Why DOGE is killing the agency that keeps banks from ripping you off
- The director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), Rohit Chopra, was fired by President Donald Trump, leading to attempts by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to dismantle the agency.
- The CFPB was created after the 2008 financial crisis to protect consumers from predatory lending practices and financial fraud. The agency has been popular for its efforts to safeguard consumers and limit credit card fees.
- The decision to fire Chopra and the attempt to shut down the CFPB raise questions about the power of Trump and Musk to take such actions. There are concerns regarding the accountability and a clear plan for the government's policies.

Are Stablecoins a Threat or an Opportunity for Banks?
- Stablecoins, such as cryptocurrencies pegged to fiat currencies, like the U.S. dollar, have the potential to disrupt the banking industry and drive innovation.
