BREAKING: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is firing 1,500 workers, and will soon have only about 200 remaining. That means the CFPB will be largely unable to carry out its mission of overseeing financial institutions and regulating companies that scam consumers.

This is not, like, the primary impact, but it's worth noting that the vast majority of other public polling you see out there is relying on Census demographic data to weight their surveys to be representative of the American public (or electorate).

🚨NEW: Senator Chris Van Hollen says he was just told by El Salvador’s Vice President that Garcia is still imprisoned because “the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT.”💥 This is despite him not being a MS-13 gang member nor being charged with a crime.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

NPR’s Steven Inskeep “If I understand this correctly, the US president has launched a trade war against the world, believes he can force the EU and China to meet his terms, is determined to annex Canada and Greenland, but powerless before El Salvador. Is that it?” open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

You know who boosted US manufacturing? Joe Biden, with his clean energy push. Worth remembering when the UK media coordinate their attacks on Net Zero.

I don't understand why there is more animosity to Target than to Walmart. Target treats its employees better. Liberals can be as cultish as conservatives.
