In line with the several states that made similar declarations, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and other Democrats introduced legislation on Thursday that would make racism a &#8220;public health crisis.&#8221;
According to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/sen-warren-dems-propose-center-on-anti-racism-in-health">Fox News</a>, Warren joined forces with Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) and Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) to promote the <a href="https://pressley.house.gov/sites/pressley.house.gov/files/Anti-Racism%20in%20Public%20Health%20Act%20bill%20text.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Anti-Racism in Public Health Act,</a> which would therefore put COVID-19 restrictions in the same square as Black Lives Matter protests.
“It is time we start treating structural racism like we would treat any other public health problem or disease: investing in research into its symptoms and causes and finding ways to mitigate its effects,&#8221; Warren said in a statement. &#8220;My bill with Representatives Lee and Pressley is a first step to create anti-racist federal health policy that studies and addresses disparities in health outcomes at their roots.”
Ayanna Pressley, a member of the squad, said that the federal government has failed to address &#8220;structural racism&#8221; for long enough.
“For far too long, our federal government has failed to recognize and address the structural racism that has devastated Black and brown communities and denied access to quality health care,” Pressley said. “With the COVID-19 pandemic unveiling and exacerbating racial disparities in health outcomes, it is time we recognize and treat structural racism and police brutality as the public health crises that they are.&#8221;
The legislation seeks to create a &#8220;National Center for Anti-Racism&#8221; at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to research and explore racism&#8217;s health impacts. It would also create a &#8220;Law Enforcement Violence Prevention Program&#8221; at the CDC as a bulwark against police brutality. Though the Black Lives Matter protests were an undeniable source of the bill&#8217;s inspiration, another was the fact that black Americans were disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
As Dr. Anthony Fauci stated in the early days of the pandemic, black Americans had a high level of comorbidities that led to higher death rates.
“We have a particularly difficult problem of an exacerbation in health disparity,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-trump-warns-black-americans-at-higher-risk-from-coronavirus">Fauci said</a>. “We’ve known literally forever that diseases like diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and asthma are disproportionally affecting minority populations, particularly African Americans.”
“Unfortunately, when you look at predisposing conditions that lead to a bad outcome with the coronavirus – the things that get people into ICUs, require intubation, and often lead to death – they are just those very comorbidities that are unfortunately disproportionately prevalent in the African American population,” Fauci continued. “So we’re very concerned about that, it’s very sad, there’s nothing we can do about it right now except to try and give them the best possible care to avoid those complications.”
As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/michigan-nevada-declare-racism-a-public-health-crisis-another-state-expected-to-do-so-soon">reported</a> in August, the states of Michigan and Nevada declared racism a &#8220;public health crisis.&#8221;
“Today, I also signed an executive directive declaring racism as a public health crisis in Michigan,” Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer said. “We have a lot of work to do to eradicate the systemic racism that black Americans have faced for generations, and it’s going to take time. But the most important thing we can do during this time is work closely with leaders across the state, in every community, to find the root cause of problems and work to eradicate them.”

On Tuesday, America’s most famous non-Native American <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgiS-1FiC98">spoke at the Native American caucus meeting</a> featured by the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trolls-flood-dnc-native-american-event-elizabeth-warren">Democratic National Committee</a>, and her name was Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).
Elizabeth Warren infamously claimed in the past that she was part Cherokee Indian and that she had had “high cheek bones like all of the Indians do.” As far back April 1986, Warren <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-elizabeth-warren-claimed-american-indian-ryan-saavedra">claimed American Indian ancestry</a> in her application for the State Bar of Texas. &#8220;Warren filled out the card by hand in neat blue ink and signed it,&#8221; The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/elizabeth-warren-apologizes-for-calling-herself-native-american/2019/02/05/1627df76-2962-11e9-984d-9b8fba003e81_story.html">reported</a>. &#8220;Dated April 1986, it is the first document to surface showing Warren making the claim in her own handwriting. Her office didn’t dispute its authenticity.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Here is the form Elizabeth Warren filled out for the State Bar of Texas claiming American Indian heritage. <a href="https://t.co/VwHifS7BCL">pic.twitter.com/VwHifS7BCL</a>
&mdash; Amy Gardner (@AmyEGardner) <a href="https://twitter.com/AmyEGardner/status/1092941590555971585?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 6, 2019</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;The Texas bar registration card is significant, among other reasons, because it removes any doubt that Warren directly claimed the identity,&#8221; the Post added. &#8220;In other instances, Warren has declined to say whether she or an assistant filled out forms.&#8221;
In February 2019, The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/elizabeth-warren-apologizes-cherokee-nation-taking-kassy-dillon">reported</a> that Warren apologized to the Cherokee Nation after she had released a DNA test from the previous October that showed she was as little as 1/1,024 Native American. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/01/us/politics/elizabeth-warren-cherokee-dna.html">The New York Times</a> reported that Cherokee Nation spokeswoman Julie Hubbard said Warren had a &#8220;brief and private&#8221; call with Bill John Baker, the principal chief of the Cherokee Nation.
&#8220;I understand that she apologized for causing confusion on tribal sovereignty and tribal citizenship and the harm that has resulted,&#8221; Hubbard reportedly said. &#8220;The chief and secretary of state appreciate that she has reaffirmed that she is not a Cherokee nation citizen or a citizen of any tribal nation.&#8221;
&#8220;Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong,&#8221; said Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. in <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/411633-media-embrace-of-warrens-1-1024th-heritage-an-epic-failure">a statement to media</a> after Warren released her the test. &#8220;It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven.&#8221;
In February 2020, over 200 members of the Cherokee Nation and other Native American tribes <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/more-than-two-hundred-native-americans-sign-letter-demanding-elizabeth-warren-clarify-comments-about-cherokee-heritage">wrote a harsh lette</a>r to the Warren campaign, stating:
<blockquote>Your history of false claims to American Indian identity and the defense of these claims with a highly publicized DNA test continue to dog your political career. For Native Americans, this moment is more than an annoyance; it represents the most public debate about our identity in a generation. In a country where Indigenous people are mostly invisible, what Americans conclude from this debate will impact Native rights for years to come&#8230;
When you still defend yourself by stating you believed what you heard growing up, you set a harmful example for these white people stealing Native identity and resources with stories very similar to your own &#8230;</blockquote>
On Tuesday, speaking on issues revolving around Native Americans. Warren stated, “You know, this is all wrong. Just deep down wrong.”
She had a point.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) held a $6 million fundraiser for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden this week despite having denounced high-dollar fundraisers during her failed presidential campaign.
In comments denouncing high-dollar fundraisers, Warren told reporters during a campaign stop in February that we are &#8220;tearing this democracy apart.&#8221;
&#8220;She talked in early states like Iowa and New Hampshire about her disdain for the typical fundraising practices used by most candidates; she was often rewarded with thunderous applause (but not enough votes),&#8221; The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/elizabeth-warren-said-fundraisers-would-tear-this-democracy-apart-on-monday-she-raised-6-million-for-joe-biden/2020/06/16/665fa19c-afe7-11ea-856d-5054296735e5_story.html">notes</a>. &#8220;She talked about it on the debate stage, where she zinged other candidates for raising cash in fancy settings — like a California wine cave. She talked about it in friendly interviews with anchors like MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.&#8221;
Despite the high-minded rhetoric, Warren held a $6 million virtual fundraiser for Biden on Monday night that featured more than 600 attendees.
“Joe Biden has a heart for people,” Warren <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-16/biden-fundraiser-with-elizabeth-warren-nets-6-million">said</a>. “And at a time when Donald Trump’s agenda is more cruel and more heartless by the day. We need a man at the White House who has spent his entire life fighting for people. We need steady and competent leadership. We need Joe Biden to be the next president of the United States to heal this nation and to save our democracy.”
The New York Times and ABC News have both reported in recent days that Warren has emerged as a top-tier contender under consideration by the Biden campaign to be his running mate.
The Washington Post also highlights Warren&#8217;s reversal on super PACs. Despite having emphatically declared on her campaign site that she &#8220;REJECTS SUPERPACS,&#8221; the senator dropped that stance after a pair of primary losses. The $15 million super PAC Persist was launched, with  &#8220;nearly all of its money&#8221; coming from a single donor: Silicon Valley philanthropist Karla Jurvetson, the Post notes.
As for her supposed ban on high-dollar fundraising, the Post also points out that a &#8220;careful read of the February 2019 pledge&#8221; reveals that she did not mention some types of fundraising events, only pledging to ban organized fundraisers during the primary phase of the election — &#8220;though she later said in a CBS interview that she would continue to avoid such events if she became the nominee.&#8221;
The question of whether she would help another candidate raise money was not addressed in her pledge.
Warren&#8217;s campaign was plagued by numerous episodes that called into her question her honesty, including <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/06/politics/elizabeth-warren-native-american/index.html">claims</a> about her ancestry, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/resurfaced-video-warren-fired-pregnant">claims</a> that she was fired for being pregnant, <a href="https://www.factcheck.org/2019/11/warren-misleads-on-her-kids-schooling/">claims</a> that she sent her children to public school, and <a href="https://reason.com/podcast/elizabeth-warren-is-lying-about-her-own-medicare-plan/">claim</a> that she had a plan to pay for her healthcare plan.
The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/where-does-elizabeth-warren-stand-issues-heres-josh-hammer">highlighted</a> Warren&#8217;s policy stances in a lengthy profile piece last year that noted that she is &#8220;a firm progressive who routinely takes far-left, populist-inspired political stances on policies pertaining to the economy and the regulatory state.&#8221;

Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden has reportedly narrowed his list of potential vice president running mates to six candidates as his selection process enters a second round of vetting.
The top names include failed Democrat presidential candidates Sen. Elizabeth Warren (MA) and Sen. Kamala Harris (CA). The other big name to appear on the list is former Obama national security adviser Susan Rice.
The other three names on Biden&#8217;s reported short list include Rep. Val Demings (D-FL), Atlanta Democrat Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, and New Mexico Democrat Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham.
&#8220;Biden&#8217;s vetting committee had conversations with a larger group of women earlier this spring; those continuing on in the process have been asked to turn over financial records, past writings and other documentation,&#8221; the Associated Press <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/bidens-vp-list-narrows-includes-warren-harris-susan-71224628">reported</a>. &#8220;Biden has had various public and private interactions with many of the women his vetting committee has considered thus far, but has not yet had any formal one-on-one interviews expressly to discuss the No. 2 spot on the ticket. Those aren’t expected for several weeks.&#8221;
Failed Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate and far-left activist Stacey Abrams told Stephen Colbert on &#8220;The Late Show&#8221; on Wednesday that she has not been contacted by Biden&#8217;s campaign about being considered for vice president, despite her aggressive campaigning to be selected.
<iframe title="The Sad Saga of Stacey Abrams | SUPERcuts! #781" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ncEr2bA9p7k?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Rice would be a controversial pick for Biden given her extensive history of not being truthful about political scandals, including the Sept. 11, 2012 <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2015/10/21/fact-checking-the-benghazi-attacks-2/">attack</a> on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, and the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/ari-fleischer-susan-rice-email-has-exposed-her-total-lie-about-being-unaware-of-the-flynn-unmasking">unmasking</a> of then-national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Warren also has a well documented history of dishonesty which analysts have said doomed her presidential campaign, including her &#8220;debunked allegation that she’d been fired from a school job for being pregnant, and her false claims that her kids had never attended private schools,&#8221; National Review <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/03/elizabeth-warren-campaign-undone-by-dishonesty-not-policy/">reported</a>.
Earlier this week, Biden said that he wanted to pick a &#8220;strong&#8221; running mate who would be &#8220;ready to be president on day one.&#8221;
“It’s really important that whomever you pick as a vice president agrees with you in terms of your philosophy of government and agrees with you on the systemic things that you wanna change,” Biden said. “And is, in fact, going to be able to be someone who is not at all intimidated by the president, not at all intimidated walking in the White House. And is going to be prepared to give their unvarnished opinion and be able to privately argue with the president if they disagree. I want someone strong. I want someone strong, and someone who can — who is ready to be president on day one.”
Many in the Democrat Party are reportedly pushing Biden to pick a minority woman to be his running mate due to the heightened racial tensions that have emerged in recent days over the death of George Floyd.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) famously swore off high-dollar fundraisers during her campaign to be the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, but now that she&#8217;s no longer competing for the top job, she&#8217;s apparently open to breaking her promise.
The <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/23/us/politics/biden-fundraising-elizabeth-warren.html">New York Times reports</a> that Warren will host the next high-dollar &#8220;virtual&#8221; fundraiser for the Joe Biden for President campaign &#8212; fundraisers that typically command up to $100,000 per attendee, based on previous invitations. A previous &#8220;virtual&#8221; event with failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had ticket slots ranging from $2,300 per &#8220;plate&#8221; into the six figures, even though there were no &#8220;perks,&#8221; like photo opportunities, associated with the fundraiser.
Warren refused to do any high-dollar fundraising events during her presidential campaign, even though she had previously raised millions through private donor events just months before, during her Senate re-election campaign.
&#8220;The senator held high-dollar fundraisers during her 2018 Senate reelection campaign. However, along with fellow populist and 2020 rival Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, she eschewed them early in 2019 soon after launching her campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination,&#8221; <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/after-swearing-off-top-dollar-fundraiser-warren-to-hold-one-for-biden">Fox News reports</a>.
Instead, Warren&#8217;s team raised money through online small-dollar fundraising efforts and through unaffiliated super PACs that were, in fact, allowed to raise millions, but without Warren&#8217;s input or any Warren appearances.
The decision hurt Warren, limiting how much money she was able to raise for her own campaign, especially after interest in her presidential efforts declined markedly. Warren&#8217;s 2020 effort was over almost as soon as it begun when, in November of 2019, she was unable to fully explain how she planned to implement a &#8220;Medicare for All&#8221;-style healthcare system in the United States without raising taxes on the middle class &#8212; even as her fellow progressive, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), insisted that taxes would be raised across the board, but would be balanced out by healthcare savings.
Warren even attacked former Vice President Joe Biden over his high-dollar fundraising efforts.
&#8220;In the first 24 hours of his presidential campaign (welcome to the race!), Joe Biden raised $6.3 million,” Warren&#8217;s campaign team wrote in an email to supporters back in April. “How did Joe Biden raise so much money in one day? Well, it helps that he hosted a swanky private fundraiser for wealthy donors at the home of the guy who runs Comcast&#8217;s lobbying shop.”
“Elizabeth is building a grassroots movement without holding any big-money private fundraisers where you can only talk to her if you write a big check first. Without taking a dime from federally registered lobbyists or PACs of any kind. It’s the right thing to do,” the email said.
She also blasted former South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg for holding a &#8220;wine cave&#8221; fundraiser in Silicon Valley during his campaign.
Now that her campaign is over, it seems Warren doesn&#8217;t have the same commitment to fundraising principles.

