The US Consumer Financial Bureau’s enforcement official has allegedly accused the Trump administration of alleging that he was accused of destroying the agency’s mission in a farewell email.
The agency’s acting director, Cara Patterson, said in an email viewed by Reuters on Tuesday that the Trump administration’s restoration of CFPB – which includes an attempt to reduce its manpower by 90 % – has made it almost impossible to fulfill its mission to ensure financial products.
Patterson’s email was read, “I served as every director and acting director in the history of the bureau, and before that I have never seen the ability to carry out my basic mission under the attack.”
“It has been catastrophic that the function of the implementation of the bureau is eliminated through the staff thinking, irreparable dismissal of cases, and the elimination of negotiating settlements, which gives the opportunity to stop wrong acts.”
Eliminating CFPB can affect crypto
CFPB was formed in the context of the 2008 financial crisis to manage financial companies, such as mini -transfer firms, to prevent them in abuse and predatory ways.
It also raises complaints about the US crypto exchange and can lead to less surveillance and more uncertainty in a weak CFPB Crypto industry, where frauds and scams continue.
Eliminating CFPB is a reflection of the wider model of regulatory unexpected capacity under President Donald Trump-because of his backback and ahead tariff policies, which has left many of the US-based crypto mining companies in the dark, regardless of their planning to work.
Patterson said Trump “has no intention of enforcing the law in any meaningful way.”

Russell vote, director of Trump’s Office of Management and Budget, also left major cases against Walmart and Capital One-the move is an indication of a corporate accountability withdrawal and weakening consumer reservations.
The legal status of Trump’s move is still in balance
A Federal Appeal Court in Washington DC is examining whether the Trump administration can abolish the court’s order, which limits the CFPB’s ability to oust most of its staff.
In mid -April, the CFPB staff between 1,400 and 1,500 were issued suspension notices of the Trump government’s efforts to reduce governments. However, Judge Amy Burman Jackson intervened, temporarily stopped.
