This man has been against CAPITALISM as long as I can remember and is he using the system, again, to rig the system in his favor?

Famous Dem Busted W/ Hundreds Of Thousands Of STOLEN Dollars
The recent report that Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, a self-proclaimed Democratic-Socialist, has moved $200,000 from his campaign into the non-profit institute that employs both his wife and son is an eyebrow-raising move with potentially concerning implications.
Sanders frequently speaks out in favor of fairness and equality within the capitalist system, yet it appears that he’s doing quite well for himself financially in the process.
Questions arise surrounding the true purpose of this non-profit organization as to what exactly it does – if anything at all.
Some have suggested that this could be a way for Sanders to funnel money away from public scrutiny in order to benefit himself personally or his family members without being held accountable for it later on down the road.
Overall, Bernie Sander’s decision to transfer $200,000 from his campaign funds into an unknown non-profit institute run by his family members raises serious ethical issues which cannot go unanswered without further investigation.
If Bernie truly believes in equality and fairness within our society then he should also apply those same values to himself, otherwise he will inevitably lose credibility amongst his supporters and colleagues alike.
From FOX News:
Bernie Sanders funneled $200K in campaign cash to wife and stepson’s nonprofit institute, records reveal
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders 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 independent senator’s committee cut two $100,000 checks to the Sanders Institute for reported charitable contributions in January and March, its Federal Election Commission records show. The expenditures are the largest from the Sanders campaign to any entity this election cycle.
The senator’s wife, Jane O’Meara Sanders, and stepson, David Driscoll, co-established the Sanders Institute in 2017 to act as a think tank to promote progressive voices, The Washington Post wrote at its launch…
Just two years after its launch, in 2019, the institute announced it would suspend operations as Sen. Sanders sought the Democratic nomination for president to avoid the “appearance of impropriety” and presumably to take away a line of attack from his rivals over its money.

With more than a touch of irony, the income of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders skyrocketed last year thanks to his book that criticizes capitalism. “It’s OK to Be Angry About Capitalism” earned Sanders $170,000 in royalties last year — roughly the same as his annual salary of $174,000 for representing Vermont.
The self-described democratic socialist has taken frequent jabs at the “millionaires and billionaires [who] own 79.% of all wealth” in the U.S. Yet royalties from multiple book deals have made Sanders part of this elite club he frequently targets.
Critics such as former CKE Restaurants CEO Andy Puzder, a pro-Trump conservative, have accused him of “hypocrisy.”
Is the criticism valid, though?
