Go Bernie! Educate America. No One Else Is!

"Tell Them Bernie!"

While the Democratic Party is sitting on their thumbs or wringing their hands, whichever is more appropriate, Bernie Sanders is out in small towns communities talking to people who want to know what is going on in Washington.

He is on the news and he is making news!

He is trying to educate your neighbors about oligarchs and autocrats; what they are and what they mean to everyone. Oligarchs have been around for a long time. But not in America. Oh. They have been here, but everyone thought that oligarchy was a Russian thing. It was until Trump gave his tacit approval to oligarchs being in the United States. 

In Trumps own words "I know some Russian oligarchs that are very nice people." 

Now they can apply for a fast track to U.S. citizenship with not a green card, but a gold card for a mere 5 million bucks. This is of course nothing for billionaires.

Why does an 83 year old man need to be leading the groundswell of anger and dissatisfaction from the American people? Because no one in the Democratic Party has the guts to stand up and  face the thugs that are trying to take over one of the last true democratic governments in the world.

Elon Musk’s “DOGE” is an afront to our system of government that has worked pretty damned good. Now one man? One man can say no it’s a mess! Really? Because you are a billionaire who makes most his billions living on the dime? Take away all of your government contracts and what? What?

Wait a minute. Maybe that’s why you want to control the contracts and treasury?

As Bernie has been trying to tell people this is what ruling classes have tried to do throughout history. More power, more control, and more wealth. And as their wealth and power grows, democracy and your rights disappear.

You were told what an autocracy would look like. Now you are seeing it.

One man can control the investment markets. Trump is doing it now. What has happened to the S&P 500 in just one week? Because of his wild and bizarre decisions on tariffs and promises to retaliate on everything to anything, he comes off as nothing more than a petulant spoiled child who can’t have ice cream before dinner.

Trump and Musk deserve each other. But not on this planet or in this country. If they want to rule as autocrats, then they should book seats on one of Musk’s space ships and go to Mars.

Washington is not big enough for both of their egos.

If Trump is allowed to proceed with his 5 million dollar gold card for wealthy foreigners, our country will be full of criminals who by any other means would not have full legal status to come into our country and invest in who knows what? Trump and Musk are both grifters and obfuscate everything they say to hide their intentions.

How can we ever forget Trump and Musk on the front lawn of the white house while Trump was hustling Musk’s cars? This after Tesla stock took a whipping And people are dumping Tesla’s.

Or when Trump was asked if he was concerned that the markets were losing badly. His reply was “No I’m not concerned. Somebody is going to make a lot of money by buying stocks cheap.” Really? Who would that be? Your family? Were you selling short?

People forget that Trumps portfolios are not in a blind trust. His family has control of it.

In my opinion the only thing that has been going on with all of this is market manipulation at the expense of ordinary people who have their life invested in the markets. Trump could care less what that family has lost and does not have the money to buy back cheap as he says.

But I promise you his friends can.

For the uneducated, that is oligarchy.

Educate them Bernie, no one else is! It's crickets from the Democrats!
