Trump and Musk are grabbing power to dismantle any institution and punish any person who stands in the way of their plan to make the richest even richer.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are now leading the charge to dismantle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) in a power play to enrich themselves and their billionaire cronies.

The CFPB is your shield against financial predators — taking on huge corporations, exposing corruption, and fighting for your hard-earned money. While Trump's inner circle schemes to rig the system, the CFPB is holding them accountable, shutting down scams, and making sure YOUR wallet isn't their next target. Since its launch, the CFPB has delivered $20 billion in relief for consumers, including reducing loan balances and erasing debt. Now, its future is in peril.

This is another shameless raid on our wallets, and it's one of the many ways they're bringing Project 2025 to life. Trump and Musk are grabbing power to dismantle any institution and punish any person who stands in the way of their plan to make the richest even richer. The New York Times reports Musk has been targeting many of the federal agencies and officials who have been engaged in investigations of Musk's own multiple companies.

It's blatant corruption and an abuse of power.

Trump is going to try to install a loyalist crony to head the CFPB, and I'll fight him each step of the way. We must ensure the CFPB can continue to fight for everyday Americans, not greedy corporations and billionaires.

Onward!
