Elizabeth Warren wants to be Joe Biden's Treasury secretary and will make her case for it if he wins next week, according to three Democratic officials who have spoken with her inner circle

While Warren has frequently been mentioned as a candidate for Treasury and she has developed a relationship with Biden as an economic adviser since ending her own presidential bid this past spring, there has been uncertainty about

But Warren allies say that the job is appealing because it is a once-in-a lifetime opportunity to enact some of the “big structural change” she talked about mistakes in the Obama administration's response to the Great Recession — namely, not doing enough to change the underlying systemic problems or focus on the most vulnerable.

🐍 going to get 🐍ed

Before Liz Warren stabbed her “good friend” Bernie Sanders in the back his team vetted her for Treasury Secretary. She woulda been a shoe-in. Good luck getting your reward outta the Senator from MNBA.

Let her run the IRS

No way

ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING

Another good reason not to vote for Biden.

What? Is she even campaigning for him? Where has she been?

Yes, please.

What I am worried about is that if Donald Trump does not win the election. Will try to take it to the supreme court and if he does , hell is going to break loose we the American people will not take that .. we Will fight for our country absolutely, that’s why we have to win Texas

That ought to scare the h3ll out of the big banks and Wallstreet. Good for her.

Where's your investigative reporting on Hunter & Joe? Studies show it will likely be the biggest political corruption scandal in American history, by far, & you haven't even acknowledged it. your reputation will never recover however, you're obviously not serious reporters

Only if her Senate seat is safe!

A better one u won't find

Now that’s insane!

🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍 Will get nothing.

She wants to be an Indian too, but that ain’t happening.

Lying about being Native American. What a POS!

Absolutely!

Hiawatha!!! He needs to find competent people to fill cabinet positions, not good buddies who used to be candidates!!!!

I wonder if that old sea hag was rubbing joes hairy legs under his desk ? Using China money 💴 as knee pads ? Oooooo joe I can be your treasure sexutary ! Gob gob . Don’t call me kid joe

God help us

I’ve sent several tweets to JoeBiden encouraging ewarren as Treasury Sec!! RepAdamSchiff AG or DNI 😉

Do it, Joe!!!

That’s what I have in my fantasy draft

JoeBiden Don’t measure the drapes before the results are in. Hillary did. Lesson learned.

Wow, an actual thinking and diverse Cabinet.

Biden’s inner circle would never allow this. I expect some argument that she’s needed in the Senate.

I think it should be katieporteroc

I'm good with that 🙂

I think it would be a plus if Biden gave a job to all the Dems that ran against and with him. It would show the GOP and the American people just how strong and United we are. We work together and fairly in the good and the bad.

pamwallace STOP. You don’t see it? The WH is blaming the market on Biden when we’ll probably find out they were propping it up. Warren is not a Wall St. supporter so markets may take a dive if this story continues. The WH will have more to scare people who don’t really get the details.

God help us.

ziggily She should be Secretary of education.

Yes!

In which case, I sincerely hopes he wins!

Yes! 🙏🏽

Ow, the feeling of HOPE is hurting me. If Biden wins I can finally sleep again, and with Warren as treasury secretary, i could... sigh, after the SCOTUS punch, it hurts to much to imagine the joy.

She looks as beaten up as him.

JoeBiden ewarren would make a Great Treasury Secretary!

Katie Porter!

The bench is wide and deep. ewarren could play multiple roles. Women will fix this mess.

Warren would do better as the senate Majority leader shaping policies.

This is as exciting as when I heard Maxine Waters was going to head the House Financial Services Committee

Figment of the imagination of a fool.

Yes please.

Let's see whether Joe thinks 'A woman can't be Treasury Secretary' 😉

She would be perfect in that position. I can't wait to have a competent administration!

She would be excellent in that position. Give her all the help she needs and let her go!

Please!

Terrible idea.

She would be amazing!!! ewarren

I don't see anything wrong with that.

Good

ProkopisDoukas 🙄

Republican Governor in Massachusetts.....

