Well of course. Data brokers pay some bribes and their problems go away

Not surprising. Just like his first term. Selling out the country. MAGA faithful never even hears about it. Too glued to Fox News and right wing radio.
Well looks like corruption does innfact print
Money valued more than the rights of American citizens. News at 11.
Why the Fuck haven’t Americans borne arms against the profiteering tyrants who are currently destroying their country?
If you think the American public has a lot of guns, you should see what the American government is packing...
You have a very valid point. And the guns that they purchase wholesale are of much better quality than the retail crap available to civilians,
They're too busy sucking his zombie dick.
It’s almost as if their “Right to Bear Arms” was just an excuse for Firearms Manufacturers to sell more units.
It's a showing excuse to do the same, ignore the rule(s), call that the whole set-up the responsibility of the whatever-word-isn't-the-people they're trying to take the choices from. They'll have it done as they surrender such rights for the ostensably any such whatever but what you actually want.
Guaren-fucking-tee-it. Banks aren't criminals. They're the one that invented the principle of such a word. That and the trick of misleading, deluding, tricking, etc. like the fucking CIA.
because I'm not a cishet white guy and dont own a gun and if I try to buy a gun I'll definitely be put on a watchlist.
The decision by CFPB to cancel the rule comes days after the Financial Technology Association, an industry lobby group representing non-bank fintech companies, wrote to Vought in his capacity as the White House’s budget director. The lobby group asked the administration to withdraw the CFPB’s rule, claiming it would be “harmful to financial institutions’ efforts to detect and prevent fraud.”
Sure. The only way to detect and prevent fraud is to make it easy for the fraud to happen in the first place.
This is why every other american thinks I'm paranoid when I use only FOSS software and a VPN. "Well you can't prevent everything and some of then have data on you already" SHUT UP THIS IS YOUR FAULT, YOU VOTED FOR THIS.