Elizabeth Warren Breaks Ban On High-Dollar Fundraisers, Will Hold Donor Event For Biden

2020 Election

Former Vice President and presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is expected to announce his running mate soon, and competition for the slot is heating up, particularly among female former contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is still in the running, according to behind-the-scenes reports, and she&#8217;s made major shifts in her policy agenda since concluding her presidential campaign. Last week, she officially abandoned her support for a socialist, &#8220;Medicare for All&#8221; health care plan &#8212; something she and Biden had tangled over in early Democratic debates.
Speaking to the Institute of Politics at the University of Chicago, Warren said she is now more inclined to revising the Affordable Care Act, or &#8220;Obamacare,&#8221; than overhauling the American health care system into a fully single-payer operation, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/21/warren-vice-president-271938">according to Politico</a>.
&#8220;I think right now people want to see improvements in our health care system, and that means strengthening the Affordable Care Act,&#8221; she told students in a virtual lecture.
That&#8217;s a major pivot for the Massachusetts senator, who once made &#8220;Medicare for All&#8221; a hallmark of her presidential platform &#8212; a hallmark so important to her that she accused Biden of &#8220;running in the wrong presidential primary&#8221; when he refused to admit a &#8220;Medicare for All&#8221;-style overhaul was necessary to fix the ailing American healthcare system.
In a later interview, Warren said she &#8220;wasn&#8217;t sure&#8221; where Biden was &#8220;going&#8221; when he asked her whether Medicare for All would require an across-the-board tax hike, including on middle class families.
Biden, for his part, is a strong defender of Obamacare, something he considers to be a major Obama administration achievement. When confronting Warren over his and former President Obama&#8217;s health care policy, he called her approach to replacing Obamacare, “angry,” “elitist,” “condescending” per Politico.
Now, Warren is trying to smooth over the divide, likely because Biden is about to select a running mate, and she&#8217;s still technically available.
&#8220;Warren’s policy-centered, team-player pitch is counting on Biden caring more about Jan. 20 than Nov. 3, when he makes his vice presidential pick,&#8221; the outlet reported Thursday. &#8220;In other words, that the current crisis has elevated governing concerns above political ones — and that the times call for someone with her policy chops and, yes, plans.&#8221;
She&#8217;s also issued a number of policy outlines, including a full coronavirus response document, and she&#8217;s said to be working closely with Biden&#8217;s own policy teams on his presidential platform.
She is up against stiff competition, however. Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) is also angling for the job, as is Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who proudly announced, earlier this week, that she&#8217;d begun preliminary conversations with Biden over the Veep slot. Georgia&#8217;s Democratic minority leader Stacey Abrams and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) are also said to still be in the running.

Elizabeth Warren Reverses On Medicare For All As Veep Race Heats Up

Former Vice President and presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is expected to announce his running mate soon, and competition for

Elizabeth Warren Reverses On Medicare For All As Veep Race Heats Up | The Daily Wire

https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2020/05/GettyImages-1205322864-scaled.jpg

Democratic donors and operatives are eyeing Sens. Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren as top potential picks to be Joe Biden’s vice president.
Harris (D-CA) is the favorite among major party donors and Biden campaign officials, according to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/10/kamala-harris-early-biden-vice-president-favorite-248615">Politico</a>. Warren (D-MA) is running second in the veepstakes with support from the party’s progressive wing.
Biden supporters’ feelings toward Harris have apparently grown warmer since the senator delivered one of the most aggressive attacks on Biden from any presidential candidate throughout the campaign.
Since the Democratic primary effectively ended, Biden and Harris have had several phone calls. Harris has refrained from directly lobbying the former vice president to be the other half of his ticket, however for most presidential campaigns, overt lobbying by potential VP picks is considered impolite if not rude.
“Clearly, she is out there and being supportive of Joe, but she is coming at it from a position of strength,” one Democratic donor told Politico. “She has continued to prove herself as a team player for Joe, a team player for Senate Democrats and that’s going to benefit her regardless of whether she’s picked for VP.”
In the second Democratic debate in June, Harris <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-kamala-harris-hammers-joe-biden-over-his-frank-camp">hit</a> Biden over his previous opposition to forced bussing to combat segregation in the school system. She also ripped into his work with segregationist senators, though he was against segregation himself.
“I do not believe you are a racist, and I agree with you when you commit yourself to the importance of finding common ground,” Harris said. “But I also believe – and it’s personal – it was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country. And it was not only that, but you also worked with them to oppose bussing.”
Allies of Biden have largely chalked up the June debate to the rough and tumble of politics. They have dismissed concerns that the former vice president might hold a grudge against Harris, and Biden allies are taking note of her vocal support for Biden since ending her campaign.
“The vice president and his team knew full well the primary was going to be tough going in and that every candidate was in it to win,” Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE), one of Biden’s early endorsers, told <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/11/us/politics/kamala-harris-biden-vp.html">The New York Times</a>. “And the openheartedness and the genuineness with which Senator Harris has endorsed the vice president, embraced him and supported him, is all that matters now.”
While Warren is favored by the Democratic Party’s progressive base, Democratic donors have voiced staunch opposition to Biden picking her as his second.
“I think a lot of the donor base, on board and coming, would prefer almost anyone but Elizabeth. I don’t see him choosing her for veep” a longtime Biden fundraiser told <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/30/donors-pressure-joe-biden-to-not-pick-elizabeth-warren-as-vp.html">CNBC</a>.

Report: Harris, Warren Are Top Contenders In Biden’s Hunt For VP

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) claims to want transparency and has a history of calling on politicians and government officials (mostly Republicans) to release documents and records. Yet now that former Vice President Joe Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee – and Warren is a potential VP candidate – the senator has gone silent when it comes to Biden releasing his files at the University of Delaware.
As The Daily Wire’s Ryan Saavedra previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-sent-operatives-to-university-to-go-through-his-records-refuses-to-release-them">reported</a>, Biden sent campaign operatives to the University of Delaware – where the former vice president’s Senate records are located – after he was accused of sexual assault by former Senate staffer Tara Reade. Reade made her allegations on March 25, claiming Biden pushed her up against a wall, groped her, and penetrated her with his fingers when she worked for his Senate office in 1993. Biden is now refusing to allow public access to his senate records at the university.
Biden defended the move by saying those records could be taken out of context and used against him by the Trump campaign. Well, yeah, that’s how every campaign in history has operated. Biden has no doubt used this exact same tactic, yet once again he has created a separate set of rules for himself.
As for Warren, her record on calling for the release of records seems to have ended with Biden. Recall that in September 2018, shortly after then-Supreme Court Justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh was dubiously accused of sexual assault, Warren tweeted: “Brett Kavanaugh has played along with the Trump Administration hiding tens of thousands of pages of documents from his time in government service, and now more questions. We need a full and fair investigation – what is he hiding?”
During the brief but expensive time that former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was a 2020 presidential candidate, Warren demanded Bloomberg release women from non-disclosure agreements so that they could come forward to talk about alleged sexual harassment by the candidate.
“I hope you heard what [Bloomberg’s] defense was, ‘I’ve been nice to some women,&#8217;” Warren said during the February 19 Democratic debate. “That just doesn’t cut it. The mayor has to stand on his record, and what we need to know is exactly what is lurking out there. He has gotten some number of women, dozens, who knows, to sign non-disclosure agreements both for sexual harassment and for gender discrimination in the workplace.”
“So, Mr. Mayor, are you willing to release all of those women from those non-disclosure agreements so we can hear their side of the story?” Warren asked.
Warren continued to grill Bloomberg during that debate over how many women had signed non-disclosure agreements and what was included in them.
So far, Warren has not called for Biden to release any of his documents that may help Reade or give more transparency to the American people. In fact, on Monday, Warren said Biden’s response to Reade’s claims was “credible and convincing.” For the record, Biden didn’t address any of Reade’s specific claims, he simply said “It is not true. I’m saying it unequivocally – it never happened. It didn’t. It never happened.” Such a denial was not sufficient from Kavanaugh for Warren.

