Ace of Spades praises Mick Mulvaney. From The Hill,

Mick Mulvaney, the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), told a Senate panel on Thursday that he's not legally bound to answer lawmakers' questions, only to appear before them, in comments meant to stress his agency's independence.
"While I have to be here by statute, I don’t think I have to answer your questions," Mulvaney told the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee.

And I'm here and I'm happy to do it."
