1. Anything that makes the 1% richer is going to happen.

After all, they paid for it on the installment plan for the last 40 years. Those pesky regulations have been a burden for far too long. Checks and balances, bad. Oversight, bad. Media coverage, how quaint
Orwell missed it by 40 years.

He's undoing all that Biden did including the capping of bank fees for overdrafts etc.

9. Another big lie is that overdraft won't be available

unless there are big fees:

Millions of hardworking Americans, including the one in five without access to credit, rely on overdraft services as a valuable financial lifeline, yet the Biden-Chopra CFPB’s overdraft rule threatens to cut off their access to this essential bank product.

Also, the Republicans say paying big fees makes you more disciplined:

The committee leaders cited the rule’s impact on access to important financial services and reiterated that lawful and contractually agreed upon payment incentives promote financial discipline and responsibility.

13. Keith Olbermann has a great idea. Hire Pete

To hold press conferences each S-Th morning to give these details to the media, and eventually to the public. He's a natural, and the public is so clueless about what is actually happening that it has to be told over and over.