In a prerecorded interview featured on Wednesday&#8217;s “Full Frontal,” host Samantha Bee joined Senator Elizabeth Warren to mock Senator Ted Cruz, saying that the benefit of members of Congress self-isolating because of the coronavirus was they would not have to be around him. Bee stated, “Are you able to at least take comfort in the fact that self-isolating reduces the risk of having to have a conversation with Ted Cruz?” Warren sniped, “You remember Ted Cruz was one of the first to go into quarantine, and it did not make things worse in the Senate.” Bee added, “You know, it&#8217;s always important to find brightness where you can. You just look for those little points …” Warren: “Little points of light.”
Warren should know better than to tangle with Cruz; in January, growing more and more desperate as she slid down the polls in the Democratic presidential race, she stated that on the first day in office after she were elected president she would cancel student loan debt for up to 42 million Americans and simply ignore what Congress had to say about it.
As The Washington Examiner reported, “The Democratic presidential candidate said, in <a href="https://elizabethwarren.com/plans/student-loan-debt-day-one?source=soc-WB-ew-tw-rollout-20200114">a plan released Tuesday, </a>that she would direct her secretary of education to &#8216;compromise and modify&#8217; federal student loans consistent with her plan to cancel up to $50,000 in debt for 95% of student loan borrowers.”
Warren bragged on Twitter:
<blockquote>When I was elected to the Senate, I used every opportunity and tool available to ease the burden of student debt. I fought to lower interest rates, refinance loans, and hold loan servicers and debt collectors accountable for breaking the law and hurting borrowers … Understand this: The Department of Education has broad authority to end the student loan debt crisis. When I&#8217;m president, I plan to use that authority.</blockquote>
Pulling out her identity politics card, she stated, “Canceling student loan debt is a racial justice issue.” Warren pontificated that she would simply ignore Congress, stating, “We have a student loan crisis—and we can&#8217;t afford to wait for Congress to act. I’ve already proposed a student loan debt cancellation plan, and on day one of my presidency, I’ll use existing laws to start providing that debt cancellation immediately.”
Cruz fired back on Twitter, “Which clause of the Constitution gives a President the authority to give away a trillion $ w/o Congress? And if you like this policy, how would you feel if/when a GOP president does it for something you don’t like? Here’s a better idea: follow the Const &amp; don’t be a dictator.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
One month later, Warren submitted a question to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, who presided over President Trump’s impeachment trial. Roberts read aloud Warren&#8217;s query, &#8220;At a time when large majorities of Americans have lost faith in government, does the fact that the chief justice is presiding over an impeachment trial in which Republican senators have thus far refused to allow witnesses or evidence contribute to the loss of legitimacy of the chief justice, the Supreme Court, or Constitution?&#8221;
Cruz <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-cruz-goes-over-the-4-critical-questions-he-asked-during-impeachment-qa">chortled</a>, “Elizabeth Warren helped defeat the impeachment of the president of the United States. That stunt helped deliver the votes of Lisa and Lamar,&#8221; referring to Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Sen. Lamar Alexander, both of whom were sought by Democrats to demand more witnesses be called in the trial.
In addition to their snarky comments about Cruz, the show on Wednesday featured Bee genuflecting at Warren’s feet, as <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/print/255710">Newsbusters</a> reported. Introducing the interview, Bee gushed, &#8220;So, in search of calming and meaningful leadership, I called my President, Elizabeth Warren, and she answered.&#8221;
Bee stated to Warren, &#8220;I wanted desperately to vote for you, and you dropped out of the race, and it felt like the end of the world.” She continued later, “I know that you dropped out of the race, but is there a way that you could drop back in? It&#8217;s just a thought I had.”

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) finally gave in to inevitability Wednesday and endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden for president in a dramatic video posted to social media.
Warren was the last remaining holdout of the major players competing for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. Former South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) endorsed Biden shortly after dropping out of the race, ahead of the Super Tuesday primaries, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who dropped out of the race just last week, endorsed Biden on Monday.
Warren, who dropped out last month, may have been waiting for a deal to endorse Biden &#8212; a deal that never came. Former President Barack Obama, who reportedly backed Warren early on even against his own Veep, negotiated with Sanders, not Warren, to provide progressive policy consulting on Biden&#8217;s presidential campaign, likely leaving Warren with little choice but to join the chorus of endorsements without any payback.
Warren&#8217;s endorsement came in the form of an extended video presentation, prepared for social media &#8212; a largely black and white retrospective of Joe Biden&#8217;s career.
&#8220;In this moment of crisis, it’s more important than ever that the next president restores Americans’ faith in good, effective government—and I’ve seen Joe Biden help our nation rebuild. Today, I’m proud to endorse  <a class="css-4rbku5 css-18t94o4 css-901oao css-16my406 r-1n1174f r-1loqt21 r-1qd0xha r-ad9z0x r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0" dir="ltr" role="link" href="https://twitter.com/JoeBiden" data-focusable="true">@JoeBiden </a>as President of the United States,&#8221; Warren wrote.
The video was followed closely by a fundraising plea: &#8220;Now it’s up to all of us to help make <a class="css-4rbku5 css-18t94o4 css-901oao css-16my406 r-1n1174f r-1loqt21 r-1qd0xha r-ad9z0x r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0" dir="ltr" role="link" href="https://twitter.com/JoeBiden" data-focusable="true">@JoeBiden </a>the next president.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;Empathy matters. And, in this moment of crisis, it&#8217;s more important than ever that the next president restores Americans&#8217; faith in good, effective governmen,&#8221; Warren says in the video. &#8220;Joe Biden has spent nearly his entire life in public service. He knows that a government run with integrity, competence, and heart will save lives and save livelihoods. And we can&#8217;t afford to let Donald Trump continue to endanger the lives and livelihoods of every American.&#8221;
Biden thanked Warren for her endorsement in his own Twitter post.
&#8220;We are in a battle for the soul of this nation and I&#8217;m proud to have the fiercest of fighters, Senator @ewarren, on my side,&#8221; he wrote. &#8220;With her help, we&#8217;re going to beat Donald Trump and create a government that works for everyone — not just the wealthy and well-connected. Let&#8217;s do this.&#8221;
Warren was once considered a front-runner for Biden&#8217;s vice president slot but has since been pressed off the list of contenders by governors and other lawmakers actively involved in the coronavirus response and, it seems, by Democratic contenders who performed markedly better than the Massachusetts Senator in the primaries.
Warren never made it past a fourth place finish in most contests and found herself in a swiftly declining campaign in mid-November, after failing to make a coherent argument as to how she planned to pay for massive expansions of the federal government, including a Medicare-for-All healthcare plan.
Biden is now the presumptive Democratic nominee and will go on to face President Donald Trump in November.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz unloaded on his Democratic colleagues on Friday in response to Sen. Dianne Feinstein sending a letter to President Trump declaring that she is &#8220;disappointed&#8221; in his administration&#8217;s plan to block funding to the world&#8217;s leading state sponsor of terrorism, Iran. The Democrats&#8217; demand of Trump to help Iran get $5 billion in aid, Cruz noted, comes &#8220;at the exact same time&#8221; that they are &#8220;blocking desperately need relief to small businesses in America.&#8221;
In late March, a group of Democratic lawmakers — among them Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Ilhan Omar (MN), and Rashida Tlaib (MI), and Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) — sent a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Treasury Sec. Steve Mnuchin calling for the easing of U.S. sanctions on Iran during the coronavirus pandemic, a request that was dead on arrival. Iran has since requested $5 billion in aid from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). In response to the Trump administration indicating that they have no intention of allowing the terror-sponsoring state to get the massive infusion of money, Sen. Feinstein sent her own letter on Thursday expressing her disappointment.
&#8220;The coronavirus has hit Iran hard, with the potential for even greater spread in the region,&#8221; the high-ranking Democratic senator tweeted Thursday along with a copy of her letter. &#8220;In the interest of international security, President Trump should support Iran’s request to the IMF for emergency funds to contain this virus.&#8221;
&#8220;I am disappointed to see reports that your administration intends to block Iran from receiving $5 billion in humanitarian aid from the IMF to combat the coronavirus pandemic,&#8221; the letter begins. &#8220;Providing these funds to Iran would help it respond more effectively to the disease and mitigate the risk of further destabilization in the region.&#8221; She goes on to urge Trump to reconsider so that the infamously tyrannical regime can receive the billions in aid from the IMF.
Feinstein&#8217;s letter was issued the same day that Senate Democrats blocked an urgent request from Sec. Mnuchin to increase the amount of cash in the emergency small business loan program recently established by Congress from $350 billion to $600 billion.
In response to the pair of moves, Cruz called out Feinstein and the Democrats for what he suggested were some backward &#8220;priorities.&#8221;
&#8220;The Ayatollah leads chants of &#8216;death to America.&#8217; He pledges to destroy America, which he calls &#8216;the Great Satan.&#8217; And Senate Dems want to send him millions???&#8221; Cruz tweeted. &#8220;At the EXACT SAME TIME, Senate Dems are blocking desperately need relief to small businesses in America.&#8221;

