Bernie Sanders: The Millionaire Who Hates Millionaires

At 42:25 · chapter starts 35:20

Bernie Sanders appears on screen celebrating the progressive sweep of three New York congressional seats and calling for war on the 'billionaire class.' Bongino runs a Grok AI search live and pulls up Sanders's estimated net worth: $2–3 million. He then pivots to the New York City governance record, noting the city has been run by Democrats for over a decade — confirmed by another Grok search showing the last two mayors, Eric Adams and Bill de Blasio, are both Democrats — which makes Sanders's 'fight the status quo' framing nonsensical. Bongino caps the segment with his most visceral attack of the episode, calling Sanders a lifelong bum who has never added value to society and whose real danger lies in exporting his philosophy to a national movement.

Bernie Sanders just declared war on the billionaire class and cheered New York's progressive congressional wins. His estimated net worth? $2–3 million. Bongino calls him the most dangerous man in America — not despite his hypocrisy, but because of how effectively he exports it.
