Bernie Sanders Says Michigan Senate Race Is a Watershed Moment as AIPAC Influence Faces Scrutiny
August 4, 2026
Senator Bernie Sanders breaks down why the political establishment and billionaire donors are sweating over the Michigan Senate primary between Abdul El-Sayed and Haley Stevens.
Over $60 million in super PAC money is pouring into the state to stop El-Sayed. Bernie poses a simple question: Why spend $60M on a single primary?
Billionaires and corporate super PACs flooding the airwaves to crush a grassroots campaign.
If Abdul wins, it proves candidates don’t need billionaire approval or AIPAC/corporate super PAC cash to win big races.
The establishment is terrified of showing working people that oligarchs can actually be beaten at the ballot box.
When the ultra-wealthy dump $60 million into a local primary, it tells you everything you need to know about who they’re afraid of.
