Summary
Trump’s team is considering abolishing key banking regulators, including the FDIC and OCC, with plans to consolidate their functions under the Treasury Department.
Critics warn this could undermine public trust in banking, weaken deposit insurance protections, and risk another financial crisis.
The FDIC, established during the Great Depression, played a crucial role in managing the 2023 banking crisis.
Trump allies, backed by financial industry donors, are also targeting other consumer protections, reflecting sweeping deregulatory ambitions tied to Project 2025’s proposals.
Experts fear these moves could destabilize the economy.
Where do the millionaires on Trump’s cabinet store their money? Because I know those greedy assholes dont want to loose their own bucks.
