Bernie Sanders demands Democrats ban super PACs from primaries, blasts AIPAC, ‘corrupt system’

Michigan GOP U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers argues Democrats have harmed Michigan's economy, leading to job losses and higher living cost, on ‘The Big Weekend Show.’ Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., is urging Democratic leaders to restrict super PAC involvement in party primaries, arguing that wealthy outside groups have too much influence over Democratic nominations. In a post on X on Sunday, Sanders singled out the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, while criticizing outside spending in Democratic primaries. "It is insane that the Democrats allow super PACs like AIPAC to spend millions in their primaries — only for those same special interests to help elect Republicans in the general election," Sanders wrote. "My message to Democratic leaders: Ban super PACs from Democratic primaries NOW." Sanders also shared an Aug. 8 letter address
