amazing how much power Congress delegates that is under their required oversight. BTW all of the things you listed had oversight before the CFPB, so that is not an actual selling point.

You have been acquitting yourself in a very interesting way since arriving on the scene. The way you word it, it sounds like Corporate America benefits. How terrifying. Now let’s reword your question to address a similar issue: Who benefits when the US government faces less accountability in their dealings with American citizens?

Or we can be excitable about eggs, starving the people of the world, or whatever the outrage of the day is. Unprecedented? *Googles for 45 seconds* Barack Obama's approval from February 9-15, 2009 was 64%. George W Bush's approval from February 9-21, 2001 was between 57% and 62% What's "unprecedented"?

I will contact him/her/them and register your dissatisfaction. My apologies for posting this disinformation.

No one but I'm not paranoid or programmed like you to disrespect the three equal branches of government. While I support a smaller, more efficient government, I oppose having unqualified people who don't understand what they're doing tampering with our digital infrastructure. Having inexperienced people meddling with them is beyond dangerous and stupid. If accountability and transparency is so important, where is the MAGA outrage over Trump removing 17 independent inspectors general? Do you understand the crucial oversight role they're supposed to play? If accountability and transparency is so important, why would House Republicans block efforts to subpoena Elon Musk over DOGE's access to government data? Once again, you choose to believe those who refuse to testify under oath.

Inspectors General - I do understand the crucial role they are supposed to play as you phrased it. If what we’ve heard so far regarding outrageous expenditures in different agencies is even close to being true, were they actually performing their crucial role? I think we will probably find out before too long. Re: Musk subpoena - what purpose at this point would it serve to have him appear before congress? So that dems can play act for the cameras? We all just witnessed the confirmation hearings. It’s a fkng clown show. No point in giving them the chance to bloviate. There’s work to be done. 1

For someone so vocal on government accountability, why not have Musk testify under oath to the American people about all this fraud and ask the DOJ to pursue charges based on this alleged evidence? What exactly are you afraid of?

Need evidence of that? Watch Schumer, Waters, and the jackass from Connecticut for two minutes. Or look at your own posts here along with those of Tiberius. Your side is coming undone. Would be nothing but pinheaded congresspeople screeching all day. Nothing useful would come of it. 1

How can you not see the danger in allowing inexperienced individuals to tamper with our digital infrastructure while simply hoping nothing goes wrong? Your stance demonstrates a complete disregard for accountability.

When you see the changes being made, combined with the weird obsession with the Afrikaners getting special support, it’s hard not to see how much influence Elon has.

Follow the money...For most of us, the answer is not "me". It's becoming blatantly obvious that much of the nation is comprised of imbeciles incapable of reason. oh, and btw, the guy enacting this little jewel of policy is an author of project 2025. the project trump said he had never heard of. yea and yall lost that's why all the glorious crying and whining.

Kamala was running on a plan to give an everyone 25k for a house without a plan of how to pay for it. You pay for that with taxes. You know what happens if they actually come up with a plan to cut the waste? Lower taxes. Or perhaps they spend the cash over here on help for Americans. 1
