Sanders, AOC Draw Record Crowd at LA Rally, Fueling Progressive Momentum
Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez held a massive rally in Los Angeles, attracting an estimated 36,000 attendees—the largest of Sanders’ career, surpassing even his previous record-breaking Denver rally. The event, part of their “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, featured fellow progressive lawmakers and musical guests, directly confronting the political stances of President Trump and Elon Musk. Sanders’ communications director confirmed the attendance figures on X, while the rally’s significance lies in its demonstration of continued progressive support amidst low Democratic approval ratings. The rally also served as a platform to criticize the current administration’s policies.
