My discussion with @kaitlancollins.bsky.social about the tense situation between India and Pakistan and the way forward.
Reposted byRo Khanna
EXCLUSIVE: In a mic-drop moment, Ro Khanna took the stage at Yale—where he and JD Vance both graduated—and told the crowd that Vance’s politics are so disgraceful, they cheapen the degree. It was the loudest applause of the night. JD Vance is a disgrace and a joke.
My full speech that I gave at our alma mater Yale Law School calling him out:

I believe in an America where it’s not about who cuts deals or curries favor—but about who works hard. I want to fight for them. To make sure they get a fair shot.
So yes, I understand those who feel dismissed, underestimated, overlooked. I know what it’s like to fight to be heard. To outwork everyone just to get a chance.
That faith was in my blood. My grandfather spent four years in jail during Gandhi’s independence movement—choosing principle over personal comfort. He believed in human rights even when it meant prison.
But I had faith. That if I stayed true to my convictions, if I kept showing up, kept doing the work—eventually, the doors would crack open.
When I moved to Silicon Valley—the wealthiest place on Earth—I had $100,000 in student debt. No connections. No famous name. No political backing. In fact, the establishment fiercely opposed me.
And my father, an engineer at a manufacturing company, would ask over dinner: “What happened to the other 10%?”—because education was our ladder up.
I still remember my mother late at night, sitting at the kitchen table with stacks of notecards, helping me memorize English words—one by one. She knew being strong in the English language meant being strong in America.
Thread: My parents immigrated to the U.S. in the 1970s. I was born in 1976 in Philadelphia and raised in public schools. For our family, the path forward wasn’t money or connections—it was work and education.
American kids don’t need a billionaire who enjoys living in gold-plated penthouses lecturing them about how many toys they can have.
Trump’s reckless tariffs are kneecapping the economy.
There was 2.4% growth when Biden left. After the tariffs, it’s -.3%.
@chrislhayes.bsky.social and I discuss basic econ 101 that Howard Lutnick and leaders in this administration are getting wrong.
I was in rural Nebraska for a town hall last week. Why are Trump and JD Vance cutting $1 billion in funding to farmers that pays them to give food to churches, non-profit organizations, and kids?
The problem for Howard Lutnick is he's offering 19th century solutions of high tariffs and Polk like expansionism for a 21st century economy. @stevebenen.com explains how backwards looking the vision is.

If Republicans won't listen to voters in town halls, we will. That's why I'm hosting a "Benefits Over Billionaires" town hall in Allentown -- Join me!

It turns out that when you launch a trade war with blanket tariffs, layoff federal workers en masse, cancel federal contracts, & reduce skilled immigration, you will have negative GDP growth. Trump turned 2.4% growth to -.3%. Econ 101.
A Silicon Valley constituent tells me @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social’s 2% wealth tax is nothing compared to Donald Trump’s 20% destruction of his portfolio.
Amazon CEO $212 million
4 Amazon VP $30 million each
Median Amazon worker $37,000
Make it make sense.
