I've figured out a plan. Every time I see this ad of Bernie's . . .

I am asking once again for your financial support. The Democratic establishment, their super PACs, and their billionaire donors are lining up and spending big to blunt our momentum. Now, I may not be a billionaire. We may not have a super PAC. But I know we can win because we have a historic movement of millions of people that is far more powerful than big checks from a few rich folks. So please, if you can afford it, send a donation right now.



Every time I see it, I'm going to donate something to Joe. That will help ensure Joe isn't only getting money from millionayehs and billionayehs.

But maybe Bernie should do something about Our Revolution, the non super PAC that has raised millions in dark money for him over the years.

Nice plan. I have a feeling Sanders will have to answer for "Our Revolution" soon. Maru Kitteh Mar 2020 #1
I do find it amusing that he dropped the "millionaires" part and he's very specific... TwilightZone Mar 2020 #2

that it's "Super PACs" and not just PACs in general.

Doesn't make "Our Revolution" any less of a dark money group, something that he claims to abhor.
