Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries.
If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that?
The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.

Last week, Elon Musk appeared alongside Trump in the Oval to defend the work of DOGE.
Looking directly at Musk, Trump asked; “Could you mention some of the things *your team* has found?”
Tonight, the government claimed that Musk isn’t in charge of DOGE & isn’t a DOGE employee.
