Yeah -- essentially all he has to do is enact the OMB rule that he enacted at the end of his first administration that classifies any employee of a federal agency that creates policy as a political appointee, and then he can literally fire the entire staff of any federal agency. Even just firing the senior staff would be enough to erase the power of the agency.
So while it's true the CFPB would remain funded, it would also struggle to act effectively without senior staff to sign off on projects and pay salaries. This OMB rule is how Project 2025 is going to be executed, and it will go beyond chaos as they erase every federal agency including several that we all rely on within less than a year.
