The CFPB is Now Investigating the CFPB

The new CFPB, one in which the office is closed and its workers can’t work, has now refocused its attention to investigating itself. A new tip line has been set up for people being pursued by CFPB enforcement or supervision staff to report them as being in violation of a stand down order. That’s because Acting Director Russell Vought has ordered its employees not to work while an audit conducted by the Department of Government Efficiency takes place. This tip line is designed to root out employees ignoring the order.

Vought confirmed the tip line on Thursday.
