Bernie Sanders rallies thousands across Pennsylvania on 'Fighting Oligarchy' tour

Senator Bernie Sanders is touring Pennsylvania as part of his 'Fighting Oligarchy Tour,' drawing large crowds to rallies in cities like Harrisburg and Bethlehem. The events focus on resisting oligarchic influence, opposing the Trump administration, and advocating for economic and political reforms, including campaign finance reform and protecting social programs like Social Security and veterans' care. Sanders has emphasized the dangers of billionaires influencing politics, specifically criticizing figures such as Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk for their investments in the Trump administration. U.S. Rep. Chris Deluzio, rather than Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, joined Sanders at recent Pennsylvania stops, echoing concerns about corporate influence and calling for a government that works for everyone. Attendees cited concerns about economic opportunity, executive overreach, and political corruption as reasons for supporting Sanders' message. The tour's goal is to mobilize resistance against what Sanders calls oligarchic and authoritarian tendencies in American politics.
