The federal government is awful at enforcing its laws whether it be financial regulations, gun regulations, immigration regulations, and on and on and on.

The rule of law isn't respected.

Thank you Senator Warren, excellent line of questioning. It really shows the difference between an owned politician ad one who is working for the people. And the difference is not just one of degree, it's a fundamentally different animal.

Warren can't do it all on her own. We need to have her back (she's going to need all the support she can get, the forces she goes up against are ruthless), and even more importantly we need to find more people to run for office using her as a model of what an elected rep can and should do.

and proud to K&R it again here.

The only sad part is that it is so noteworthy that
she is just doing her job.
I wish MORE Democrats were doing their job,
and Elizabeth Warren wasn't so remarkable at all.
