Mick Mulvaney

Siding with Trump, judge rules Mick Mulvaney to remain interim head of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. A federal judge on Tuesday refused to block the appointment of Mick Mulvaney as interim director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, siding with the Trump administration in the legal fight over the leadership of the consumer watchdog agency. "Denying the president's authority to appoint Mr. Mulvaney raises significant constitutional questions," U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly said. The unusual battle for control of the bureau started on Friday. The agency's former director, Richard Cordray, appointed Leandra English as deputy director before he departed and contended that she would be the acting director until the Senate approved a new one. President Trump, however, countered the move by naming Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget and a vocal critic of the consumer bureau, to serve as the watchdog's interim director.
