The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is expected to propose rules this week that further rein in banks' ability to charge customers a fee when they overdraw their bank account. While banks have drastically cut back on overdraft fees in the past decade, the nation's biggest banks still take in roughly $8 billion in overdraft fees every year, according to data from the CFPB and bank public records.
Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley argued she had momentum going forward after placing third in Iowa’s Republican caucuses Monday night. “When you look at how we're doing in New Hampshire, in South Carolina, and beyond, I can safely say tonight Iowa made this Republican primary a two-person race,” she declared -- meaning her and former President Donald Trump.

Former US Vice President Al Gore says "I don't think that it's a foregone conclusion" when asked about Donald Trump's chances of securing the Republican nomination.