Who do I need to talk to in order to make that happen JoeBiden ?

Correction: “when” not “if”

Hell yes! Smart!!

I don’t think that’s the best idea.

jeffreychngo 😂😂😂 their pipe dream unless they move to China.

Whatever she wants. Give it to her. She'll be amazing at whatever role she takes on and we are lucky to have her.

As the establishment encouraged everyone to yield to Biden, the bills will come due.

ewarren will make a great Treasury Secretary!

She would be fantastic!!!

Yes. No need to waste time making a case, just get to work! We know you got plans girl!

I cant allow myself to get excited. But God this would be incredible.

Sounds like a perfect fit to me!

Massachusetts Republican Governor will appoint replacement in Senate; need enough wins to keep majority.

🐍

She was promised the position for her betrayal month's ago.

A Biden administration should seek a good fit above someone simply lobbying for the position.

YAY

I'm good with that

What do you know. More snakes..

I would love for Warren to be Treasury secretary.

We need her to tackle all of the financial crime going on. I recommend reading the FINCEN files.

A match made in heaven. 😈👿🤮🤮🤮

Awesome!

She'd do a great job, TBH she'd do a great job anywhere, but I'd really love to see her as Senate Majority Leader.

No

DO IT, JoeBiden Build Back WAY Better!

Oh yes please!

Can't wait to see the whole cabinet lineup.

YES!!!!

Sounds good to me!!

IndivisibleIL Fantastic

No. No. No.

Yes! I was hoping!

I do believe she’d be great 👍🏼

She better ease up on the benny's.

BrockMeers Fuck that. Give RBReich the job.

Well she is 1/670,997 Indian.

Imagine that- putting the most qualified people in the jobs that they know they are perfectly suited for. I can't wait to see all of Trump's MISFITS replaced with the best and brightest.

Good

Yes, with Yang by her side.

wvd11_moo This joe highly not appropriate for her to be discussing this before there is a win. Good lord her camp is so bad at this

Elizabeth Warren would be great! She is a consumer advocate watchdog and takes action.

I hope ewarren finds out if stevenmnuchin1 and Trump synchophants have plundered the Treasury for their Rich Friends.

She'd be the best one! 😁👍

Let’s win first.......

She should be/but her replacement

Here for it.

Correction... 'when' he wins

Warren is smarter then most

Is Kennedy pushing this story?

🤣🤣🤣

Only if the Senate is majority Democrat OR her replacement is a strong Democrat. We can’t have an obstructionist House or Senate.

I'll believe it when I see it. She's earned something from Joe.

I'm liking this & reading this before responding because I think Treasury Sec. Warren would be absolutely amazing, but reserving the right to call all y'all a bunch of shameless clickbait motherfuckers if this article is in bad faith.

I have been saying this for MONTHS!!

She'd rock at it, but I would so rather see her as Senate Majority Leader.

It will be a really sad day to have to watch Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Kamala Harris all leave the Senate. They are the 3 best senators. However, I'd LOVE to see them working in the Presidential administration.

She would be fantastic

stf18 Analysis?

HELL YES.

No quicker way to destroy your coalition. Just saying.

Warren would be a great Sec of Treasury. 100%

Can't she just do this privately?

Who the hell is she to demand anything

Okay, cool.

SenWarren would be a great choice. I thought MikeBloomberg wouldn't be a bad choice either.

flowshire She is the right one for that job. She crafted the CFPB and understands how all those money decisions affect people. I hope that’s the job she gets!

I’d live to see this but her republican governor would appoint a republican senator

We're in a recession. ewarren is not an economist, knows nothing of fiscal or monetary policy, and has no experience with managing nationwide stimulus programs.

Oh yes.

wvd11_moo She would be PERFECT as Treasury Secretary!

Oh my 😳

No.

YES - SenWarren for Treasury Secretary!

Let her do whatever she wants and she will fix everything!

Going full redistribution Socialism now.

Hell yeah baby!

That’s nice. Stop stirring up shit and cover the campaigns.