As the <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/04/09/democrats-opt-for-blackmail-over-small-business-money/">New York Post&#8217;s editorial board</a> explains, instead of agreeing to the desperately needed increase in cash on Thursday, the Democrats &#8220;issued partisan demands&#8221;: &#8220;They insisted the new money include $60 billion for &#8216;community-based lenders&#8217; that serve minorities, women, nonprofits and other groups. And the bill also had to OK an immediate $250 billion for cities, states, hospitals, food stamps and other needs.&#8221;

&#8220;And if they don’t get their way, no one gets a dime more,&#8221; the Post&#8217;s editorial board noted. &#8220;Never mind that businesses face bankruptcy or that 17 million people filed for jobless benefits in recent weeks.&#8221;

On Wednesday, democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) finally threw in the towel and suspended his campaign, and President Trump suggests there&#8217;s one particular person to thank for his demise — and a bunch of other folks in the party he was hoping to lead that are celebrating.
Shortly after informing his campaign staff of his decision in a call, the Vermont senator announced the suspension of his campaign in a livestream Wednesday. &#8220;I wish I could give you better news, but I think you know the truth, and that is that we are now some 300 delegates behind Vice President Biden, and the path toward victory is virtually impossible,&#8221; said Sanders, as reported by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/08/politics/bernie-sanders-drops-out/index.html?utm_term=link&amp;utm_source=twCNN&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=2020-04-08T15%3A22%3A57">CNN</a>. &#8220;So while we are winning the ideological battle and while we are winning the support of so many young people and working people throughout the country, I have concluded that this battle for the Democratic nomination will not be successful. And so today I am announcing the suspension of my campaign.&#8221;
After starting off the primary season with a bang, taking the lead, or close to it, in each of the first three primaries — a development that sent shockwaves through presumptive nominee Joe Biden&#8217;s suddenly imploding campaign — Sanders saw his prospects dramatically darken after moderates rushed to Biden&#8217;s rescue and helped the former vice president blow Sanders out in South Carolina and on Super Tuesday.
While Biden&#8217;s the big winner here, the person most to blame for the democratic socialist&#8217;s downfall, Trump suggested in a tweet Wednesday, is Sanders&#8217; fellow far-left senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).
&#8220;Bernie Sanders is OUT!&#8221; Trump tweeted. &#8220;Thank you to Elizabeth Warren. If not for her, Bernie would have won almost every state on Super Tuesday!&#8221;
Though he suggested that Warren deserved most of the credit for Sanders&#8217; second presidential failure, in the end, Trump suggested, it was the Democratic establishment that torpedoed his campaign.
&#8220;This ended just like the Democrats [and] the DNC wanted, same as the Crooked Hillary fiasco,&#8221; Trump said, referencing complaints that the Democratic National Committee &#8220;rigged&#8221; the nomination process in favor of Hillary Clinton in 2016. &#8220;The Bernie people should come to the Republican Party, TRADE!&#8221;
In a follow-up post, Trump expressed surprise that Sanders wasn&#8217;t immediately giving his delegates to Biden. &#8220;Wow, Bernie is unwilling to give up his delegates, and wants more of them!&#8221; Trump wrote. &#8220;What’s that all about?&#8221;

As The Daily Wire&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-bernie-sanders-will-suspend-his-presidential-campaign">Emily Zanotti</a> wrote Wednesday, Sanders&#8217; delegate game is likely about trying to gain more influence in the party. &#8220;Sanders has not said, yet, whether he intends to redistribute his 897 delegates to Joe Biden, who currently has 1,208,&#8221; wrote Zanotti. &#8220;More than likely, he will retain the support in order to press for greater influence over the Democratic Party’s platform, which will undergo a major makeover at the convention in August.&#8221;
One of the big signs that Sanders was truly out of the contest, Zanotti notes, came in late March, when his most prominent far-left surrogate, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), broke with the campaign and declared a need to solidify around the presumptive nominee. Meanwhile, as CNN reported, &#8220;Sanders fundraising machine, the most successful grassroots donor effort in American political history, was over the last month repurposed into a feeder for public health groups.&#8221;

Trump On Bernie Dropping Out: We All Know Who To Thank And Why This Actually Happened

