Tens of thousands of music fans will descend on the California desert this weekend for the first of two iterations of the Coachella Music and Arts festival outside of Palm Springs, Calif.

If you’re financing your festival tickets, honestly, who cares? You gotta flex that carefully staged Instagram shot in front of the Ferris wheel somehow, right? 

Nothing screams financial stability like throwing a $49 down payment on a $600 ticket, then praying your direct deposit hits before your third installment bounces.

You wouldn’t want your Instagram followers knowing the ugly truth right? That your credit score barely qualifies you to rent a scooter, let alone pretend you’re a VIP at Coachella.

I think we’ve done it folks.

This. 

Overpriced, inedible concessions at Coachella have outraged critics who are calling out the music festival for being a “money trap” as hundreds of thousands descended on the Southern California desert.

One influencer claimed she spent over $100 for her meal consisting of tacos and lemonade on the first night of Coachella on Friday, which pop megastar Lady Gaga headlined on the festival’s main stage.

Ruth Viveros, who has chronicled her experience in Coachella Valley since Friday, shared a glimpse into the food at the famous music festival.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., took the Coachella stage on Saturday to deride President Donald Trump and "billionaires" to the crowd of luxury music festival-goers. 

Sanders, a self-described Democratic socialist, introduced the performance of Clairo, praising the 26-year-old artist, whose real name is Claire Cottrill, for her political activism. He was joined by Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., who the 83-year-old Sanders noted is the youngest member of Congress, and "in my view, one of the best members." 

While President Trump thrilled crowds in Miami — Senator Bernie Sanders found a more left-leaning audience at Coachella Saturday where the socialist firebrand took the stage to rant about his pet causes.

The independent Vermont senator was the surprise opening act for singer-songwriter Clairo, who Sanders thanked for “allowing him” to speak to the captive audience ahead of her much-anticipated performance — a speech he used to rail against the 1%, President Trump, and the war in Gaza.

Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are striking a chord.

The socialist firebrands have been criss-crossing the country, attracting some of the largest crowds of their careers. Their rallies are bigger than any other events currently being held by Democrats, and party figures of all stripes are taking notice.

The Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions on Monday accused e-commerce giant Amazon of manipulating data on worker injuries and ignoring safety concerns. "Amazon's warehouse workers have raised the alarm for years about unsafe working conditions and a corporate culture that prioritizes speed and profit over worker health and safety," the report states.

Amazon (AMZN+1.45% ) manipulates its workplace injury data and rejected recommendations to improve safety conditions for its workers, according to a Senate investigation into labor rules at the U.S.’s largest online retailer. The 160-report from the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pension (HELP) Committee is the result of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ investigation into the company’s “abysmal safety record” that he launched last year. The report says Amazon manipulates workplace injury data to make its warehouses appear safer than they actually are by cherry-picking statistics.

A sweeping congressional investigation into worker safety at Amazon found that the nation’s largest online retailer manipulated data on warehouse worker injuries and disregarded internal research on improving safety.

The report was released late Sunday by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pension, or HELP, Committee, chaired by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont).
