President Donald Trump chalked up another win at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) last week when former deputy director Leandra English announced her resignation and dropped her lawsuit against the White House.
English “plans to resign next week,” the Associated Press reportedon Friday.
“English was the chief of staff for Richard Cordray, President Barack Obama’s director of the bureau. She was promoted to deputy director shortly before Cordray resigned in late November. Citing the law that created the bureau, English and Cordray both argued that she was now the acting director of the bureau,” the Associated Press noted in its report, adding:
President Trump, citing longstanding laws over presidential appointees, named his budget director, Mick Mulvaney, as acting director of the bureau. It created a standoff between the White House and the CFPB, and it was unclear for several days who was actually in charge of the bureau.
Congressional Democrats, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, and consumer groups backed English’s legal claim for control of the regulator while banking groups, and Republicans, pushed Mulvaney’s claim.
English quickly sued to block Mulvaney’s appointment, but federal judges repeatedly ruled that President Trump had the power to appoint who he wanted into federal agencies. After Mulvaney was clearly in control of the bureau, English was largely sidelined by the current administration.
“On Friday, she [also] said she would drop her lawsuit . . . now that Mr. Trump has formally nominated Kathy Kraninger to be the agency’s permanent director,” The New York Times reported.
English’s resignation and decision to drop her lawsuit is yet another in a long string of victories for President Trump at the CFPB, the controversial independent agency established under the constitutionally questionable authority of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act.
Will the winning never end?

You started off well Patrol and then went wishful Daffy on us...
Another example of precedents established by the Democrats: The Ginsburg Rule....
When President Bill Clinton nominated Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1993, former Vice President Joe Biden, then a Democratic senator, chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee with a Democrat Senate majority.
Mindful that Ginsburg could be perceived as out of the mainstream of American law – she had once argued for legalizing prostitution, against separate prisons for men and women and raised the possibility of a right to polygamy – Biden prescribed certain rules for questioning nominees.
Biden’s most significant rule, which has since come to be known as the “Ginsburg Rule,” stipulated that nominees are under no obligation to answer questions regarding their personal views or about any issue that might conceivably come before the court.
Naturally, Republican members of the Judiciary Committee wanted to know whether Ginsburg still held such radical views. But Ginsburg religiously adhered to Biden’s Rule, refusing to answer questions on important matters such as funding for school vouchers, the religion clause of the First Amendment and homosexual rights. The senators were stymied in their efforts to obtain even a hint of her position on these and similar public issues because she said that doing so might compromise her impartiality in cases likely to come before the court.
Near the close of the hearing, Ginsburg explained: “My own views and what I would do if I were sitting in the legislature are not relevant to the job for which you are considering me, which is the job of a judge.”

He's the biggest ass kisser to Putin this side of Moscow. If you open your eyes you'll see.
Worst case: T will agree to leave NATO, and Putin will agree not to release the videos.
Do we get to submit questions?
1. Is the President above the law?
2. Do you feel obligated by precedent?
