30. Hey, Bernie Basher
Sat May 2, 2026, 12:08 PM
Saturday
I alone put the contribution link in the excerpted email.

Bernie gets zero money outside of slobs like us.

And while party "leaders" have been absent this entire recent debacle, "old man" Bernie has been crusading cross country like a 24 year old basketball player for slobs like us.

WAIT! The USSC dropped a nuclear bomb on the party leaders and woke them up.

Entirely predictable, too.

I can delete the contribution links if they offend you. "Evil" Bernie was 1000% supporting President Biden. And Biden's chief basher in the primaries was you know who. Shit happens in primaries. I voted for Bernie in that primary because I thought he had a better chance to defeat Trump than Biden, and I am eternally grateful that I was wrong.

Dang.
