Bernie Sanders is not known for pandering to distinct audiences, or on going back on what his word behind closed doors.

It turns out there was a Wall Street speech given by Bernie Sanders that was not reported by the media at all. Only the transcripts will tell us in whose pocket the Vermont Senator is.

Here is a video of a speech given by Bernie Sanders December 10, 2010 to Wall Street and the political establishment, on the 2010 Obama budget deal in which the poor, working and minority families are left out while the billionaires get tax breaks of all sorts.

The filibuster was historic, and he took on the Obama administration when no other progressive had the guts to.

The transcript is available at the link.

While you watch/read, remind yourself why in the world Hillary hasn’t released the transcripts to HER speeches.
