Massachusetts being Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren (D-Cherokee Nation) is still in the Senate, and while she maintained a relatively low profile during the presidential campaign, she is now sending up new smoke signals. After years of turning a blind eye to the massive corruption of the Biden crime family, to say nothing of the Clintons and other leftists, Warren has suddenly discovered that public servants shouldn’t enrich themselves at the public trough, and she’s demanding action. The only problem is, as you may already have suspected, she is demanding it of all the wrong people.
The intrepid former Native American has decided to use insinuations of a conflict of interest as a rhetorical weapon against Donald Trump and Elon Musk. When, however, Warren sent out her shot across the Trump camp’s bow, she didn’t get the defensiveness, apologies, and resignations that leftists have come to expect from supine uniparty Republicans. Quite the contrary, in fact.
Warren asserted in a snippy letter to the Trump transition team that “putting Mr. Musk in a position to influence billions of dollars of government contracts and regulatory enforcement without a stringent conflict of interest agreement in place is an invitation for corruption on a scale not seen in our lifetimes.”
Wait — not seen in our lifetimes? Has Elizabeth Warren been so consumed with tribal matters that she hasn’t heard of Hunter Biden and the cushy job he got with the Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma despite having no knowledge, experience, or education in the field? Oh, and his father just happened to be vice president at the time.
Has Elizabeth Warren been so busy passing around the peace pipe that she hasn’t noticed how her pal Nancy Pelosi and her husband are absolute wizards at the stock market, repeatedly selling off stock — what a coincidence! — just before some government action that will have a negative impact on the company involved?
Heedless of her glaring double standard, Warren’s smoke signal continued: “As your Transition Team Ethics Plan makes clear, the role of government is not to line the pockets of the wealthiest Americans; a strong, enforceable ethics plan for the world’s richest man is a necessary first step for delivering on that promise… Moving forward, will he recuse himself from matters affecting Tesla, Space X [sic], X, or any other company he owns or in which he has a substantial investment? Currently, the American public has no way of knowing whether the advice that he is whispering to you in secret is good for the country — or merely good for his own bottom line.”
Heap big trouble for Trump and Musk, eh? No. Not only is Warren’s demand patently one-sided and politically motivated, but Trump’s team is not disposed to take it lying down. Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt on Monday sent Warren a teepee-shaking response: “President Trump,” Leavitt wrote, “has assembled the most impressive and qualified team of innovators, entrepreneurs, and geniuses to advise and staff our government. Pocahontas can play political games and send toothless letters, but the Trump-Vance transition will continue to be held to the highest ethical and legal standards possible—a standard unfamiliar to a career politician whose societal impact is 1/1024th of Elon Musk’s.”
This statement should be preserved as an example of how patriots should fight back against the left. “Pocahontas,” of course, was Trump’s unforgettable nickname for Warren after she was unmasked as a fake, having claimed for decades to be a Native American while not having any actual native ancestry. Leavitt’s statement that Warren’s “societal impact is 1/1024th of Elon Musk’s” was a riotous reference to Warren’s disastrous decision in 2018 to prove Trump wrong with a DNA test, only for it to show that she was no more than 1/1024th Native American, at best.
Warren’s silly letter to the Trump team, however, does indicate that the left, as quiet as it has been regarding Trump lately, is formulating its game plan for the next four years, and will be doing everything it can to impede Trump from making America great again. Baseless conflict of interest complaints are just the beginning. The drive to destroy the nation and put in its place a socialist internationalist monstrosity has not ended. The left is not going to rest, and patriots should study how best to respond from Karoline Leavitt’s letter-perfect reply to the senator who will forever be known as Pocahontas.
We must mock these leftist as Trump does and continue with the important work of fixing what they have been trying to destroy. Take a page from Alinskys rules for radicals, using “ridicule as a tactic to weaken and discredit one’s opponents..”
Fauxcahontas really angry now, Musk is traitor in her Indian eyes. She make war drums talk. She demand much wampum for warriors. She organize big attack.
She so mad she not learn anything from the election.
Dum dum dum dum Dum dum dum dum
Fauxcahontis is upset that an actual 100% Indian (East) and an African, (white) are going to be in charge of calling her BS. Like Hannibal Smith said….I love it when a plan comes together.
Pocahontas, INDEED! Move over Mr. Spencer-your words always ring true, but President Trump has found himself
a real winner to join you. I can’t wait till he and his whole crew get to work!!! Fight, Fight, FIGHT!!!
Reflexively-Marxist is hard to de-program. It’s in their algorithm.
She is clearly accustomed to operating in the left-wing echo chamber from many moons ago.
Warren, the rich commie, just likes to hear herself talk. She is an unaccomplished political nobody who has a big mouth and the annoying habit of lots of decisive hand gesturing to emphasize the B.S. she spews.
Mr Spencer I have read many of your books & articles but I have to say, none has made me laugh this hard. “(D-Cherokee Nation)”
More projection from Warren, typical of most Dems. Their assumption is that successful entrepreneurs usually achieve their success through subterfuge and questionable business tactics. Normal people recognize Intelligence, talent, and hard work as the ingredients to success in any endeavor.
As somebody who lied and scammed herself into fortune and fame, by pretending to be what she is not….she is unfamiliar with “intelligence, talent and hard work” being the qualifiers for success. .
This woman is not sane by any reputable scale. That she usaf her phony American Indian connection to obtain preferential treatment is the most obvious clue. How can people on Massachusetts keep sending her to DC to represent them???
she looks more like Porkahantas go me. Oink oink.
And is the dumb bitch ever going to change her smelly jacket?
Warren is more Jeep Cherokee than Indian Cherokee.
I don’t remember her moaning about Reid Hoffman, George Soros and Zuckerberg.
Silly Robert! Don’t you know that corruption is not a crime unless the Republicans are doing it? And even the mere appearance of corruption on the part of a Republican is the same as actual guilt.
How fortunate we are to have such a noble and innocent person as Elizabeth Warren to let us know who is corrupt!
This was a really fun one, Mr. Spencer. Thank you.
As all good lefties she is horrified at the thought that Elon would make more money!!! One of their pillars is to assert an allergy to productivity which yields income.
