Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said she is among the majority of senators who see Tulsi Gabbard as a security threat if she is confirmed as the director of national intelligence. President Donald Trump picked the former Democratic representative in the early days after he won the election.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren asked Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to commit that he would not profit from his work as Secretary of Health and Human Services, Wednesday at his first confirmation hearing with the Senate Finance Committee: SEN.

Kennedy Jr. earned more than $2.4 million as a consultant referring cases to the law firm Wisner Baum, government records show. Wisner Baum is suing Merck & Co. over allegations that the pharmaceutical company failed to properly warn patients about HPV vaccine risks.

If he's put in charge of Health and Human Services, he has a whole tool box of ways that he very quietly can undermine vaccines and vaccine manufacturers—and he can get rich doing it.”

On Thursday’s (January 30) episode of The View, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren was the first guest of the day, on tap to respond to her grilling of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Warren pointed out that the government financial disclosures Kennedy filed as part of the confirmation process said he had made $2.5 million from a law firm that has sued vaccine manufacturers.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) raised her voice to yell back at Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in his confirmation hearing on Wednesday as the Health and Human Services nominee tried to twist her question in knots.

The exchange erupted when Warren asked Kennedy about his previous anti-vaccine statements, which he appeared to walk back during the hearing.

He wants to keep cashing in on lawsuits against drug makers, as his confirmation hearing for health secretary makes clear.

“Here’s something President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and I agree on: the federal government throws away trillions of dollars on wasteful spending,” she wrote in the op-ed. “I have spent years trying to squeeze government waste out of our budget.”

We can bring down the deficit by cutting spending, but we can also improve our financial position by making millionaires and billionaires pay their fair share.
