Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts was recently grilled – on CNN of all places – about the fact that despite all of the Democrat Party’s complaints about billionaires, they are being funded for the midterms by quite a few of them.
The whole billionaire thing on the left is so tiresome. It all goes back to Bernie Sanders. He used to be the only one who talked about it but now they all do.
Of course, they all conveniently look the other way when a billionaire is ready to hand them a massive campaign donation.
It’s still hard to believe this conversation happened on CNN.
FOX News reports:
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., got defensive in a new interview as she railed against billionaire donations in politics and was asked about Democrat Troy Jackson revealing multiple billionaire donors, as well as a large possible donation from Michael Bloomberg.
CNN’s Kaitlan Collins said during an interview with Warren that Bloomberg had given about $80 million to help Democrats win the midterms after noting that Elon Musk had contributed $276 million to Republicans.
Collins asked Warren, “You’re someone who has said billionaire donors should not be in politics. Given what you’ve said, do you want Michael Bloomberg’s help here?”
“Look, what I want is to get this kind of money out of politics,” Warren said. “Right now, the Republicans know that their only chance, as they see it, to be able to hang on to the House and the Senate and some of these governors’ mansions is to be able to just drown people in money, to be able to run all the ads on TV, to lie, to cheat, and that there won’t be any opportunity for Democrats to be able to respond.”
“We need to push back because, this campaign, this 2026 midterm, really is about the money or the people. Because the Democrats have got the people on their side. The Republicans have got the money, and they think if they can spend it, they can maintain control of this country, and I sure hope they’re wrong,” Warren said, arguing for a “very different” system.

This is Peek hypocrisy from Elizabeth Warren.
Warren rants about Republicans being funded by billionaires. She’s then asked about Troy Jackson taking donations from 4 billionaires after claiming he’s taken no money from billionaires.

Democrats love their talking points about billionaires because it stokes a sense of class warfare.
Not only do they not mind being divisive, they see it as a campaign strategy.
