According to the CFPB, the new rule closes a loophole that has exempted overdraft loans from consumer protections required by 1968's Truth and Lending Act.

According to the CFPB, the new rule closes a loophole that has exempted overdraft loans from consumer protections required by 1968's Truth and Lending Act.

CFPB data shows that U.S. consumers have paid an estimated $280 billion in bank overdraft fees since 2000.

Over that same period of time, major banks' annual revenue from overdraft fees has soared.

For too long, some banks have charged exorbitant overdraft fees— sometimes $30 or more—that often hit the most vulnerable Americans the hardest, all while banks pad their bottom lines, Joe Biden, President of the United States, via CNBC.

Banks call it a service — I call it exploitation, Joe Biden, President of the United States, via CNBC.

The CFPB said that the new regulations only affect banks with over $10 billion in assets, impacting about 175 institutions across the country.

The new rules, including several potential benchmark rates ranging from $3 to $14 per transaction, are reportedly expected to be completed this year and go into effect by October 2025.

CNBC reports that the new rules would provide major banks two options, including offering overdraft coverage as a courtesy service, as opposed to a revenue-generating line of credit.

Under the second option, banks could offer overdraft loans for profit as long as they treat the funds as credit line loans, which would subject them to Truth in Lending Act regulations

Musk Vs Trump: What Next For Trump’s Doge After Elon Musk Quits Trump Team? DOGE in Trouble?

Elon Musk's departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) marks a significant shift in the Trump administration's cost-cutting agenda. Musk, who served as a special government employee, stepped down after reaching the 130-day service limit. His exit follows criticism of the administration's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which Musk argued would increase the federal deficit, countering DOGE's objectives. During his tenure, Musk aimed to reduce federal spending by $2 trillion but managed to cut approximately $150 billion. His efforts included auditing government credit cards, canceling leases on underutilized federal buildings, and restructuring agencies like USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. #ElonMusk #Trump #TrumpDOGE #TrumpVsMusk #MuskResignation #MuskTrumpFallout #ElonMuskNews #TrumpAdministration #MuskQuits #MuskGovernmentExit #WhiteHouseLive #MuskPoliticalViews #TrumpNews #USPolitics #ElonMuskControversy #MuskSteppingDown #TrumpWhiteHouse #MuskPoliticalDecision #ElonMuskStatement #TrumpMuskDrama #TrumpAdministrationChanges ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.346~GR.122~

ā€œNo Deal? Too Badā€ — Trump Threatens Massive Sanctions on Russia as 50-Day Deadline Looms

U.S President Donald Trump has issued a blistering 50-day warning to Russia: reach a deal, or face the full force of U.S. tariffs and sanctions. Speaking on the Ukraine-Russia war, Biden declared he’s ā€œon nobody’s sideā€ — except the side that wants the killing to stop. But if Moscow doesn’t act, the U.S. is ready to strike economically. With time ticking and global tensions high, this could mark a major turning point in the war — or a slide into deeper confrontation. What happens if the Kremlin refuses? And is Biden ready to follow through? #Biden #Russia #UkraineWar #Putin #BidenSpeech #USPolitics #Sanctions #Tariffs #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineCrisis #RussiaSanctions #BidenWarning #InternationalRelations #GlobalTensions #BidenVsPutin ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

Trump DEFENDS Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Files Fury, Accuses ā€˜Selfish’ MAGA World Of Undermining Bondi

President Donald Trump vigorously defended Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein documents, accusing his own MAGA allies of orchestrating an unfair campaign against her. At a recent rally, he lambasted critics, saying they’re ā€œall going after AG Pam Bondiā€ despite her "fantastic job." Trump blamed "selfish people" for obsessing over the Epstein Files—penned by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Brennan, and Biden appointees—rather than celebrating what he calls ā€œthe perfect administration.ā€ He claimed MAGA is being undermined by endless distractions and urged focus on issues like border security, Energy Dominance, election fraud, and public safety. Trump dismissed calls for renewed scrutiny of Epstein, referencing fallout from alleged ā€œfake dossiersā€ and expanded investigations. He praised Bondi’s ongoing work into the 2020 election and emphasized America’s resurgence. His remarks reignited MAGA infighting and shifted attention from past controversies to future political battles. #Trump #PamBondi #EpsteinFiles #MAGA #AGDefense #ElectionFraud #SelfishCritics #BorderSecurity #EnergyDominance #FEMA #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #TrumpRally #EpsteinDocs #ObamaComeyBrennan #FakeDossier #2020Election #MAGAConflict #ElectionInvestigation #TrumpSpeech #BondiDefense ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~
