mr. president. mr. president, in recent weeks several judges have issued orders blocking unlawful actions taken by the trump administration. in response, the administration's officials and allies have made worrisome statements criticizing federal judges and the process of judicial review. elon musk, an unelected bureaucrat who is assisting this administration, has repeatedly called for the impeachment of federal judges and questioned the lifetime appointment of federal judges that is enshrined in article 3 of the constitution. president trump's choice of deputy director of the fbi, dan bongino, suggested on a podcast that the president set up a fake courtroom in the white house where, quote, he can just start making judicial decisions. mr. bongino added, and i quote, if the judge is the executive, why can't the executive be the judge? ask your stupid liberal friends that, mr. bongino is quoted as saying. as a reminder, mr. bongino is second in command at the fbi, the most powerful investigative agency in

mr. president. i fueled the floor. -- i yield the floor. . [cheering] >> thank you, madam chair and thank you to all of you joining us today. we want to make sure it's very clear. you, mr. president. tragically and totally unnecessariliy what we are seeing in realtime is an assault on the veterans of america. it's an assault that is part of a campaign by elon musk, who's been empowered by president trump, supposedly to eliminate waste in our federal government. instead of eliminating waste, elon musk is laying waste to the department of veterans affairs, and it is unfolding in real time with real-life impacts on our veterans. not only is he firing veterans at the v.a., many of the 2400 already terminated are veterans, one-third of them, but across agencies in the united states government, where 30,000 members of the federal workforce have been indiscriminately terminated. 30% of them are veterans as well, almost 50% of everybody in the department of defense who has been fired, they're veterans. and t

mr. president. mr. president, tonight president trump will tat podium and he will have a joint address to congress and clearly to the nation. just heard the minority leader of the senate come to the floor and talk about president trump's promises. let me talk about those promises, properly maces made -- promises made, promises kept by president trump. he's only been in the office now for seven weeks and he is a very -- he has a very strong record of accomplishment in those seven weeks. what did he promise he would do? he said he would cut wasteful washington spending. that's a promise he's kept. what we are seeing is the most comprehensive audit of federal spending of money in history. this administration already in just these short weeks has identified $55 billion of savings. president trump promised to secure the border. well, he's kept that promise as well. he immediately began deporting criminal illegal immigrants. they're here in the country illegally and they were criminals, heinous crimes. we're t

mr. president -- mr. president, with respect, i think it's disrespectful to try to litigate this in front of the u.s. media. you're forcing con scripts to the front line because you have man power problems you should be thanking the president for trying to brick into this conflict -- >> you say what problems we have? vice president vance: i've watched and seen the stories. and i know what happens is you bring people -- you bring them on a propaganda tour, mr. president -- do you disagree that you have problems bringing people into your military? and do you think it's respectful to come to the oval office of the united states of america and attack the administration that's trying to prevent the destruction of you country? >> a lot of questions. let's talk from the beginning. just a war, during the war, everybody has problems. even you. but you have nice ocean and don't feel now. but you will feel it in the future. god bless -- pres. trump: you don't know. that you don't know that. don't tell us what we're g

mr. president, i would yield the floor. mr. hickenlooper: mr. president.he presiding officer: the senator from colorado. mr. hickenlooper: mr. president, the consumer financial protection bureau is, at its core, a law enforcement agency. congress established the cfpb 15 years ago to protect americans from fraud, from getting ripped off by banks and credit card companies, financial institutions, but today's republican-led resolution weakens the cfpb's ability to protect consumers. it's part of a broader effort by the administration to shut down consumer protections entirely. now, let's take a minute to go back in time to the time before the cfpb existed, right before the 2008 financial meltdown. back then, abusive fees and misleading disclosures meant that coloradans paid more for mortgages, more for credit cards, more for student loans. fly-by-night lenders made massive profits by targeting vulnerable families with excessively high-cost loans, turning credit from a tool for opportunity into a tool for scams. financial scammers could all too easily slip thr
