Warren on Letterman now.

For her new book "A Fighting Chance"
She said the banks are bigger and loading up on the same risky investments as before 2008 crash. And the banksters are expecting us to bail them out again.
And after the 2008 crash they spent a million $ a day lobbying mainly against the consumer protection agency

And she talked about the $ trillion student debt right now and how we need to raise taxes on the rich to pay at least the same rate as the rest of us to pay for the debt.
