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.
What movements? As an outsider watching the US, are there any notable workers’ movements over there at the moment?
Refusing to support warhawk neoliberals like Biden and Harris seems to be a hell of a movement.
I mean, sure, but what else? I wouldn’t call ‘not voting for a candidate you don’t like’ a movement
