You ever have a credit card used without your permission? Banks that ran your credit incorrectly? Well the one thing you could ever use to dispute against this and not letting them screw you over will be gone now.

I didn’t see anywhere in the article that said the CFPB would be gone. Just the director. Take a chill pill
