OA169: Wells Fargo Goes To Jail?

Today's episode discusses the recent fines levied against Wells Fargo in connection with two specific acts of egregious fraud against consumers.  Is it enough?  Is it proof that Trump (and Mick Mulvaney) intend rigorous defense of consumers at the CFPB?  Listen and find out! First, we delve into a grab bag of items, beginning with a heartfelt apology and Andrew Was Wrong regarding trans language.  Next, we deal with a couple of wacky legal cases, before settling in on a bevy of new gun control laws passed in Maryland.  Phew! Then, we move into a discussion of Trump v. Hawaii, which was argued before the Supreme Court last week.  What's the latest on the Travel Ban? After that, our "C" segment breaks down everything Wells Fargo. Finally, we end with the answer to Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #73 about lessees, assignees, and joint and several liability.  Don't forget to follow our Twitter feed (<a href= "https://twitter.com/openargs">@Openargs</a>) and like our <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/openargs/">Facebook Page</a> so that you too can play along with #TTTBE! <span style= "text-decoration: underline">Recent Appearances</span> As this show comes out, Andrew was the guest masochist on Episode 141 of <a href="https://audioboom.com/channel/god-awful-movies">God Awful Movies</a>; check it out!
