A secretive data collection program run by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau allows private contractors access to millions of Americans’ personal financial information, according to a government accountability group.

The information may also be shared with other federal agencies.

Documents obtained by Washington-based Judicial Watch through the Freedom of Information Act illustrate the cost and scope of the program, which business groups and some Republican lawmakers have assailed as invasive and potentially illegal.

I think we can Jim. We might have to get past those treasonous bastards called the Congress first, though.

Why isn’t this headlines around the world? Why is it only Larry Klayman and Judicial Watch reporting on it?

Does that mean that the information contained in the article is not true—or that other mainstream media are either afraid to expose it-

I’m trying to figure out whether to get all exercised over this—or to ignore it.

Some headlines are so shocking to me, they leave me speechless. So I searched, it wasn’t posted, so now everyone else can be shocked too.

Only if you can prove beyond all shadow of a doubt he's a Republican or a Tea partier.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Orwell couldn’t have named them better!

Like the Ministry of Love tortured people, the Ministry of Plenty lied about the economy and their MSM (Ministry of Truth) lied about everything:
(AP) “Rogue underlings at the CFPB ... the WH press secretary, the president learned of this just recently, unacceptable, inappropriate,” blah blah blah.

Impeachment!
