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.

        I’d believe this if half the population wasn’t brainwashed. They’d spin it someway and enough people would fall in line that they’d get away with it.

      We have to fight to minimize the damage we cause lashing out at other countries. Sure, there’s only so much we can do, but giving up would be even worse.
