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’m commenting but also experimenting wether the /s is needed. I see I have +4 -1 with no /s right now with no /s. I think I’ll just watch to see how it unfolds.

    Remember, this is for posterity, so be honest

    edit: ok by not using a /s on your obvious snark, you will lose ~ 25% of readers.
