Mick Mulvaney

It is still a long shot that a rival of Mick Mulvaney's will be able to reclaim the agency's top job, but judges have raised questions over whether Mulvaney can keep the position.

Meet the new housing finance reform plan, same as the old ones. While that gives it legs, it also presents big challenges.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's structure is an infringement on the authority of the executive branch, a New York federal judge said Thursday.

The plan would end the GSE conservatorships and create an explicit federal guarantee, but it's unclear if even other parts of the Trump administration support it.

The acting agency chief defended the “zero tolerance” policy while praising the permanent CFPB nominee suspected of having been involved in implementing it.

Kathy Kraninger, a top official at OMB and nominee to head the CFPB, likely had a role in setting President Trump's "zero-tolerance" immigration policy, according to former OMB officials.

The selection of an obscure OMB official as CFPB director raises more questions than it answers about the future of the agency.

Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown sought details on whether an OMB official was involved in the policy of separating children from their parents.

The Democratic leader in the House raised questions about Kathy Kraninger's "qualifications to lead such an important agency."

President Trump has yet to formally name Kathy Kraninger as his choice to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, but her nomination is already in trouble. That may be just fine with the White House.
