Elizabeth Warren faced the press in her first availability as Senator-elect and her performance is leaving some a little baffled.

Senator-elect Warren appeared guarded in front of reporters and her answers were curt.

When asked about defense spending, she gestured to the governor to answer. The governor told her "defense spending is you." She laughed and replied, "Oh, that's mine. That's right."

Warren then said she felt the key thing is that "this should not be about across the board cuts."

Even Warren's answers to the non-controversial questions were short.
