According to Odaily, employees of the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) staged a protest outside their Washington headquarters. The demonstration was in response to actions by the Government Efficiency Department (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, which allegedly interfered with the CFPB's operations. The protest was sparked by accusations that the DOGE team illegally accessed sensitive CFPB data and attempted to undermine the agency's regulatory functions through technological means.
