OR she is running for Biden's Veep, if Hilary can't make it thru 90 minutes of debate without a commercial.



Earlier this summer, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) became the spear tip of Hillary Clinton’s campaign, skewering Republican nominee Donald Trump in repeated head-to-head battles on Twitter.

Now, the progressive firebrand appears to be staking out her role in a potential Clinton administration as a bulwark against the influence of Wall Street.

“We believe Sen. Elizabeth Warren is succeeding in establishing herself as the chief financial policymaker in a potential Clinton White House,” Jaret Seiberg, managing director at the financial research firm Cowen Group, wrote in an investor memo on Thursday. “She has threatened to stop Clinton nominees with ties to BlackRock and other firms. And she is using the bully pulpit to shape the debate over the Wells Fargo cross-selling controversy.”

On Wednesday, Warren signaled that she would try to stop any appointment of big bank executives to Clinton’s cabinet. First, she said progressives need to vote Clinton into office. Then, she said she plans to pressure Clinton to fill her cabinet with “advisers who believe in the agenda she has outlined.”

“We don’t mean advisers who just pay lip service to Hillary’s bold agenda, coupled with a sigh, a knowing glance, and a twiddling of thumbs until it’s time for the next swing through the revolving door ― serving government, then going back to the very same industries they regulate,” Warren said in a speech at the progressive think tank Center for American Progress. “We don’t mean Citigroup or Morgan Stanley or BlackRock getting to choose who runs the economy in this country so they can capture our government.”

she undermined affirmative action requirements which gave financial advantage to someone just because of their heritage.

Don't repubs hate affirmative action? 

Weird that she took the republican position on this haha!

Al Franken, hahahaha.

Him and Warren in these hearings....oh man, you couldn't find two of the more self-absorbed, idiotic, crazy and ignorant fools in Congress and that's sayin' somethin'.

Franken was blathering on for so long during the HHA "hearing" that he didn't have time to ask an actual question. Warren just looked and sounded like a shallow, idiotic kook. None of these Dem's have anything to say. Our schools are failing and our students are being left behind so what does the Democrat Party want to focus on during the Dept of Education hearings? Gays, free stuff and trannies.

Sad.

She refused to shake the future Secretary of Education's hand and was "worried" about the stance that she'd take on "higher education"...


yet Warren has no issue with being paid $400k to teach a single class at Harvard Law.  ::)

She'll probably claim that she deserves it because there is severe under-representation of Native American professors at Harvard.

http://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2017/01/25/elizabeth-warren-hater-banks-skirts-ethics-rules/

A U.S. senator who took advantage of a loophole in ethics laws to avoid disclosing a $1.3 million credit line against her home is now warning that incomplete financial disclosures from cabinet nominees put the country at risk.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D., Mass.) warning came in the Washington Post, where she wrote that “it is critical that each nominee follows basic ethics rules to ensure that they will act for the benefit of all the American people.”

Warren argued that financial disclosures are needed to “reveal potentially damaging information that may undermine fitness to serve” and that nominees with “complex financial histories” need to be “forthcoming and transparent.”

Warren, meanwhile, continues to skirt congressional ethics laws by failing to include a $1.3 million line of credit against her Cambridge, Massachusetts, home on financial disclosure forms.

The line of credit was extended to Warren and her husband Bruce Mann in 2007 through financial giant Bank of America. It was first noted by the Boston Herald after Warren failed to included (sic) the line of credit as a liability on her 2014 financial disclosure filing. It was also absent from her 2015 filing.
