AOC And Bernie Sanders Team Up

Progressive Politicians Push Big Government Agenda

Far-left politicians Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) took aim at Elon Musk in their latest public rally, blaming him and other wealthy Americans for what they claim is a growing economic divide.

Their Las Vegas event on Thursday was part of Sanders’ nationwide “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, where they called for higher taxes, more government control, and expanded welfare programs. Nevada Rep. Steven Horsford (D) also joined the event.

AOC’s Attack on Musk: “Destroying the Public Good”

Ocasio-Cortez accused billionaires like Musk of seeking to dismantle Social Security and Medicaid to benefit the wealthy.

“An extreme concentration of power and corruption is taking over this country like never before,” she said, rallying the crowd.

She warned that an “oligarchy” is taking over, claiming that tech moguls and corporate leaders are profiting at the expense of everyday Americans.

📢 But here’s what they won’t tell you:

• The U.S. already has one of the most progressive tax systems in the world—where the top 1% pay nearly 40% of all federal taxes.
• Musk has long advocated for reducing government waste and promoting economic growth through innovation.
• Bigger government means higher inflation—and hardworking Americans are paying the price at the gas pump and grocery store.

Musk: Cutting Waste & Fighting Government Corruption

Musk, a vocal advocate for government accountability, has consistently pushed back against inefficiency and fraud in federal programs.

He has raised concerns about the long-term stability of Social Security, famously calling it “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.”

Meanwhile, President Trump has vowed to protect Social Security and Medicare, countering the left’s fearmongering.

📊 The Reality:

✅ Social Security is at risk—not because of billionaires, but due to government mismanagement.
✅ Musk has focused on creating jobs and innovation—not slashing public programs.
✅ Democrats are using scare tactics to push an agenda of higher taxes and more regulations.

🚨 House Republicans recently proposed budget cuts aimed at reducing excessive spending—but that hasn’t stopped AOC and Sanders from fueling panic.

Sanders’ Socialist Rhetoric: “Greedy Oligarchs” & Class Warfare

Sanders took his usual “class warfare” approach, painting a picture of two Americas—one for the rich and one for everyone else.

“They are like heroin addicts. They need more and more and more. And if they destroy Social Security and Medicaid to get what they want, that is what they will do,” he claimed.

💰 But what’s the truth?

• The top 10% of earners already pay over 70% of federal income taxes.
• Big government policies have led to record-high inflation and rising national debt.
• Despite the claims of economic inequality, millions of Americans have benefited from capitalism and job creation.

Sanders also attacked Trump’s efforts to reform the Department of Education, arguing that it could impact student aid programs. However, many conservatives believe the bloated education bureaucracy needs accountability and reform.

What’s Next? The Fight for America’s Future

Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders are set to continue their tour in Arizona and Colorado, rallying for their big-government policies. But the American people have a choice:

🔵 More government, higher taxes, and reckless spending
🔴 Fiscal responsibility, economic freedom, and lower inflation

What do you think? Should we trust socialist politicians with America’s future—or is it time to stand up for common sense economic policies?