YES!!!!!!!!!!

Yep!

Elizabeth should get what Elizabeth wants. I love Elizabeth!

Not unless we have a deal with the Republican governor of Mass. We can't lose her Senate seat.

Im down with that!! JoeBiden will put the best people in the perfect spots, esp Bernie, Elizabeth & the Others who were candidates. And the Cabinets, Administration & ambassadors will ALL REFLECT US! Civility, maturity & integrity in skin colors, genders, religions, etc, like us

joebiden if you choose senators for your cabinet, how are thse positions filled? Governor appointed or special election? Don't want to jeopardize losing the Senate majority! (In my mind, Dems have already won 😉)

I want Katie Porter

This seems to be a bit of chicken-counting before the ones have been counted.

👑

I agree. Perfect job for you

Only if another Democratic senator will be appointed by the governor of Massachusetts.

wvd11_moo Several of us made this suggestion years ago back in May of this year.

My position is ewarren gets to do whatever she wants.

She would be great!

She would be great!!!

A GREAT REASON TO VOTE TRUMP

YES!

Think Bernie wants that job too!! Interesting!

TermLimits

How 'bout win the election first. I wouldn't go making any plans just yet.

yes please and then make her VP next time we change it up

One problem: Massachusetts has a Republican governor. If Warren vacates the seat he will name a temporary replacement. If Dems win control of the Senate, it will be on a razor thin margin.

She shouldn't hold her breathe...

Make sure the state legislature changes the law. Would be cool to end up having both Joe Kennedy and Ed Markey in the senate after all.

Buy Gold. It's over.

Good! ewarren

Warren is the Republicans worst nightmare and I am so here for it! Expose it all Elizabeth. Expose. It. All.

I also want this to happen.

She will be one hell of a Treasury Secretary compared to the A-hole we have now.

I’m 💯 on board with this!

The first family🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

She will find every coffee can of stolen money buried in every one in this administrations yard. The best choice by far.

Pocahontas's dream OUR nightmare!!

Can we not measure the drapes before the election?

SenatorAyannaPressley RepPressley AyannaPressley

Republican governor -- a non starter

Nothing wrong with that. She understands money and policies as well as Munchkin, but she has always wanted what was best for the average person. Great idea.

I always pictured her as Treasury secretary but if she takes that position we would lose her Senate seat. Now if the Dems win big in the Senate perhaps it won't matter.

Can BidenHarris win the election first? At this crucial time, anyone who tries to grab headlines from the election, or provides fodder which can be used by the gop, isn't serving the campaign well. Total focus is a necessity to continue creating positive momentum until 11/3

I’m here for it.

Salary? Opportunities? Crack on. We see you.

I love that idea, but can we afford to lose her senate seat?

Republican gov - interim appointment HELLO!!! Same thing goes for Bernie Sanders if he's going to try to make his case for a cabinet position

I would vote for that if I could!!!

Not if it means a republican senator

She would be the 1st Native American treasury secretary!

And that’s why she endorsed him. She was promised a job in return for her vote. What BS system

But MA has a Republican governor and the appointment to fill her place would be a likely be a member of the GOP. Won’t happen

I can't think of anyone better for that position. In the meantime people we have to vote!

Camel-a as VP, Bernie at labor and Pocahontas at Treasury, and this is supposed to be the most moderate D’s have to offer?Think about the radical left’s : Van Jones Education? J. Castro Justice or Homeland Security aka Office of Open borders. Could be very scary.

God help us and the USA if this idiot gets elected no!

Yes to this all day! Cc: ericparker__

I say secretary of education

Not so fast !

david_darmofal fyi

No stay in the Senate

MikeElk Standby to lose, Martha Coakley!

She's a bright woman and wouldn't be chosen based on her 'loyalty oath' and Money connections.

Does she really NEED make a case?! C'mon now

riley_crz Remember when you trashed the idea of this happening? 😩 Damn, it’s crazy how right I’ve been.

Yes they can’t give up a seat in Senate

Perhaps the smartest person in politics today.
