Democrats, especially Elizabeth Warren, fought to stop the confirmation of Russ Vought. Granted, they fought every confirmation for the most part but Vought was special.

Pursuant to the Consumer Financial Protection Act, I have notified the Federal Reserve that CFPB will not be taking its next draw of unappropriated funding because it is not "reasonably necessary" to carry out its duties. The Bureau's current balance of $711.6 million is in fact…
