Democrats and the media—along with federal employee unions—have rallied around the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency that has been in the sights of the Department of Government Efficiency initiative for its censorship, waste, and hindering of businesses disfavored by the Left, among other issues.
CBS’ “60 Minutes” also aired a highly sympathetic piece about the agency on Sunday with an interview with ousted CFPB Director Rohit Chopra, the Joe Biden appointee whom President Donald Trump fired earlier this month.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., who as a Harvard law professor was the architect of the agency, denounced the Trump administration and DOGE chief Elon Musk.
