A large crowd gathered in Omaha, Nebraska, for the first stop of Senator Bernie Sanders’ nationwide tour with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on their “fighting oligarchy” campaign. This tour comes amidst tensions within the Democratic party following a vote by Sen. Chuck Schumer and others to support a Republican spending bill to avert a government shutdown. The progressive lawmakers are mobilizing voters to stand up against President Trump, his administration’s policies, and the increasing influence of billionaire Elon Musk.
Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that over 34,000 people attended the rally in Denver, Colorado, showing that working people are ready to fight for democracy. Sanders also noted the large turnout at the rally, with hundreds of rallies under his belt, and believes that the American people will not allow Trump to lead the country into oligarchy and authoritarianism. During the rally, both politicians criticized Trump and Musk’s efforts to cut government spending and emphasized the importance of supporting working-class Americans.
Sanders expressed that the nation was built by working people and that they will not let a few billionaires control the government. Ocasio-Cortez also called on Democrats to fight harder for the American people. The rally in Omaha was a powerful display of support for the progressive message of standing up against the wealthy elite and advocating for the working class.
