In a series of tweets Saturday night, Warren defended CFPB's work, saying that the agency had forced financial institutions to return ill-gotten money to those they wronged and accusing Trump of taking up for powerful banks.

Someone needs to file a state suit [federal he can "trump" his way out but not state] for libel, defamation, slander and LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE so the (p)Resident-in-chief can trade that funky red tie for an orange jump suit that matches his skin color and like matter/antimatter maybe he will disappear.
The Supreme President is the "fake news" of the day.
