Vought and Project 2025 envision massive White House power grab
Prior to joining the Trump administration, Vought founded the Center for Renewing America, one of more that 100 conservative organizations on the advisory board of Project 2025. He also wrote the chapter in Project 2025’s policy book, Mandate for Leadership, on the Executive Office of the President of the United States, calling “to bend or break the bureaucracy to the presidential will.”
Vought laid bare Project 2025’s broad ambitions in a secretly recorded video last year, saying that he and his collaborators had prepared “about 350 different documents that are regulations and things of that nature that are — we’re planning for the next administration.”
The Trump administration has already begun following through on Project 2025’s goals, and dismantling the CFPB is no different. Mandate for Leadership refers to the bureau as a “highly politicized, damaging, and utterly unaccountable federal agency” that is “unconstitutional,” writing that the “next conservative President should order the immediate dissolution of the agency—pull down its prior rules, regulations and guidance, return its staff to their prior agencies and its building to the General Services Administration.”

This only eliminates the legal pathways to settling disputes. I’ve had the opportunity to deal with a debt collection agency once and if it wasn’t for the CFPB rules and processes, I guarantee 25 year old me would have made a visit to Rausch Millikens HQ. Spoiler alert, the debt wasn’t valid. They had an unsigned contract that was illegally renewed by some scumbag after cancellation, and because they couldn’t validate it they had to drop it or the CFPB would have got involved in their fraud.
These people wield incredible power over your financial future, and with nothing but a lie they can separate you from lenders, increase interest and insurance costs, and hurt your career through the magic of credit reporting agencies. They are and have always been destroying American lives, and if there’s no process to defend yourself, well, turnabout is fair play.
Ridding the country of the rule of law just forces the country to be lawless. They think Luigi was bad, wait until people start turning violent against every bad actor that abuses their power to grievously hurt others. It makes me happy to think about it. I’d be happier with a peaceful high trust society, but that ship is sailing.
Vought being the name is just too good.
The Boys showrunners are gonna have a field day.
