We need an anti-war movement more than ever. Through his insistence on the need to build grassroots power from the bottom up and his consistent anti-war record, Bernie Sanders can help give us the tools to build one.
In 1981, Bernie Sanders achieved the unthinkable — dethroning a deeply entrenched city establishment in Burlington, Vermont, with an upset victory in the city’s mayoral race that no one saw coming. His methods were familiar: a populist, working-class message, door-to-door grassroots organization, and a dogged refusal to bow to elite pressure.
The Culinary Workers Union of Las Vegas has fought bosses for better working conditions, wages, and benefits for decades. But now its leadership is launching a backhanded effort to discredit Bernie Sanders and the very idea of Medicare for All.

Pete Buttigieg has always been a calculating careerist. By ending his campaign yesterday, he may have sacrificed his short-term presidential ambitions — but he did so for the greater good of a Democratic Party establishment that is hell-bent on sabotaging Bernie Sanders.
