The CFPB has returned over $21 billion to Americans who were cheated by big banks and giant corporations.

But Trump has tried to destroy the CFPB, choosing big corporations over scammed Americans.

The case is in the courts now, and Democrats are united behind the CFPB.

I'm a cook in the Antifa Cafeteria.
Today's lunch menu:
Pizza (from Italian "Immigrants")
Greek salad (greeks tend to be socialists)
Fruits and cakes ("fruits? cakes?" Get it?).
We serve everyone.
We pay suppliers well.
Our suppliers treat the land and animals well.
Pizza, anyone?

The Trump Admin abruptly ended federal support for a highly effective program that prevents homelessness among disabled people, including veterans. This will mean more people living on the streets, unable to access housing, health care & other supports.

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

It’s day four of MAGA’s outrageous government shutdown. Now, Speaker Johnson gave House Republicans another paid week away from work.

I’m going live on Instagram at 7 PM ET with my friend and Ranking Democrat on the Rules Committee @repmcgovern.bsky.social to talk about this lawlessness.
