Senator Bernie Sanders has announced a national tour to combat the growing influence of oligarchs, citing Elon Musk’s role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and access to sensitive Treasury data as a prime example. Sanders criticizes the unchecked power and wealth accumulation of billionaires like Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos, arguing their influence dominates politics, media, and the economy. The tour, beginning February 21st, will focus on working-class districts Biden won in 2020 but flipped Republican in 2024, aiming to galvanize support against this perceived oligarchical control. Sanders frames this as a fight for working families against a system rigged in favor of the wealthy few.

Milei later deleted his promotional post, claiming unawareness of the project’s details.

This decision smacks of unilateralism, a worrying trend in US foreign policy that risks alienating long-standing allies and undermining the very foundations of collective security.… Continue reading

Bernie Sanders has launched a highly visible campaign against what he terms “the oligarchy,” and his approach is generating considerable discussion. This isn’t simply another political maneuver; it represents a significant effort to reframe the political debate and connect with voters on a deeper level. His strategy is built on a foundation of highlighting the undue influence of wealthy elites on American society and government.
The current political climate is characterized by a deep disconnect between the average voter and the established political players. Many feel unheard and powerless in the face of what they perceive as a rigged system. Sanders is capitalizing on this sentiment, framing the battle not just as a fight for policy changes, but as a struggle for the very soul of democracy itself.… Continue reading

Newly confirmed HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s 100-day plan prioritizes investigating the root causes of various chronic diseases, notably focusing on the purported overprescription of SSRIs. This initiative, however, ignores substantial scientific evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of SSRIs while promoting unsubstantiated claims linking them to school shootings and addiction. Kennedy proposes addressing this perceived issue through the establishment of “wellness farms” for drug rehabilitation, a solution lacking scientific basis and potentially harmful due to its promotion of misinformation. His appointment has faced significant opposition from medical professionals concerned about the spread of his scientifically inaccurate claims.
