Patriots are pushing back against lying Democrats and they can’t take it.
During a heated exchange on The Joe Rogan Experience, longtime Democrat Senator Bernie Sanders attempted to criticize entrepreneur Elon Musk for backing President Donald Trump. But the moment backfired—badly.
Sanders, I-Vt., argued that campaign contributions from billionaires like Musk were “absurd,” referencing reports that Musk had contributed over $270 million toward President Trump’s re-election efforts. The discussion came during a segment focused on the Citizens United Supreme Court ruling, which protects political donations under the First Amendment.
But Rogan wasn’t buying the one-sided narrative.
Instead, the popular podcast host flipped the conversation, asking Sanders how much was spent on Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed campaign.
Sanders evaded specifics, but Rogan didn’t miss a beat.
“They spent $1.5 billion just in a few months,” Rogan said.
That figure, while shocking, is accurate. The Harris campaign raised over a billion dollars in just 15 weeks and still ended up $20 million in debt before withdrawing from the race.

Musk Backed Trump After Assassination Attempt
Following the near-tragic assassination attempt at President Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Elon Musk made his support official. He endorsed Trump publicly and put his resources behind America PAC, a Super PAC formed to support Trump’s re-election.
Reports say Musk invested $240 million into America PAC and offered $1 million checks to rally attendees who signed Trump-aligned petitions. His support wasn’t just symbolic—it was strategic and impactful.
The Creation of DOGE: Draining the Swamp
When President Trump returned to office, Musk was tapped to lead DOGE—a new federal agency tasked with eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse.
DOGE made immediate headlines by shuttering programs like USAID, known for spending billions overseas while domestic needs are ignored. For many American taxpayers, it was a refreshing sign of real government accountability.
Sanders, however, called Musk the “most powerful person in government.” Critics of Sanders say this is just another example of the Left attacking success while ignoring their own donors.
Even Sanders Admits the Left Plays the Same Game
In an unusual moment of candor, Sanders confessed:
“It wasn’t just Musk and the Republicans… Democratic billionaires were putting money into Kamala and other candidates as well.”
That rare admission exposes what many Americans already know—big money in politics isn’t a one-sided issue.
Final Thoughts: Americans Deserve Transparency—Not Political Games
This viral exchange shows exactly why voters are tired of the double standards. Elon Musk is being vilified for supporting a candidate who stands for lower taxes, secure borders, and less government waste—while Democrats like Harris burn through billions with nothing to show for it.
Joe Rogan did what legacy media won’t: he held Sanders accountable. And Americans are paying attention.
