Bernie Bets on AOC 2028: Oligarchy’s Next Boss Lady

Senator Bernie Sanders gave Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez his presidential thumbs-up for 2028, calling her 'a very, very good politician' with a gift for chatting on the streets, apparently winning over crowds in red states like Montana on their 'Fighting Oligarchy' tour. Bernie’s basically giving a TED Talk on AOC’s working-class charm, reminding us she knows poverty ‘like a BFF.’ He also name-dropped a Congressional Avengers team—Greg Casar, Pramila Jayapal, Ilhan Omar, Maxwell Frost — because apparently the progressive Mafia is assembling and ready to raid the political casino. Besides AOC, Bernie hints there are 'dozens' more lefties ready to gun for the Big Chair. Here’s to 2028 looking like a Marvel crossover event, but with more socialism and fewer explosions.
