Claire Valdez is a union organizer who worked minimum-wage fast food jobs and understands firsthand how this economy fails working people. In my view, Congress needs more voices like Claire, who come from America's working class.

Three things made me a democratic socialist: low-wage jobs, the labor movement, and the campaigns of @BernieSanders. His political revolution changed my life — and showed millions of Americans what's possible when working people organize. I am so grateful for his support.

A recent poll shows over 70% of both white & blue collar workers think AI will lead to fewer jobs. Why isn’t Congress acting? The AI industry & the billionaires who own it will spend unlimited sums to defeat any candidate who takes them on. Yes. We must end Citizens United.

At a time when billionaires are getting richer while working families can't make ends meet, we don't need more politicians who will sell out workers' rights. We need fighters like @bpforcongress who will stand up to corporate greed and never back down.

Congratulations to the approximately 8 million people who came out to No Kings rallies this weekend — the largest single-day political protest in American history. The American people are saying loudly and clearly: no to authoritarianism, no to oligarchy and no to endless war.

Ok, Jamie: Let me clear things up for you. If my 5% wealth tax on billionaires was enacted you’d owe $135 million more in taxes & a family of 4 making $150,000 or less would receive a $12,000 payment. Oh, and you’d still be worth more than $2.5 billion. Seems pretty fair to me.

Kilmeade: What do you say to people like Bernie Sanders who says billionaires don't pay their fair share? Dimon: I don't know what he means by fair share

Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive, recently paid an effective tax rate of less than 3.3%. That is less than the average truck driver, nurse and teacher. YES, we must demand the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Tomorrow, millions of Americans will be joining No Kings rallies. We will be saying NO to authoritarianism. NO to oligarchy. NO to endless wars. NO to the continued attacks against the working class. I look forward to seeing you in St. Paul, MN.

NEW YORK CITY: I will be joining a rally on Sunday to demand that, at a time of record income and wealth inequality, corporations and the wealthiest people in this country start paying their fair share in taxes. I hope you'll join us. dsa.nyc/BernieTTR

Health care? "You're on your own." Housing? "Nothing we can do." Grocery prices? "You're out of luck." $200 billion for another war? "No problem!" Americans—Democrats, Republicans, independents—are SICK AND TIRED of endless wars. We need to invest here at home.

Brian Poindexter is an ironworker who has spent his life fighting for working people. We need fighters like Brian who will stand up to corporate greed and never back down. I'm proud to endorse Brian Poindexter for Congress.
Brian Poindexter for Congress@bpforcongress

Proud today to announce our campaign's endorsement by Senator @BernieSanders! Senator Sanders has spent his entire career fighting for the working class, and his endorsement means the world to me and to this campaign. I grew up in a working family. I know what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck, and I know that the people in Ohio’s 7th District are tired of being an afterthought in Washington. Senator Sanders understands that — and together, we’re going to fight for an economy that works for all Ohioans.

This is what oligarchy looks like. 50 billionaires have spent $433 million to buy the elections in November. 80% is going to candidates who supported a $1 trillion tax break for the top 1% & a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid & the Affordable Care Act. We must end Citizens United.

We are rapidly creating technology that could surpass human intelligence, with enormous risks to jobs, society and humanity itself. AI must work for all of us, not just a handful of billionaires. That’s why I’m introducing a moratorium on new AI data centers.

72,000 killed in the genocide in Gaza. 1 million+ displaced in Lebanon. 1,700 settler attacks in the West Bank. And now war in Iran. Sending 20,000+ more bombs to Netanyahu isn’t just immoral—it’s illegal. That’s why I introduced legislation to stop it.

Trump’s authoritarianism. War in Iran. A corrupt campaign system owned by billionaires. Attacks on voting rights. And an AI revolution with no guardrails. We are living in dangerous times. Here's how we go forward.

Jeff Bezos, worth $234 billion, plans to replace 600,000 Amazon workers with robots. Now, he wants to spend $100 billion to fully automate not just his warehouses, but factories in the U.S & other countries. Oligarchs are waging all out war against workers. FIGHT BACK.
