This is the single most deranged screed of disinformation I've ever read - corporate media is declaring that because bribery, corruption and dark money have now been legalized, billionaire money definitionally cannot rig elections.
Not often you see Anderson Cooper shed a tear on air. Leave it to Cornell West to eloquently and emotionally get to the heart of what's happening. This was powerful!
Do not believe anyone tonight saying this race is over. They are purposefully trying to deflate and demoralize us. STAY FOCUSED.

We signed up for a fight. WE FIGHT!✊
Look at the body language.
Whatever Warren is saying, Bernie isn’t having any of it. I can’t even imagine what he’s feeling right now when someone you considered a close friend betrays you like that.
When people show you who they are, believe them.

FOX reporter: "the Wall Street tax would hit the average American saving for retirement."
Bernie: "What people say that?" His answer is classic Bernie Sanders.

selling points to small business owners. You will no longer have the burden of big health care costs. Your business can be more competitive. This point always resonates well with Republicans + moderates.
Jacinda Ardern wins in a landslide in New Zealand.
Luis Arce wins in a landslide in Bolivia.
If Bernie Sanders was the nominee rn, he'd win a landslide too.
Putting people and planet before the profit$ of corporations and billionaires is a winning political position.
#DearBernie
Prior to discovering you in 2015 I was an apathetic non-voter. What convinced me to sign up for this revolution wasn’t your words but how for decades you relentlessly never gave up even when you were alone. You’re not alone anymore. Stay in.
#NotMeUs
Solidarity ✊
Reminder of that time
@BernieSanders
did a FOX townhall and practically the whole audience was cheering they wanted Medicare for All.
Across the political spectrum, most agree that no one should go into debt or go bankrupt in order to get health care.
Allowing millions of Americans to go into mountainous debt when they get sick or injured is ruthless and unnecessary.
We can and must choose better. We need Medicare for All.
With Buttigieg + Klobuchar (endorsing Biden) out, let's see what Warren does today.
She's on track to lose every
#SuperTuesday
state including her home state. Devastating for one's political future.
If she really believes in her plans,
#WarrenendorseBernie
is the smart move.
Chick-fil-A is not alone in exploiting children for cheap labor. In Iowa, yes, that's a real sign at a McDonald's advertising to hire 14&15-yos.
IA's proposed extreme child labor bills SF542 + HF647 was spearheaded by the National Restaurant Assoc who represents fast food cos.
There it is - corporate socialism at its best. All of a sudden there is $1.5 TRILLION available to aid Wall Street.
How are we going to pay for it?
With that money we can create
#MedicareForAll

Today 4 years ago on March 25 a magical moment happened when a little bird flew onto

podium at his Portland rally.
That's the day the world welcomed Birdie Sanders! 🕊️

That right there is a glimpse of our massive grassroots movement! ✊
"We were targeted deliberately."
Chef Jose Andres rejects Israeli and US assertions that the strike that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers was not deliberate. He puts a call out to the home country of each victim to do investigations.
Turns out even in FOX polls that Americans want what Bernie was offering all along. "Electability."
72% Favor govt run healthcare 👈 M4A is popular
71% Leave as is Roe v Wade
55% For stricter gun laws
72% Favor pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants
Anti-Bernies: Your staff is too white and male
Bernie: *listens* makes changes
Bernie: My staff is now 70% women and many are WOC
Anti-Bernies: They're too pro-Bernie
Point: Nothing he does will satisfy them. Direct focus to 50% of non-voters. Help get them to vote
#Bernie2020
So everyone on that stage except Bernie admits that superdelegates should have the right to supercede the will of the people even if there is one candidate that has the plurality of the delegates going into the convention.
So much for democracy.

Remember this cute crochet Bernie? The maker of the doll, Tobey King, placed it up for auction on eBay, promising 100% would go to Meals on Wheels.
The final bid was $20,300...and eBay matched it so MoW gets $40,600! 😲👏🏽
#berniesmittens
Bernie didn't need to play music from his phone at rallies because listening to him talk about Medicare For All and Green New Deal was music to our ears.

