- Elizabeth Warren has released another plan, this time to tackle what she describes as the “intense coziness between giant defense corporations and our Department of Defense.” Next up, I would really like her to come up with a plan for how to keep my local dog park from getting so muddy after it rains by taxing the ultra-rich, because my girl Frankie has NOT been happy lately. [Vox/Medium]
