Bernie Sanders told Business Insider he's reaching across the aisle to find common ground.He has no qualms about working with Elon Musk on any good ideas he has about spending.Sanders also cited areas of mutual interest with RFK Jr.

On Sunday afternoon, Sanders wrote on X: "Elon Musk is right. The Pentagon, with a budget of $886 billion, just failed its 7th audit in a row. It's lost track of billions. Last year, only 13 senators voted against the Military Industrial Complex and a defense budget full of waste and fraud. That must change."
