The article discusses internal tensions among Trump advisers regarding Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) aggressive tactics to restructure the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Key figures, like Russell Vought, worry that DOGE's rapid and uncontrolled actions could strengthen the CFPB instead of dismantling it. Vought, who has taken drastic steps to limit the CSPB's operations, faces skepticism about the effectiveness of DOGE's strategy. With the agency's operations disrupted and employees fired without clear direction, the future of the CFPB remains uncertain as leadership changes occur.
Trump aides express concern that Elon Musk's DOGE approach is hasty, risking legal challenges and potentially strengthening the CFPB, as tensions emerge within the organization.
Vought has quickly acted to curtail CFPB operations, freezing its litigation and imposing communication restrictions, raising further questions about DOGE’s management of the agency.