Three Democrat senators are using the coronavirus pandemic to urge Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to delay providing college students their constitutional rights to due process.
Of course, that’s not how the senators worded <a href="https://www.help.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/033120_LTRDeVosTitleIX%20v.2.pdf">their letter</a> to DeVos, sent Tuesday, but that is the gist of their argument since they are demanding DeVos delay new Title IX regulations that change the way schools across the country adjudicate claims of sexual misconduct. DeVos’ proposed rules would require schools to provide accused students the ability to properly defend themselves from allegations, a basic tenet of the justice system that has been absent in college Title IX tribunals.
Sens. Patty Murray (D-WA), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) were the only three senators to sign the letter, saying that “while schools are grappling with how to maintain basic services for and supports to their students, it is wholly unacceptable for the Department to finalize a rule that fundamentally will change the landscape of how schools are required to respond to incidents of sexual harassment and assault, and we urge you to reconsider this misguided plan.”
“K-12 schools and institutions of higher education face unprecedented uncertainty about the end of this school year and the start of the next school year. The federal government should be doing everything possible to help them navigate these uncertain times. To ask K-12 schools and institutions of higher education to implement in this moment of crisis and extreme uncertainty a rule that, as proposed, would force them to significantly alter how they handle allegations of sexual harassment and assault is reckless and inappropriate,” the senators continued. “We urge you not to release the final Title IX rule at this time and instead to focus on helping schools navigate the urgent issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic that is top of the mind for all students and families.”
The lack of due process rights have led to students (almost exclusively male students) finding themselves with only one option to clear their names and defend themselves: Sue their schools in a court of law. Unfortunately, many of the students accused do not have the financial means to file a lawsuit. Still, more than 600 lawsuits have been filed alleging Title IX violations by accused students since the Obama administration urged schools to find more students responsible.
In 2011, the Obama administration issued guidance that suggested schools needed to find more students responsible in order to show they were taking sexual misconduct seriously, while providing almost no due process rights for accused students. Women have since used Title IX to <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/university-of-colorado-settles-with-student-accused-of-sexual-assault">punish men</a> <a href="http://thefederalist.com/2017/07/11/allegheny-college-settles-student-peer-says-falsely-accused-assault-revenge-not-dating-girl-slept/">who rejected them</a>, avoid <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/judge-rules-ohio-state-title-ix-official-can-be-personally-liable-for-helping-rape-accuser-lie/">getting kicked out of school</a>, or <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/she-lied-about-being-raped-now-men-she-accused-are-ashe-schow">for sympathy</a>. To date, more than 200 court rulings have favored accused students and blasted schools for ignoring evidence that the male student was not guilty of what he was accused.
In response to the senators’ letters, criminal defense attorney Scott Greenfield tweeted sarcastically: “To ask schools to implement in this moment of crisis and extreme uncertainty a rule that would force them to [provide male students with minimal due process] is reckless and inappropriate.”
Samantha Harris, an attorney with the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, added: “These transparent efforts, from people who have made clear from the get-go that they will do anything they can to stop these regs from ever being implemented, are absurd. They are exploiting this crisis, plain and simple.”

Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) and Ilhan Omar (MN) are among a group of Democratic lawmakers calling on the Trump administration to end sanctions on Iran during the coronavirus pandemic.
&#8220;I led a letter with [Rep. Ocasio-Cortez] and [Sen. Bernie Sanders] demanding this Administration end sanctions against Iran during the COVID-19 pandemic,&#8221; Omar tweeted Tuesday. &#8220;These sanctions aren’t changing the behavior of the Iranian government, but directly punishing innocent civilians.&#8221;
Ocasio-Cortez also took to Twitter to publicize her role in pushing for the easing of sanctions on Iran by retweeted a post from the author of a report on the letter: &#8220;[Ocasio-Cortez], [Sanders], [Omar], and [Sen. Elizabeth Warren] &amp; co want to suspend sanctions on Iran that make it hard to import meds, PPE &amp; respirators despite one of the world&#8217;s biggest COVID-19 outbreaks and Trump&#8217;s claims of having made enough humanitarian concessions,&#8221; reads the tweet from Huffington Post foreign affairs reporter Akbar Shahid Ahmed.

As reported by the <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-sanctions-iran-coronavirus_n_5e831295c5b603fbdf490a1d">HuffPost</a> on Tuesday, Omar, Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders are among over two-dozen Democratic lawmakers who signed a letter sent to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin on Tuesday demanding the administration &#8220;suspend sweeping U.S. sanctions on Iran that are hindering the country’s response to its massive coronavirus outbreak.&#8221;
&#8220;Allowing this crisis to become more dire in Iran threatens significant harm not only to the people of Iran but also to people in the United States and around the world,&#8221; the letter reads.
&#8220;Our many disputes with the government of Iran or others should not stand in the way of actions that can materially help innocent people weather a pandemic,&#8221; the Democratic lawmakers assert.
As a precedent for such an action, the letter notes that President George W. Bush’s administration &#8220;eased sanctions&#8221; and &#8220;delivered aid&#8221; to Iran after the 2003 earthquake near Bam.
Among the sanctions relief they are demanding are &#8220;those that encompass major sectors of the Iranian economy, including those impacting civilian industries, Iran’s banking sector and exports of oil.&#8221; The easing of sanctions should last &#8220;for at least as long as health experts believe the crisis will continue,&#8221; the lawmakers insist.

HuffPost cites some of the alarming COVID-19 statistics coming out of Iran, including more <a href="https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html">2,750 deaths</a> in connection to the virus and more than 40,000 infections.
Along with Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, and Sanders, former Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (MA) signed the letter.
During the course of his presidency, Trump has withdrawn from the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal and ramped up pressure on Iran by placing increasingly punitive sanctions on the country, which is the world&#8217;s leading state sponsor of terrorism.
While HuffPost notes that the sanctions &#8220;restrict Iran’s ability to earn foreign currency by selling oil abroad and to trade with international firms, limiting its imports of medicine and materials it needs to produce drugs domestically,&#8221; and have damaged the country&#8217;s ability to gain access to specialized medical equipment, Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has turned down U.S. offers of aid.
<div class="content-list-component yr-content-list-text text" data-rapid-cpos="8" data-rapid-subsec="paragraph" data-rapid-parsed="subsec">
&#8220;The U.S. preserved loopholes for food and medical trade with Iran and acknowledged its need by offering aid, American officials have noted, but Iran’s Supreme Leader <a href="https://iranprimer.usip.org/blog/2020/mar/23/khamenei-refuses-us-help-covid-19" data-ylk="subsec:paragraph;cpos:8;elm:context_link;itc:0" data-rapid-parsed="slk" data-rapid_p="8" data-v9y="1">rejected</a> the offer,&#8221; HuffPost reports. &#8220;Last month, Trump <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-swiss-formally-open-humanitarian-trade-channel-to-iran-11582846163" data-ylk="subsec:paragraph;cpos:8;elm:context_link;itc:0" data-rapid-parsed="slk" data-rapid_p="9" data-v9y="1">authorized</a> a new channel for humanitarian exports to the country that allows companies to seek approval for deals from the U.S. and Swiss governments without fear of incurring American penalties.&#8221;
Despite Trump opening the new channels, &#8220;producers of vital supplies are still nervous about fines, as American authorities continue to target violators of the sanctions and impose new ones, and are reluctant to deal with byzantine U.S. regulations that cover broad swathes of the Iranian economy, from banks to parts of the military,&#8221; HuffPost notes.

Failed presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) began her political career – and her campaign – decrying the reliance on Super PACS, “dark money,” and allowing billionaires to buy politicians.
Once her campaign started flailing, however, she reversed her position on all these past statements. She still claimed she wanted money out of politics, it was just that she needed more money to get to a position of power where she could tell other people they couldn’t raise too much money from specific people.
Now the Super PAC that popped up in the waning days of her campaign has filed its financial disclosure, and The Intercept’s Glenn Greenwald has gone through it and found that a single donor provided almost all of the funding for Persist PAC.
“Elizabeth Warren’s SuperPAC has finally filed its disclosure. The vast majority of its money &#8211; $14.5 million &#8211; came from a single donor: Karla Jurvertson, a super-rich Silicon Valley funder who had previously donated to the DNC on behalf of Warren’s campaign,” Greenwald reported on Twitter.
This same donor previously gave the Democratic National Committee a check for $100,000, which she demanded be used to aid Warren, specifically.
“The Warren campaigned had previously obtained a $100k donation to the DNC to allow it access to a valuable database, so it’s not as if <a href="https://twitter.com/ewarren">@ewarren</a> can credibly claim this SuperPAC donor &#8211; who donated almost $15 million in dark money &#8211; was some stranger,” Greenwald continued, pointed to a July 2019 Buzzfeed <a href="https://t.co/QDmBYtRq9Q?amp=1">article</a> that showed Warren’s campaign reached out to a major donor to give the money to the DNC so the campaign could access a major voter database.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Warren herself did not reach out to Jurvertson, which allowed her to claim she didn’t violate her pledge not to allow big donors to pay for access. As Buzzfeed’s Ruby Cramer said at the time, however, the donation “risks putting [Warren] at odds with the spirit, if not the letter, of her pledge.
Greenwald further reported that Karla Jurvertson is married to venture capitalist Stephen Jurvetson, who was “an early investor in Elon Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX.” Karla is one the board of Emily’s List, a prominent Democrat fundraising organization that helped produce smear ads against Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
“Why didn’t Karla Jurvetson just say all along she was the one pouring almost $15m of dark money into Warren’s SuperPAC? Why disclose it only once it no longer matters? Is Warren going to denounce Jurvetson for doing this &amp; refuse future donations? Is <a href="https://twitter.com/emilyslist">@emilyslist</a>
good with this?” Greenwald asked.
“So basically, <a href="https://twitter.com/ewarren">@ewarren</a> — who mocked ‘wine cave funderaisers [sic]’ — had her campaign crash when it was running on the fumes of venture capitalist oligarch wealth, delivered in the form of $14.5m dark money SuperPAC contributions from a single donor. Sounds like the right ending,” Greenwald continued.

