Troops are now not being paid because Republican leadership wants to prevent a vote on Rep. Thomas Massie and my bill to release the Epstein files. This is why people don't trust Washington.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 8(source)

Nearly 73% of Americans drink coffee. Journalists, police officers, and teachers drink the most coffee! That's a big coalition for Rep. Don Bacon and my bill to repeal the coffee tariff!

Insurance ≠ Healthcare

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

Stop private equity from buying single-family homes. Instead, give young Americans low-interest mortgages & downpayment help to buy them. Homes for young families, not Wall Street. That’s new economic patriotism.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

If a country can't stand up for survivors and children, we've lost our moral soul.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

Maxwell is a convicted sex trafficker. The idea that Trump & JD Vance would even consider providing cover for a pedophile is a slap in the face to survivors. They are not a hoax.

COLLINS: Pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell -- is that something you're open to doing? TRUMP: Who are we talking about? C: Ghislaine Maxwell T: I haven't heard the name is so long. I can say this -- I'd have to take a look at it ... I will speak to the DOJ C: She's convicted of child sex trafficking

Zachary Faria is attacking me b/c I led 24 California members to call for the release of American citizens on the flotilla from Israel. The media attacks & money are why politicians stay silent. I won't be cowered. Show Zachary you have my back. www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/belt...

Ro Khanna continues to undermine moral support for Israel

Khanna continued the Democratic trend of undermining moral support for Israel by threatening the country over its blockade of Gaza.

We secured the 218th signature. The press conference was scheduled. Epstein’s survivors were ready to speak. So what did Republican leadership do? They sent us home during a shutdown. Bring Congress back. Swear @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social in. It’s time to vote to release the Epstein Files.

This is an example of the new economic patriotism model. The company is making Sharpie's here not because of tariffs but significant investment in technology & their workforce boosting productivity. www.wsj.com/business/sha...

Sharpie Found a Way to Make Pens More Cheaply—By Manufacturing Them in the U.S.

Newell Brands invested close to $2 billion and thousands of hours in training to move most production of Sharpie pens to a 37-year-old factory in Tennessee.

Trump’s slashing international students, science grant cuts, hospital funding cuts, & university attacks gut the “eds & meds” model reviving Pittsburgh, Grand Rapids, Cleveland, & Raleigh. We need a 21st-century vision to bridge the economic divide, not wreck the comeback.

What do people think about giving working class Americans a $2000 tariff relief check for the unfair tax that has driven their grocery and housing prices up?

Taking small children, half clothed, away from their Moms & Dads & handcuffing American citizens. As a father, JD Vance have you no shame? Is this the Trump Vance America?⁦ apple.news/AsaoTtPOHR-2...

Trump Day 1: "I'll lower prices" Trump Reality: Jacked food costs Next Dem Day 1: Repeal ALL food tariffs Start with the repeal of the coffee tariff!

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 3(source)

@hoyer.house.gov your comments are why our base thinks Democratic leaders are out of touch. It's hard b/c I like you. But the old guard is why our numbers are in the tank! It's time to be bold & speak this blunt truth & for a new generation to lead a rebirth of our party.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 2(source)

It was @kenklippenstein.bsky.social , an independent journalist, that broke the dam on this first. This is why it is so important we support independent media.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialOct 2(source)

The press has been hammering me saying my appearance at ArabCon & call for a Palestinian state will "haunt my political future." I disagree. I believe our party's base has had it with our establishment. Who do you stand with? t.co/wcGOUqw8SJ
