Bret Baier Challenges Sen. Bernie Sanders On Using Private Jets For "Fighting Oligarchy" Tour: "No Apologies"
Real Clear Politics ^ | 5/7/25 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 05/08/2025 8:07:24 AM PDT by DallasBiff

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) told FOX News host Bret Baier on "Special Report" that he has no apologies for using private airplanes to travel to his "Fighting Oligarchy Tour" rallies.

BRET BAIER, FOX NEWS: Alright, last thing. You know, Elissa Slotkin, Senator from Michigan, she said you shouldn't be using oligarch, it's over people's head. You've gotten criticized from other people.

Free Beacon says Bernie Sanders spent $221,000 on private jets fighting the oligarchy tour, paid for by friends of Bernie Sanders. That you've spent millions of dollars in campaign funds on private jet travel over the years. How do you push back on both of those things?

SEN. BERNIE SANDERS: When's the last time you saw Donald Trump during a campaign mode at National Airport?

BAIER: No, no, no. It doesn't. But he's also not fighting the oligarchy.

The narcissistic, self gratifying, amoral Left never apologizes for its actions however evil, hypocritical and destructive they may be. People like Sanders, AOC and most Democrats can never be trusted by decent, honest people.

Bernie the oligarch is not the bad guy here. Neither are all the democrats’ oligarchs, who are more numerous then republican oligarchs. It’s only republican oligarchs who are evil and greedy, because, they’re not democrats or socialists.

He tries to obfuscate with Trump? How much of his ow money Did Trump spend traveling in his personal plane? Sanders is your typical communist, living high on the backs of the workers while pissing on their backs and telling them itโ€™s rain. What has Sanders ever created other than a bigger personal bank account?

Did Bernie ever run a lemonade stand and made a few cents in profit?

What a lame excuse that a commercia flight would cause people to wait for them to show up.

I guess they were too lazy to arrange their calendar so they could coordinate their travel schedules like the little people do every day when preparing for a trip.

It’s not like these were spur of the moment events that they needed to drop everything and be there within a few hours.

I’m also wondering if AOC is giving him some extra attention on the plane, like a good little commie groupie should.

Bernie has three houses.
One in Burlington, VT he has had for a long time.
It is a pretty standard house. 2400 sq ft , 3-4 bd rm, 2 car garage.

He has a town house in the Georgetown section of DC. Again, he has had this awhile. It is probably worth the most of the three houses just because of its location.

He has a lake house on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain.
It is an okay house. Nothing really big. This is the house he bought when he dropped out of the Dem Primary to let Hillary win. So, Hillary/the Dem Party bought him a Lake house to support the Hillsters

Fighting the Oligarchy and standing up for the poor is Sanders’ brand. It is not his personal belief. Politicians like him who advocate for a cause often believe themselves to be exempt from the consequences of their cause because of their advocacy.

Notre Dame University are the Irish who fight. Similarly, Bernie and AOC’s Fighting Oligarchy are the oligarchs who fight.

Lazy Commie Bernie, never worked a day in his life. Of course he is going to fly around on chartered jets.

Him?

Fly commercial?

With all the unwashed deplorables?

Him?

No way, he's an oligarch Communist.

Oligarch Communists don't fly commercial.

Think I'm going to be sitting on a waiting line at United, waiting, you know, while 30,000 people are waiting? That's the only way you can get around. No apologies for that.

Bernie was happily paid off to lose California to Hillary. Wife was paid off at the College. Seth Rich lost his life because he cared more than Bernie and wife.

Meanwhile Bernie relaxes at his Lake House and pontificates.
