Bernie Sanders launches high-profile offensive against ‘the oligarchy’
Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders is touring Iowa and Nebraska to rally against “the oligarchy,” aiming to energize progressives rather than launch a 2028 presidential bid.
At 83, he seeks to shape the Democratic Party’s future, arguing it lost in 2024 by neglecting working-class voters.
He hopes to influence budget battles and the 2026 midterms, targeting GOP lawmakers in battleground districts.
With Democrats lacking clear leadership, Sanders’ prominence and focus on economic inequality could define the party’s direction in the Trump-Musk era.

Bernie Sanders has said ZERO about voting against RFK and Tulsi Gabbard. What a shame. I know there are a lot of Bernie and AOC dickriders on Lemmy but you all should know Tulsi getting shafted by Bernie really feels like a stab in the back to MANY of his 2016 supporters.
Voting against Tulsi and RFK are both the correct choices. I used to like Tulsi but folks were right about her in the long run just being an opportunist. RFK is not a serious person and shouldn't be in charge of anything.
RFK is serious monster who should be locked up before he hurts more people.
Eh, Tulsi changed a lot since 2016. She no longer stands for pretty much any of the principles she did then.
Bernie Sanders has said ZERO about voting against RFK and Tulsi gabbard
Thats just flatly not true. Bernie grilled the shit out of RFK where others on the committee gave him a pass, and then Bernie voted no on confirming him. https://www.sanders.senate.gov/press-releases/news-sanders-statement-on-voting-no-on-rfk-jr/
and if you google "bernie speaks against rfk" and "bernie speaks against tulsi gabbard" theres endless pages of results you can look through.
On Gabbard, he spoke for her in 2019, but then she then knelt before the maga throne because the dems were done with her. Since then Bernie voted against her confirmation and is against her.
Even after they have repeatedly backstabbed him, Bernie has always showed up for the dems like clockwork. He's more reliable a dem voter than Biden and the dem centrists.

It's like you haven't done any critical thinking in a while.
The world is not what you think it is and you should consider adjusting your position to match.