Warren's gonna have to look Bernie in the face and lie on national TV that he said a woman couldn't win as POTUS in 2020.
She's betrayed her friend who's always had her back and one of many who encouraged her to run for POTUS in 2016.

Joe Biden says funding community health centers was "one of the crowning achievements" of Obamacare. Couldn't agree more. I was proud to work with Rep. Clyburn to secure that funding.
A longer clip of the interaction between Mullin and Sanders at the Starbucks hearing.
What I find amusing is how you can practically see the gears in Bernie's brain churn as Mullin spews lies. It's the lead up to Mullin getting severely berned. 😂
"But Bernie iS a mUlTi MiLLioNaiRe."
When are these Republican fools going to learn not to come for

Bernie Sanders is currently in the US trending list simply because he showed up to the

being himself.
Wearing a mask. What a great image of leadership acknowledging that Covid is still happening. More reason why Bernie is the most popular Democrat (caucus) in the US.
For $1,750.00 + $49 you can buy a new 13" MacBook Pro with a 2.4GHz Quad-Core Processor, Turbo Boost up to 4.1GHz and 256GB Storage. WAY better investment than a ticket to a lousy

No Bernie donor, who is primarily working class, is going to give their hard earned money to ANY candidate that continues to say publicly, "I do not and will not support

We donate to candidates who will fight for M4A.
According to the latest FEC filings,
@BernieSanders
is the ONLY candidate that has ZERO billionaire donors. NONE.
Biden is the new leader with most billionaire donors.
Biden - 60

Remember the massive mushroom cloud of toxicity that resulted from the "controlled burn" of chemicals from the derailed train in East Palestine?
Turns out Norfolk Southern made the decision on their own to do that. Yet CEO Alan Shaw testified in Congress something different.

So far, in every state that has had a primary/caucus, the exit poll shows voters overwhelmingly want

and yet they vote for Biden who will never make it happen.
How is there so much disconnect?
New CA CNN poll,
@BernieSanders
is crushing CA by 21 POINTS! The entire establishment is hyperventilating as Bernie could win nearly every 415 delegates. 😂
Bernie 35%
Warren 14%
Biden 13%
Bloomberg 12%
Buttigieg 7%
Klobuchar 6%
Steyer 3%
Gabbard 1%
One thing I've noticed so far in this 2024 election. Not one candidate from any party nor independents has been able to host a rally that comes even remotely close to drawing in tens of thousands of people like
#Bernie2016
and
#Bernie2020
did. Those were some incredible times.
Holy wow LOOONG!! This is the line to get into the

Gonna guess that tonight's attendance will break the 10K+ Sept rally.😁

There's a reason Bernie has been trending in the US when he wasn't even in the debate.
He was the candidate that gave us hope. That we could actually have a future to believe in.
Neither Biden nor Trump communicate any kind of optimism the way Bernie did.
#NotMeUs
#Debate2020
This poll is an embarrassment.
Sample size = 255 Dem voters. % of landlines not stated. A sampling error of wait for it...6.1%.😬
59% were over 55yo. Only 13% for 18-34yo.
62% with college degree to grad
So, pretty much they polled Buttigieg voters.
This aged badly. More example of why voters have low trust.
Biden the candidate 2020: No more drilling on federal lands. No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill. Period. Ends.
Biden the POTUS 2023:
President Biden officially approved the Willow Project.
Instead of sticking to his own climate goals and listening to the millions of young people who carried the party for the last three election cycles,
@POTUS
is letting the fossil fuel industry have their way.

We already have a POTUS who is a pathological liar. We cannot elect another one. Bernie has a consistent record of truth.
While anti-Bernies were bashing Bernie about Joe Rogan, here's Bernie genuinely worried about millions of Americans keeping their home, electricity and their telephones on. He's fighting for them.
This is actually what matters more...DURING A PANDEMIC.

It appears that Bernie got his unemployment provision into the Senate Bill: 100% of salary for laid-off workers up to 75K/year, and benefits to include tipped and gig workers who are not usually covered.
Astonishing. Another example of how corporate media doesn't take the

John Kerry is talking about the existential threat of the climate crisis. Our planet is at risk. Extremely important topic.

