Workers are starting to protest. I can’t decide what I like better. This or the deep fake at HUD. Maybe it’s a tie!

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau makes sure you don't get scammed by digital payment companies and car lenders. Elon Musk’s role as CEO of X Money and Tesla makes DOGE’s takeover of the CFPB a clear conflict of interest. @schiff.senate.gov and I are pressing for answers.
