Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., pushed $200,000 to the Sanders Institute, a nonprofit founded by his wife and stepson that appears to do minimal work.
FOX Business' Larry Kudlow tells ‘America Reports’ that the only major legislation pieces ‘on the table’ are the debt ceiling and budget reform. quietly funneled $200,000 from his campaign's coffers to his wife's nonprofit institute, which appears to do very little work and pays six figures' worth of compensation to her son, Fox News Digital has found.
"The purpose is to revitalize democracy in the support of progressive institutions," Jane Sanders told the Post."Our feeling is at our point in time, our country is at a crossroads, and people are engaged in a political process that can be opaque.""A vital democracy requires an informed electorate, civil discourse, and bold thinking," she continued.
The Sanders Institute, which Sen. Sanders' wife Jane co-founded, appears to perform very little work. Its YouTube page has uploaded just two videos this year, both of which are quick messages from their fellows, including Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash. Its profile on X, formerly Twitter, also mainly appears to push outside news articles and opinion pieces from its fellows. at the time of its launch, her institute has failed to do so — at least monetarily. The nonprofit reported no grants to other liberal groups in its tax records from 2021.
