Washington DC – Previous targets of the Biden administration’s “law” say he and President Donald Trump are already making major changes to the federal bureaucracy.
In a speech on Capitol Hill on Friday for the conservative group’s American moment, Jeff Clark, deputy manager of the White House Information and Regulation Authority (OIRA), outlined how the government considers Americans more responsible for the Americans. The former Department of Justice (DOJ) official is tasked with cutting back on the very system that branded him as a criminal after President Joe Biden took office in 2021.

“It was… purely based on statistics and the fact that CFPB didn’t like speeches from the owners of that company, which has AM radio programs,” Clark said.
The CFPB, like other agencies, was “really crying and chasing Americans on many levels,” Clark said, until President Trump returned.
