Once Again, Elizabeth Warren Attacks Citigroup
By Andrew Stiles, July 17, 2015 Free Beacon
Warren blasted Citibank (the commercial banking arm of Citigroup Inc.) and other Wall Street firms (and Hillary Clinton, by extension) in her speech to the left-wing Netroots Nations conference in Phoenix. The Los Angeles Times reports:
Sen. Elizabeth Warren did not mention Hillary Clinton by name, but the Massachusetts Democrat had some strong advice for her: Don’t get to close to Citibank.
“I think anyone running for that job, anyone who wants the power to make every key economic appointment and nomination across the federal government,” Warren said “should say loud and clear that they agree: We don’t run this country for Wall Street and mega corporations. We run it for people.” …
Warren also recited a litany of former Citibank officials who hold key spots in the Obama Administration and a reminder of the group’s sway in inserting a provision to loosen Dodd-Frank financial regulations inserted into last year’s spending bill.