YES! New Emerson IA poll, Sanders SURGE!
Sanders 30% (+8)
Biden 21% (-2)
Klobuchar 13% (+3)
Warren 11% (-1)
Buttigieg 10% (-8)
Steyer 5% (+2)
Yang 5% (+3)

"Sanders is only candidate to hit 30% in any IA Emerson poll during the past year."
Serious question. What has Bidenomics done for poor + working class?
Minimum wage STILL = $7.25
15M vulnerable kicked off Medicaid
30M pushed off hunger cliff with SNAP cuts
In 2023, food prices estimated ⬆️ 6.0%
~100M adults have medical debt
9/1 student loan payments back on
Anyone calling Bernie Sanders a cuck or weak is projecting their own weakness. Anyone can be a critic on social media. It takes real courage to get elected to office and fight the establishment and billionaires on the front line. Bernie has spent his life fighting the good fight.
This is real. I was a 2016 delegate for Bernie. Checked in at hotel. Before I went to my room wanted to get a t-shirt to wear. When I saw this Bernie shirt in the official DNC hotel store, I was shocked and appalled. Their animosity for Bernie on display.
#FirstJewishPresident
Speaking of anti-semitism, this is the ONLY Bernie T-shirt sold at the 2016 Dem Convention, in the official gift shop. I know this wasn't his campaign merch: WHO "designed" this shirt? Who green lit it?
@DNC
@donnabrazile
@TomPerez
Who DENOUNCED it? Anyone?
#FirstJewishPresident
Sadly, not parody. Warren holds a town hall in Austin, TX today with <5K crowd. CNN boasts of her big crowds when Bernie is in Denver, CO yesterday with a YUGE 10K+ crowd.

The Des Moines Register has endorsed Warren - a candidate in today's NYT poll who is polling 4th in Iowa having dropped a large 7 pts.

Bernie's Rogan interview which now has 3.5M views in about 16+ hours has now surpassed Yang's Rogan interview 3.4M views from 5 months ago.
And it's now already in the top 50 of Rogan's ALL TIME most popular episodes. 🙌
Also, the comments are nearing a whopping 86K! 😲🙌
Agree. It's amazing how FOX is more fair to

in their

than CNN and MSNBC are to him.
And to their credit, FOX held this town hall on a college campus and all the questions were asked by young people. No gotcha questions from establishment plants.

This is St Francis of Assisi. His birth name is Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone. 👀
He's the patron saint of animals and environment. He was a peace activist and cared for the poor.
Oct 4 is The Feast of St Francis of Assisi. That's the day Bernie got out of the hospital.
This image of Bernie Sanders in Iowa reminded me of early Renaissance painting -- typically images of a Saint (old bald guy with birds flying to his sermon).
So endorsements DO matter. So far,
@BernieSanders
with
@AOC
:
🔹Queens rally 26K - largest of entire 2020 race
🔹Council Bluffs 2.4K - largest in IA
Telling you now when Bernie + AOC do their first rallies here in CA, we'll pass the Queens record. ✊
Every time I see this photo now, I think how the universe timed it perfectly for America to have a POTUS who himself was a protestor that got arrested in his youth fighting for racial justice similar to the mass numbers of young people protesting in present time. I keep smh.
It's inspiring and heart-expanding to see these videos popping up all over the country of people marching to the polls to cast their vote for
@BernieSanders

You're seeing the movement in action, and it's growing! ✊
Some good clarity from a doctor regarding Bernie, the stents and artery blockage. It was NOT open heart surgery.
Recovery is typically 7-10 days which means Bernie will be good to go for the October 15 debate.
#GetWellBernie
Important context on the
@BernieSanders
health situation from
@drsanjaygupta
. He makes it clear that Sanders did NOT have open heart surgery. The lack of an intense operation means the recovery could be much quicker. Gupta explains the reality of the recovery time here:
You can almost see the circuits in Anderson's brain start computing, "oh shi*t Bernie's really gonna win," as Bernie lists Biden's awful record that'll certainly not get working class or young people excited.
This is a good list to share with those Undecided but leaning Biden.
Biden can no longer say
#MedicareForAll
is too expensive. The Fed is showing us right now that 10 years of M4A could be paid for in 30 days if we wanted.