As The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/now-that-shes-losing-elizabeth-warren-rethinks-ban-on-super-pac-cash">reported</a>, Warren only changed her stance on accepting money from big donors once she started losing. She defended her obvious hypocrisy by saying she was doing it because no other Democrat listened to her – which itself was a damning indictment of her ability to lead.
“So, here’s where I stand. If all the candidates want to get rid of super PACs, count me in. I’ll lead the charge,” Warren said. “But that’s how it has to be. It can’t be the case that a bunch of people keep them and only one or two don’t.”

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) bashed President Trump on Thursday morning for a tweet in which the president defended himself for not immediately invoking wartime measures, despite signing an order approving such emergency actions. 
“President Trump, are your eyes stitched shut?” asked Warren in a tweet. “Hospitals need test kids, ventilators, &amp; other medical supplies. That’s why the [Defense Production Act] exists. Stop dragging your feet &amp; burying your head &amp; start helping hospitals that are about to be slammed by this pandemic.”
According to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-signed-defense-production-act-case/story?id=69670828">ABC News</a>, Trump’s tweet was a response to the previous day’s executive order, which grants the president emergency authority to tell industries what they need to produce to support the national defense. 
But when Warren called on Trump to immediately invoke emergency authority, the former Democratic presidential candidate also blurred the word “Chinese” from the original tweet, which references the coronavirus strain that has caused a global pandemic as the “Chinese Virus.”
“I only signed the Defense Production Act to combat the Chinese Virus should we need to invoke it in a worst case scenario in the future. Hopefully there will be no need, but we are all in this TOGETHER,” said the president. 
The tweet showing Warren’s response features the word “Chinese” blurred from Trump&#8217;s original message.

As <a href="https://www.southampton.ac.uk/news/2020/03/covid-19-china.page">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported, a study from the University of Southampton has estimated that China could have reduced the global infection rate of coronavirus had the communist regime enacted public health measures sooner. 
“If interventions in the country could have been conducted one week, two weeks, or three weeks earlier,” says the study, “cases could have been reduced by 66 percent, 86 percent and 95 percent respectively – significantly limiting the geographical spread of the disease.”
According to <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51403795">The BBC</a>, Dr. Li Wenliang, an ophthalmologist who was the first person to warn Chinese doctors about coronavirus, was investigated by Chinese state police for his actions. Wenliang has since died from the virus. 
Warren’s decision to blur the word “Chinese” comes as many media outlets and pundits have chosen to condemn the president for invoking China when discussing the outbreak — a national emergency that <a href="https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html">Johns Hopkins University’s Coronavirus Resource Center</a> says has resulted in 17,402 Americans testing positive as of Friday afternoon. 
In an news article published on Wednesday, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/18/us/politics/china-virus.html">The New York Times</a> described the president’s use of the word “China” amidst “growing criticism.”
“The term has angered Chinese officials and a wide range of critics, and China experts say labeling the virus that way will only ratchet up tensions between the two countries, while resulting in the kind of xenophobia that American leaders should discourage,” reported the news agency. 
On the same day, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/18/opinions/trumps-malicious-use-of-chinese-virus-filipovic/index.html">CNN</a> published an op-ed saying the president was “maliciously” invoking the term “Chinese virus” to generate racial animus and hostility toward Chinese people and away from himself. 
“When Donald Trump wants to rally his base and distract from his many screw-ups, he falls back on one thing: xenophobic racism. It looks like members of his administration have picked up this dirty trick … This President isn’t acting out of ignorance; he’s acting out of malice … in the midst of the crisis, we need … a whole lot less of the presidential fecklessness and Trump Team racism that puts us all at greater risk,” wrote Jill Filipovic in an op-ed for the news agency.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has yet to issue an endorsement in the race for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination &#8212; something she was largely expected to do upon dropping out of the race herself &#8212; and she says that&#8217;s because she&#8217;s been far too busy saving the United States from the effects of coronavirus.
Appearing remotely on the The View on Thursday, Warren said she&#8217;s just &#8220;too focused&#8221; on the coronavirus crisis to think deeply about the two men still in the running for the nod.
&#8220;So, actually, I have been focused on this crisis,&#8221; Warren said. &#8220;You know, I think Bernie needs space to decide what he wants to do next, and he should be given the space to do that. Right now, I’m focused on what we’re going to do next in this crisis around the coronavirus. We talked in the last segment a lot about the health parts of it. But we also — it’s not too early to start talking about the economic impact of this.&#8221;
&#8220;What it means that so many small businesses have now shut down, what it means that big businesses are shuttering their doors, how many people are unemployed, how many people are going to get one more paycheck or two more paychecks and that’s going to be it for a while,&#8221; Warren went on. &#8220;And how as a country we’re going to weather not just the storm directly from the virus, the physical health, but our economic health as well. So that’s where I’m really keeping my attention right now and I hope we can talk about the details of that.&#8221;
Warren has been pressing the economic platform from her presidential campaign as a solution to the economic repercussions of a nationwide coronavirus-related shutdown, and has said that no relief package will be complete unless it includes protections for those paying off student loans. Ideally, Warren says, she&#8217;d like a complete student loan bailout, alongside bailouts of the airline and entertainment industries.
&#8220;Warren said for now she wants to raise Social Security and disability payments as well as forgive student loans to alleviate the financial burden on people affected by the coronavirus,&#8221; <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/03/19/elizabeth-warren-hasnt-endorsed-biden-sanders-focusing-coronavirus/2878415001/">USA Today reports</a>.
That said, Warren is now weeks out of her departure from the presidential race and, unlike many of her former competitors, has resisted issuing an endorsement, despite clear evidence that former Vice President Joe Biden is the likely nominee. Although Warren agrees more forcefully with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on a number of policy issues, the vast majority of Democratic bigwigs are throwing their support behind what is, arguably, the &#8220;consensus&#8221; pick for the nomination.
Warren may be waiting out the possibility of being offered the &#8220;vice president&#8221; slot on the ticket &#8212; Joe Biden is now famously locked into selecting a female running mate, thanks to a pledge made on the fly in the last presidential debate &#8212; or she may be looking to peddle her position for influence within the party (though she has only a handful of delegates and did not win a single primary contest).

