The #CFPB is super-efficient in its core mission: protecting American consumers from illegal charges and business practices, and has garnered a lot of refunds for many consumers. The ‘E’ in #DOGE stand for #Efficiency. So, #Elon, keep your mitts off it!
Musk's primary interest in raiding all government databases is to get a ginormous mailing list for his outside businesses. He will have access to a complete picture of Americans whom he can mine for products he intends to offer his products.
Even if he is stoped legally from raiding these databases, it will be too late because all the information will have been transferred to his private servers. And even longer after the Trump debacle is over, he will have used the same phantom algorithms he used to hand trump his victory, he will use it to hide all the information he stole from government servers
The one and only lesson my parents offered me that was 1) worthwhile and 2) imparted without physical violence was this: "Avoid Debt". And, oddly enough, they were right.
Sir Promised Pain: Sir Delivers Pain and More Pain
"Americans across the political spectrum to feel considerably more pessimistic about the economy than they did before President Trump took office. Consumer sentiment fell about 5 percent in the University of Michigan's preliminary February survey of consumers to its lowest reading since July 2024." The WSJ reporters continue, "Expectations of inflation in the year ahead jumped from 3.3 percent in January to 4.3 percent, the second month in a row of large increases and highest reading since November 2023…."
A thought on the State of the Union, since the season is almost upon us.
We on the left will, of course, be descending into squabbles over whether or not to attend. I would like to suggest that the Democratic Caucus should attend, but with a bit of that vicious discipline the Republicans have employed so successfully.
The Dems should announce that they will sit and listen respectfully to the President so long as he tells the truth. Whenever he lies, they will boo him. You know what a shitshow that thing will turn into, and you know how fast it will turn.
This will piss Chump off. Maybe enough for him to go off script and get all thuggish.
Afterward, all the Republican congresscritters will be asked about the Democrats' behavior, and they will go full dudgeon. It will be epic for them.
What they won't be doing is praising Chump's speech and reinforcing the lies, which is what happens if we stay home or go and stay silent.
The Dems should publicize that they will be very vocal in emphasizing each lie told by Orange Putz, but also with each lie one Dem will make a very obvious exit from the Chamber. My guess is that by mid-speech, there will be few, in any, Democrats in the Chamber. Could make for a very interesting story and visual.
Pretty sure our personal data slipped right through the greasy little fingers of the Shitler youth and has found its way to servers in Russia and China. Remember when the MAGAts and the media lost their fucking minds because Hillary had some emails on a private server? I'm willing to bet the farm that her servers didn't contain the personal information of millions of Americans.
Nice to see some parting courage on a few of these sinking ships, but it’s a somber reminder that all institutions devoted to fairness, justice, accountability, equality or decency are under assault by a man who knows about assault. This is a grotesque spectacle of wealthy, white narcissists.

Axe Body Spray? These guys probably buy a knock-off brand on the CVS "Incel Clearance Shelf."

Parting shot
Excellent work. A master class in sarcasm and irony that no doubt went right over the computer kids’ heads. And fuck UC Berkeley.
A thing of beauty this is!
All right, which Wonketeer wrote it?
Liz Warren did it

Splendid. The high road has gotten us nowhere.
Excellent idea. Fight fire with fire. Fuck decorum. It doesn't work on them.
Welp, the interwebs is doxing all of Elon's DOGEbags. What a shame.
Epic.
So...77 million Trump voters do not want
CONSUMER
FINANCIAL
PROTECTION
?
None of them got burned in the 2008 financial meltdown that gave rise to the incredibly effective CFPB? Lucky group of voters.
2008? Was anyone even alive then?
They have the attention span of a headless chicken
They. Are. Racist. Fucking. Morons.
Very good response from them. Malicious compliance is the order of the day.
Though we really have to expect that our personal data are in these greasy little shits' hands.

Absolutely! But I guess at this point all we can do is maybe freeze our credit and hope that’s enough.
Murc’s Law is Cruise Control for Cool (and Clicks) with the media and their Republican owners and fans!

I love the CFPB. It's probably one of the best things our government has managed to do in my entire lifetime.
The github link to Kliger's account now gets a 404 error message. Boy, that's a surprise.
ETA shoulda scrolled down
