Sen. Elizabeth Warren , D-Mass., revealed in an interview published Monday that she was once warned by powerful Democrats not to say that the "economy is rigged" against average Americans.

Warren told New York Times Opinion editorial director David Leonhardt during his podcast, "The Opinions ," that the "powers that be in the Democratic Party," which Leonhardt interpreted as the Obama White House, instructed her in 2012 not to say the system was "rigged" in a major address.

"And they say, ‘No. Take those lines out. You cannot say that this economy is rigged.’ And I said, ‘Huh? But it is.’ And they said, ‘No, you can’t say that,’" she said on the podcast.
