Faiz Shakir: There can be more taxes on the rich. We have a society that has worked extraordinarily well for wealthy people and not so great for the bottom 60%. The billionaire class has hated Mamdani - Trump's instincts are better, he knows Zohran is looking out for working people.

President Piggy This is what consequence-free misogyny looks like.

On Pod Save America, Faiz Shakir described America as being in a state of moral decay. When the President calls one reporter "Piggy" and his press secretary answers, "Your Mom," to another reporter, you know we're there.

New signups to Bernie's list from the Fight Oligarchy tour: 68% are Democrats, 20% no party preference, 9% Republican - @faiz.bsky.social

🔥 future Senator of Maine @grahamformaine.bsky.social Platner rallying with Bernie…

@faiz.bsky.social: "There’s too many in the Democratic Party who like to criticize Bernie or be in friction with him. Far fewer have seen the political power of embracing him. AOC always has"

We spoke with More Perfect Union founder and Bernie advisor Faiz Shakir With punchy videos about corporate malfeasance, unaccountable billionaires and tech companies that act with impunity, this company has carved out a niche doing what mainstream media won't

"The impact for me right now is documenting the struggle for local communities over oligarchy. These economic justice issues actually are gaining sway with conservatives"

'We Make, They Take': Kudos to @moreperfectunion.bsky.social for its new billboard campaign. Says Faiz Shakir: “We're calling out a simple truth: Working people keep this country running, but corporations keep taking more and more.” @faiz.bsky.social perfectunion.us www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

Great team accomplishment

We won an Emmy tonight thanks to the incredible work of @moreperfectunion.bsky.social

Appreciate the recognition. We will continue to do our part to fight for Anerica's working class.

Watch: Bernie Sanders reacts to Trump's Iran strikes in real time at 'Fighting Oligarchy' rally Bernie Sanders reacts to President Trump's Iran strikes during 'Fighting Oligarchy' rally, as crowd chants 'No more wars' while the senator argues only Congress has power to declare war.

Amazing to watch the anti-war movement erupt in real-time in Oklahoma www.foxnews.com/politics/wat...

Fighting Oligarchy appeals in very red states.

Thanks to @maddow.msnbc.com and team for the shout-out for @moreperfectunion.bsky.social billboards to save national parks and public lands

This is the best conversation I’ve heard in so long. @faiz.bsky.social is so smart. The pyramid is a great reframe AND his example of a candidate getting any voter USA to agree with them by addressing exploitation of working class = 👏👏👏

Arizona billboards call out federal cuts to Saguaro National Park The group More Perfect Union installed more than 300 signs across the country, calling out the Department of Government Efficiency for federal cuts to the National Park Service.

"It doesn't matter if you're really wealthy. It doesn't matter if you're middle class. It doesn't matter if you're living in poverty, you generally should be able to go to a National Park and have the same experience…" @faiz.bsky.social

A good discussion.

We have hired a handful of local organizers on the ground in four states.

There's much more to come soon. We're only getting started with our organizing and candidate recruitment plans. Stay tuned. /6

We followed up with the lists to ask they: 1) contact their rep and seek a townhall meeting, 2) ask their rep to say no to Medicaid cuts and tax cuts for the rich.

Also engaging lists on current state legislative fights around collective bargaining, repro rights and other issues. /5

13 of the 16 stops have been in Republican-held congressional districts.

254,931 people have come out across eleven states we have visited so far. /4

We have given speaking slots at rallies to:
8 members of Congress
6 national Union presidents
15 local Union leaders
7 current candidates for office (and plenty more who are thinking about it) /3

32% of attendees are NOT registered Democrats and more than 7% of attendees ARE registered Republicans.

42% of attendees are not college graduates -- a group Democrats have been increasingly losing ground with. /2

NEW: Here's a thread of some stuff you didn't know about Bernie's Fight Oligarchy tour...but you should. 16 stops in, here's what I'll share:

66.8 percent of the signups we have received are NEW to the Bernie list. 🧵 /1

Faiz Shakir: If you look at the stats in California, in the Central Valley, there are a couple thousand people who are working at Tesla, owned by the richest person in the world on Medicaid. And these are the people who they want to cut health care from.
