"Vought declined my request for an interview," pretty much says it all. The New Yorker has published a thorough analysis of how he and Trump are conspiring to throw working Americans' and their wallets to the corporate wolves of Wall Street and Silicon Valley.
As Trump's budget chief, Russ Vought is happy to deny working people fair financial services, but apparently he STILL needs time to think about whether taxpayers can afford Kristi Noem's luxury jet.

More ways Trump and Vought are hurting regular people by sidlining the CFPB. They have no plans for affordability, only plans for profits. www.propublica.org/article/cred...
It's almost as if the President could have accomplished something if he hadn't hired Rusty Vought... #stopvought #savecfpb
The question of the day posed by @repmaxinewaters.bsky.social while Republicans ask their industry friends how to help banks instead of working Americans. #stopvought #savecfpb
A CFPB Union member looks on while @consumerfed.bsky.social's Adam Rust patiently explains to Republicans that they can't fight fraud while Trump & Vought destroy the CFPB. #stopvought #savecfpb
A lot more people need to start asking a lot more questions about Rusty Vought's spending habits. He flouts the constitution and robs people of the help Congress tried to send them every day he hides behind his massive imperial gaurd. #stop vought
Support our fund for illegally fired workers by buying some CFPP Union NTEU 335 merch!
@ourfinancialsecurity.org Associate Director Tom Feltner reminds everyone what the CFPB workers can do for Americans when they are allowed to work. #savecfpb #stopvought
"We reversed Vought’s illegal firings of hundreds of workers. We turned the consumer complaints hotline back on ... and just last month, we forced Vought to partially fund the bureau’s 2026 operations..." #stopvought #savecfpb

Because of this, every veteran and working American has to look over their shoulder for scammers and cheats. This will be true as long as Trump leaves Vought in charge of the CFPB and Congress lets cuts to its funding stand. #stopvought #savecfpb

If everything had gone according to plan, Russ Vought would have fired every CFPB worker within his first week. Fortunately for the rule of law and every American cheated by the financial sector, very little went according to plan because of union power. ✊️
As we begin year two in our ongoing campaign to stop the Trump administration from illegally dismantling the CFPB, it's worth reflecting on all that we've accomplished so far. Our latest article in @labornotes.bsky.social details how we survived DOGE and why we must continue the fight.
"Continued advocacy and vigilance is surely needed, but after what we all witnessed at USAID, few could have predicted that the CFPB would make it this far. I, for one, thank my fellow union members for that. Solidarity, and consumer protection, forever."
"The rumors of the bureau’s demise are premature. But to stop Vought from shutting it down for good, Americans must demand Congress restore the bureau’s funding and impeach Vought."
Former CFPBer and @crlonline.bsky.social consumer advocate Graciela Aponte-Diaz explains what you can do to make sure working Americans' wallets are safe from fraud and scammy corporations. #stopvought #savecfpb
"Federal workers and unions have proven to be a bulwark defending the rule of law and vital public services during President Trump’s second term. Our union at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a case in point."
Retired CFPB Union Member Alexis Goldstein explains why she stood up to DOGE (and was fired for it). #stopvought #savecfpb