The following is satirical.
As the mighty herds of buffalo have left the great plains of her ancestors, Elizabeth Warren has left her campaign to become the first fake Native American president. Warren buried her heart and announced she would fight no more forever as she walked away in a trail of tears and other Native American cliches.
Left-wing pundits and other wastes of God’s precious gift of life blamed Warren’s defeat on the fact that she was a woman. On Knucklehead Row, the op-ed section of the New York Times, a former newspaper, editor-in-chief Blithering Prevarication the Third wrote a stinging column headlined, “Now I Will Lie in Order to Promote Identity Politics.” The headline was later changed when the editors realized Mr. Third had just written that as a joke in a whimsical moment of truth-telling.
The op-ed read in part, “It’s true that at one point Democrat voters made Warren their frontrunner. But rampant sexism changed all that when she announced her unworkable and unaffordable healthcare plan and voters suddenly realized that women can’t do math or use reason. This disgusting prejudice has to stop so that a person without the ability to reason can become president. Otherwise, we’re just going to keep electing Republicans.”
Other Democrat pundits lamented that we now probably won’t get a female president in their lifetime. When it was pointed out that Nikki Haley could win the presidency in 2024, Democrats objected that Haley was not a woman but a Republican. Then they retired behind closed doors to change the rules so that Tulsi Gabbard couldn’t get into the next debate.
Asked about the matter of sexism, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said, “When people refer to me as the most powerful woman on earth, it almost makes me cry. That’s that cackling noise you hear when I am locked in the bathroom, dancing around the blood-drenched sacrifice with which I offered my soul to Satan in return for all this wonderful, wonderful power.”

Looking to unload after a resounding electoral rejection, former campaign staffers for Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) have been publicly blasting Alex Thompson, the Politico correspondent tasked with covering Warren’s presidential campaign, for not adequately cheerleading the senator’s presidential run. 
“Some Warren campaign staffers don’t have a good understanding of campaign journalism,” said Thompson in a tweet thread Saturday morning. “Not my job to ‘actively support the candidate that you were assigned.’ It is my job to contact as many [people] as possible rather than just rely on what the campaign wants to give me.”
Thompson then provided screenshots of public tweets he’s received from several former Team Warren staffers, including two ex-staffers telling him to “eat sh*t” — albeit one of them used the poop emoji instead of spelling it out.

After Thompson sent an open tweet Friday asking for stories from the campaign, another ex-staffer replied with “somebody come get this man,” an online reference that means somebody is out of line. 
Another staffer proceeded to inform Thompson about exactly what she thought went wrong with the campaign. 
“[H]ere’s what went wrong, Alex, and I’ll tell you because I have nothing left to lose: media outlets/reps LIKE YOU chose to drive the narrative by reporting only on the struggles, rather than successes,” said another ex-staffer. “You never had any intention of actively supporting the candidate.”
“F***ING ELEVATE HER GODDAMN THOROUGHLY-RESEARCHED AND EXPERT-BACKED POLICY PROPOSALS U F***ING TROLL,” exclaimed the staffer in a separate tweet. 
Kristen Orthman, Warren’s communication director, was forced to issue a public ‘reminder’ tweet about what doesn’t constitute appropriate behavior. 
“I understand being upset. I am too. But inappropriate language toward other campaigns or the press is never what our campaign or [Elizabeth Warren] is about. Let’s keep the fight focused on the issues,” said Orthman.

Amidst the controversy, Daily Beast editor Sam Stein weighed in on the sudden behavior from former Warren staffers: “I really can’t recall campaign aides deciding collectively to unload so quickly on the press and their primary opponent like Warren aides have today.”

New York Magazine journalist Yashar Ali, who previously worked for Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) when he was mayor of San Francisco, noted an interesting fact about former Warren staffers going off on a reporter. 
“I’ve lost campaigns and been angry but find it interesting that *some* Warren staffers who complain about abusive tweets from Bernie supporters are now tweeting in a similar fashion,” remarked Ali.

According to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/06/joe-biden-bernie-brothers-twitter-123310">Politico</a>, former Vice President Joe Biden told donors on Friday that he was anticipating that some Bernie supporters would run a negative campaign against him, except he referred to them as “Bernie Brothers” instead of the colloquial “Bernie Bros.”
“What we can’t let happen is let this primary become a negative bloodbath,&#8221; said Biden, reports the news agency. &#8220;I know I’m going to get a lot of suggestions on how to respond to what I suspect will be an increasingly negative campaign that the Bernie brothers will run. But we can’t tear this party apart and re-elect Trump. We have to keep our eyes on the ball, in my view.”

‘Eat S***’: Ex-Warren Staffers Blast Reporter Who Didn’t ‘Actively’ Cheerlead For Campaign

Looking to unload after a resounding electoral rejection, former campaign staffers for Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) have been publicly blasting Alex

Bernie supporters hoping to see Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) endorse their favorite candidate to defeat former Vice President Joe Biden might have to wait a long while. As Warren exited the presidential race on Thursday, she ripped into Sen. Bernie Sanders&#8217; (I-VT) army of online trolls (a.k.a. Bernie Bros) and tacitly blamed her &#8220;friend&#8221; and colleague for the abuse she received.
&#8220;It&#8217;s not just about me, I think it&#8217;s a real problem, with online bullying and organized nastiness. And I&#8217;m not just talking about people who said mean things. I&#8217;m talking about some really ugly stuff that went on,&#8221; Warren told MSNBC&#8217;s Rachel Maddow, as reported by <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/03/06/elizabeth-warren-condemns-bullying-bernie-sanders-supporters/4972959002/">USA Today</a>.
Warren then recalled some of the abuse that she received as well as the abuse that several women who worked for her campaign and other organizations endorsing her received.
&#8220;Out in Nevada,  when Unite Here [union] had put out an analysis of the different candidates and their views on healthcare and other issues, and some of the Bernie supporters online took exception to it,&#8221; explained Warren. &#8220;They actually published the home numbers and phone addresses of the two women, the executive director and the communications director, women of color, immigrant women, and really put them in fear for their families. These are tough women, tough women who run labor organizing campaigns and have really earned their union jobs. And yet, they said for the first time, because of this onslaught of online threats, they felt really under attack.&#8221;
While not explicitly blaming Bernie Sanders for this abuse, Warren did say that candidates do share some responsibility for what their supporters do online.
&#8220;I think there is a fundamental question of what goes on online and where those lines are, and how much each of us, and I want to say this for all the candidates: We are responsible for the people who claim to be our supporters and do really threatening ugly dangerous things two other candidates,&#8221; exclaimed Warren.
&#8220;And it&#8217;s a particular problem with Sanders supporters?&#8221; asked Maddow.
&#8220;It is. It&#8217;s just a factual question. It is,&#8221; responded Warren.

Elizabeth Warren ended her failed presidential campaign on Wednesday after staying in the race through Super Tuesday despite having no pathway to victory and the fact that Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Mayor Pete Buttigieg dropped out and immediately endorsed Joe Biden. President Trump and others have argued that Warren intentionally stayed in through Super Tuesday to sabotage Sanders&#8217; chances. Given the fact she has yet to give him an endorsement, it is clear that the two share some bad blood.
&#8220;So selfish for Elizabeth Warren to stay in the race,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1235176283740524546?s=20">tweeted</a> Wednesday morning. &#8220;She has Zero chance of even coming close to winning, but hurts Bernie badly. So much for their wonderful liberal friendship. Will he ever speak to her again? She cost him Massachusetts (and came in third), he shouldn’t!&#8221;
&#8220;The Democrat establishment came together and crushed Bernie Sanders, AGAIN! Even the fact that Elizabeth Warren stayed in the race was devastating to Bernie and allowed Sleepy Joe to unthinkably win Massachusetts,&#8221; he later added. &#8220;It was a perfect storm, with many good states remaining for Joe!&#8221;
