    Oh but it is. All the women get focused on by the American Taliban.

    What did she say? She was concerned that banking regulations were being unwound too much and this risked another 2008? SHOCKER.

    There was a little more to it than her "concern" over banking regulations, but you imagine what you want. My disgust with politicians goes beyond her, and extends to more men than women in Congress, so what does that mean? Watch some Congressional tribunals, oh sorry, the testimonials. She and many others, male and female are really embarrassing, and seemingly lack any thought to what they are saying or the accusations they throw out at these people. This includes some people who should be getting grilled, but Warren and others go way off the rails with foolish statements and pronouncements.

  3. Pocahontas is getting louder and more obnoxious but it is understandable.

    Her presidential attempt did not work out.

    So her fall back goal was to become Treasury Secretary but the balance in the Senate is so tight that Biden could not spare her.

    Now she is trying to move Powell out and is drooling over that job herself. But, again, Biden cannot afford to move her out and have the republican governor appoint a republican. And even if he "honored" the tradition of appointing from the party of the person who left, there are plenty of dems who are more moderate than she is, plenty.

    Yeh, her career options are sort of boxed in.

    Warren knows exactly what she is talking about and her viewpoint is that a Republican headed fed is an unnecessary risk. She gives specific examples of changes. Her point is valid politically and pragmatically.

    Like the game jenga, remove this here, remove that there but eventually something unforseen happens due to the interconnections.

    You may want took at this again. "a dangerous man to head up the fed" when there are many others qualified to do the job who are both aligned with the majority politically and cognisant of the jenga pieces (my term) she made mention of.

    In any case, what she has done is wagged a finger and that is a valid thing to do. She won't have expected her objection to change his renomination. She also opposed him in 2017.
