Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I trace how corporate power and political influence destroyed the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, silencing the only federal agency whose sole mission was protecting ordinary consumers. From real-world cases to court rulings and donor pressure, this is the story of what happens when the watchdog is taken off the beat. Check out my substack page where I tackle some of the episode topics in depth and write about other issues our country and the world are facing today. https://substack.com/@ktdpodcast
