Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont announced Monday he will run for reelection this year, squelching speculation that the 82-year-old progressive icon might retire at a time when the Democratic Party is anxious about the advancing age of its top leaders.
Hailing from a Democratic stronghold, Sanders’ decision virtually guarantees that he will return to Washington for a fourth Senate term. And his announcement comes at a critical moment for Democrats as the party navigates a growing divide over Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
Sanders has criticized President Joe Biden’s handling of the U.S. relationship with Israel even as he’s hailed much of Biden’s domestic agenda ahead of what could be a tough reelection fight for Biden against presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Jesus with all these ever shifting labels
If you’ve never bothered to learn anything about political science, there’s no need to be proud of it. Just read a little and educate yourself
Elitist white college kid attitude right there. For a bunch of people claiming to be left and progressive, some of you do everything possible up push people away with your elitist, nose in the air, white patriarchal bullshit.
I got a 2 year degree from a community college and then went to technical school. Im a blue collar hourly worker. None of my formal education (which ended nearly 20 years ago) included political science.
I educated myself so i wouldn’t sound ignorant talking about things i am interested in. It’s not hard. Libraries are free and the internet is full of information
Or five minutes on Google and Wikipedia

Ok…??
So you’re being a hypocrite given what you’re criticizing and what this site is
Just because you’re learning of the existence of these terms now doesn’t mean they just came into existence today.
I said shifting. As in they’ve changed meaning over time.
