He’s the leftwing outsider who nearly became the Democrats’ candidate for president - twice. As his position on the Israel-Gaza war threatens to upset his support, the veteran senator says he’s tired but determined to fight the return of that ‘ bitter, humiliated man’
Hey Bernie - the MOTs still have your back. If you put on the parka and ask for more money, I’m good for a couple hundred. I’ve got Bernie tee shirts, Bernie posters, Bernie getting arrested, Bernie sticking up for the LGBT…
And, my hand to the god that I do not believe in, if and when I adopt a sphynx cat, he or she will be named Bernie.
It’s not really worth it to donate to a political campaign anymore. The Kochs and Soroses of the world have virtually unlimited means to drown out your voice.

I’ve never duty money to a politician before, but I would start for him, only if he ran independent though
