Oligarchs rule Russia and America

Left-wing politician Bernie Sanders has lost the Democratic presidential nomination in the last two US presidential elections. But the Wall Street Journal recently reported that Sanders still has a large influence on Joe Biden’s policies.

In an interview with The Guardian, Sanders confirms that he occasionally meets with Biden at the White House, but also says that Biden is “much more conservative” than he is.

Russian oligarchs.
