An attack on the Senator by a Clinton Super PAC had the unintended consequence of rallying support for Sanders. The Sanders campaign sent out a couple fundraising emails, and in less than 48 hours, Bernie had made a million bucks — at the record-breaking rate of nearly 180 contributions per minute.Proof that Sanders is still taking his day job seriously : This week, he introduced a bill called the Justice Is Not for Sale Act, which would move to ban government contracts with private prisons. It's just the sort of progressive policy-making — advocating for one of the most underserved communities (prison inmates) — that made him so beloved to begin with.Senator Sanders does not like it when you try to squeeze in an unscheduled interview. When a FOX reporter ran up to him in the hall of the Senate and started asking questions, Sanders said flatly that he “doesn’t do ambush interviews” and then proceeded to stonewall the persistent reporter, walking along in silence for question after question after question.
