CFPB Forced Predatory Lenders To RETURN $12 BILLION To The People They Screwed. No Wonder GOP Hates

...No wonder Trump and the GOP hate it so much.

Most people don't even know what it is, or that it even exists. Which is why WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS FIGHT BETWEEN LEANDRA ENGLISH AND MICK MULVANEY IN THE HEADLINES FOR WEEKS!!!! It will throw a spotlight on the CFPB, what it does, what it HAS done for consumers, and WHY the Republicans are trying to destroy it.

Please do everything you can to talk about this as often as you can, wherever you can!

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is just that...a government agency that (finally) PROTECTS CONSUMERS from CROOKED BUSINESSES. The types of predatory lenders that crashed the economy in 2008, and would do so again and again if they could make a buck from it.

Which is exactly why the plutocrats have tasked their GOP puppets to destroy it. They've been trying to destroy it from DAY ONE, when they blocked Elizabeth Warren from being its first head. Warren got her revenge by turning around and being elected to the Senate instead.

IF YOU LOVE ELIZABETH WARREN...YOU'LL GO TO THE MAT ON THIS ONE. IT'S HER BABY.



Good story here from BBC "Beware of Small Government Conservatives Bearing Donuts..."
