Elizabeth Warren’s (D-MA) recent panicky speech in Austin left little to the imagination as she ramped up her battle cry against President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
The Massachusetts senator, speaking to a crowd at the Texas State Capitol, delivered a frantic critique of what she refers to as the two billionaire “co-presidents.”
“Donald and Elon are bullies,” Warren declared, her voice shaking with frustration.
The senator begged everyone present to challenge the status quo, emphasizing that while these two men—Trump and Musk—may frighten some lawmakers, they would not scare her or her supporters.
Musk’s DOGE has already been responsible for cutting more than 60,000 federal positions since the start of the Trump administration and millions of dollars in unnecessary contracts, as previously reported by The Dallas Express.
Warren’s growing frustration over Musk’s role in dismantling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and Trump’s continued influx of executive orders prompted her to plead with the crowd to take action. She condemned Musk’s push to undermine the CFPB, a consumer protection agency she claims played a pivotal role in economic growth after the 2008 financial crisis.
“Unelected billionaire Elon Musk and his co-president Donald Trump think this country should work for billionaires and everyone else should just bow down,” Warren later posted to social media alongside a photo of the crowd.
Despite her focus on Trump and Musk’s partnership, Warren also seized the opportunity to call out a growing concern in her own party: the lack of a unified, aggressive response by liberals.
She would not, however, entertain criticism of her own party’s current tactics from anyone else. Even under pressure from journalist Kara Swisher during a podcast taping later that day, Warren refused to condemn the Democratic Party.
