  1. "It’s a situation that has caught the eyes of regulators and politicians, sometimes resulting in unexpected political alliances. Today on Lever Time, Senior Podcast Producer #ArjunSingh sits down with several current and former regulators, including recently dismissed Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Chair #RohitChopra, to learn how the tech sector is rapidly changing society at the expense of the working class—and what the government can do to stop it."

  2. #Trump has fired the director of the #Consumer #Financial #Protection Bureau, #RohitChopra, in the latest #purge of a #Biden admin ofcl.

    Chopra was one of the more important #regulators from the previous admin. Chopra’s tenure saw the removal of #MedicalDebt from #CreditReports & limits on #overdrafts #penalties, all based on the premise that the financial system could be fairer & more competitive in ways that helped #consumers.

  3. Good #Sunday reading #MustShare
    May Harris & the #progressive win🙏

    "The turn to pocketbook #progressivism by both Biden & #Harris has 1 great thinker & political strategist in common, & tt's Sen #ElizabethWarren. Early in Biden’s admin, Warren was a source of both ideas & people. Some of Biden’s best & most effective appointees were part of Warren-world. They incl #RohitChopra, who heads #CFPB, which was Warren’s idea, & #FTC Chair #LinaKhan, who resurrected #antitrust."

  4. The most consistent bright spot in the dark swirl of US politics is the competence of the Biden Administration's progressive enforcers: people like #RohitChopra, #JonathanKanter and #LinaKhan, who keep demonstrating just how far a good administrator can go. Anyone can have a vision, but knowing how to *execute* is the difference between hot air and real change:

    Biden's ceding of antitrust policy to the left of the party, combined with disaffected GOP senators viewing Khan as their enemy's enemy, led to Khan's historic appointment as FTC Chair. In that position, she was joined by a slate of Biden trustbusters, including #JonathanKanter at the DOJ Antitrust Division, #TimWu at the #WhiteHouse, and other important, skilled and principled fighters like #AlvaroBedoya (FTC), #RebeccaSlaughter (FTC), #RohitChopra (#CFPB), and many others.

    The Biden administration is a weirdly perfect illustration of this "independence." The Biden admin is a kind of referee, doling out policies and appointemnts to its competing wings, without any coherence or consistency.

    That's how you get *incredible* appointments like #LinaKhan at the #FTC and #JonathanKanter at #DoJ #AntitrustDivision and #RohitChopra at the #CFPB.
