Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren is asking President Obama to make public classified information in the international trade deal that he?s asking Congress to ?fast track? -- the latest incident in which the populist, first-term Democratic senator appears critical of the president?s relationship with Wall Street and big business.

At issue is the Trans-Pacific Partnership, known as the TPP -- a significant deal with 11 Pacific Rim nations that aims to create a free trade zone in the Asia-Pacific region.

A letter dated Saturday and co-signed by fellow Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, was written in response to Obama's suggestion that critics of the TPP, specifically Warren, were wrong about the trade deal and ?dishonest? when they claim the TPP is a secret deal.

However, Warren and Brown argue in the letter that by deeming the draft text classified and from public view, the Obama administration has, in fact, made the deal secret.

?As a result of your administration?s decision, it is currently illegal for the press, experts,

Simply stated, if Congress is too chickensh*t to properly impeach Obama, as he well deserves for a 100 different infractions, then at best, they can stonewall this criminal administration and refuse to approve anything he does.

Make the next two years the record for lame duck, and America will benefit.
