"It’s a busy time to be Mick Mulvaney.
Even before the president’s budget director also had to run the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, he faced a daunting December. The administration is in pivotal negotiations over federal spending as a Dec. 8 government shutdown looms, and his office is engaged in grueling deliberations over deep cuts the White House hopes to impose in the next budget.
Now, Mulvaney’s portfolio is even bigger.
President Donald Trump’s decision to tap him for the CFPB has not only added a consuming job, it also thrust him into the middle of a political melee, including a legal challenge by the agency’s deputy director, Leandra English, who contends she’s in charge. A U.S. judge on Tuesday rejected her request to block Mulvaney, who has indicated he’ll look to make significant changes to the consumer watchdog he once called “a sick, sad joke.””*
