"Why, just today, the CFPB Sen. Warren started took $800 million from Bank of America and gave it to cheated consumers, to settle claims against said bank. "

...thanks Obama!!!

You may not know this, but Obama is responsible for re-regulating Wall Street.

There is no question that Dodd-Frank was a strong bill—the strongest in three generations. I didn’t have a chance to vote for it because I wasn’t yet in the Senate, but if I could have, I would have voted for it twice.

I couldn't be more pleased that Rich Cordray will finally get the vote that he deserves. This is a historic day for working families!
