We face a very serious political problem in this country, and that problem

Once upon a time, the world had two popes. Today we have two acting
directors of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
In 1378, two men each claimed the papacy. One was Urban VI, an Italian who
was elected by cardinals in Rome. The other was Clement VII, who was elected
by French cardinals and reigned from Avignon—where a succession of French
popes had lived for most of that century.
