Welcome to IHIP News. We are joined by the true blue, and I mean true blue, warrior for the people, fierce defender of democracy, one of my favorite senators, Senator Elizabeth Warren. Welcome. I understand that you have made quite the speech today that prompted a telephone call from none other than the President of the United States. Please tell us what your speech was about.
Okay, so I gave a speech about how Democrats win in November, 2026, because it starts by talking about all the things that are going on right now, invasion of Venezuela, shooting in Minnesota and saying, we must, must, must win in November and put some constraints on Donald Trump. So what I talked about is that Democrats got wiped out in 2024. We know we got to build a big tent going forward, but there are two visions of the big tent. One vision is don't offend anybody, especially the billionaires who might actually finance the upcoming elections. So, you know, nibble around the edges of anything that might increase taxes for billionaires, that might cause big corporations not to be able to merge and drive up prices, all those sorts of things.
Just be polite, soften it all and nibble around the edges on making real economic change. The alternative is to say, We recognize that American families all across this country are feeling a lot of financial stress and that Donald Trump promised to lower costs on day one, but the cost of groceries is up, the cost of utilities is up, the cost of housing is up, the cost of healthcare is up.
How do Democrats plan to win in the upcoming elections?
He has not delivered, he's delivered policies along with the Republicans that have raised costs. So our job as Democrats is to call him out and to put our own proposals on the table, show the places where we can lower costs, and best of all, show that we are willing to get in there and fight for it. So that's what the speech was about.
I really feel like you're touching upon something that is at the heart of where the Democratic Party is right now. You have the Democratic establishment that wants what you mentioned. They want their corporate donors. They want to govern incrementally. We can't make that much change. We can't do too much. We can't ruffle feathers. And then you have the group of the Democratic Party that says, enough we cannot take money from the same group of people that fund these mega politicians and be earnest and be sincere and be honest and i think that we have candidates who have shown us the way that this is possible to shed corporate money but more than anything I think that a lot of Americans feel like they've been lied to.
They feel like they've been lied to by Republicans, wealth never trickled down, and they feel like the Democrats kind of skipped over them as well.
What are the contrasting visions within the Democratic Party?
And in the throes of what we have going on right now, just, indescribable things happening simultaneously in the country, the ICE agent, the all the shakedowns that the Trump regime is doing to universities, trying to censor speech. What in the immediate sense? I remember when Mitch McConnell was the minority Senate leader. He got so much crap done. It really pissed me off, Senator. What can you all do now? And even if you can't pass anything, we feel out here in the interwebs in America that there isn't a real unified fight against this guy.
Yeah, so let's start with the North Star. The North Star is that our job as Democrats is to lower costs for American families. It's not about political credit. It's not about soothing our billionaire donors. It's lowering costs for American families. The game is rigged and it's rigged to help the rich keep getting richer and everybody else to get left behind. We have a long history as Democrats.
How is Donald Trump impacting American families economically?
We are the ones who delivered Social Security in the 40-hour workweek and union rights and overtime and Medicare and Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act and housing for veterans and first-time homebuyers. We're the ones who delivered all that against Republican opposition in every single case. And yet now, We are called on again to be a party that shows aggressively we are willing to get in that fight and deliver.
