Bernie Sanders Is the Oligarch He Keeps Warning You About

Bernie Sanders can't stop warning you about "the oligarchs." So I looked up the word and it describes him better than the billionaires he's attacking.

In this episode, I break down what an oligarch actually is: a small elite group where wealth and power converge, that controls state assets and uses political capital to bend outcomes its way. Then I hold that definition up against Bernie himself. He's one of the most powerful members of Congress and a textbook socialist who can't stop calling everyone else an oligarch.
