New: @rokhanna.bsky.social is set to deliver one of the most intellectually rigorous framings of the Trump 2.0 era so far in JD Vance's home state tomorrow—the strongest signal yet Democrats think they need to frame him as Trump's heir ahead of 2028. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Instead of blanket & chaotic tariffs Howard Lutnick, where now you have exempted tech here is how you create electronic manufacturing hubs in the US: ✅ Invest in the workforce ✅ Provide public investment in manufacturing facilities ✅ Buy what we make in the US www.politico.com/newsletters/...

I was honored to be a co-chair of Bernie Sanders’ campaign. Because for me, his campaign has always been about a better way—America’s promise. And today, seeing the thousands gathered here—and the thousands more rising up across cities and towns— I’ve never been more hopeful.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialApr 11(source)

Trump's blanket 145% tariffs against China are not targeted at strategic sectors & there is no plan for substitution or friend-shoring of the critical parts that our manufacturers need. All vital inputs we get today from China shoot up in price with no roadmap to build here.

America needs bold investment, not indiscriminate tariffs. That's the argument I'm going to make at the City Club of Cleveland on Monday, April 14th in the heart of Vance's home state. Will you join me? www.cityclub.org

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialApr 10(source)

Republicans in Congress stopped holding town halls. Democratic leadership failed us. So I went to three red districts and held town halls for the people. Here’s what happened:

Taxing the very rich & cutting defense contractors to pay for Medicare for All, universal education and $10 day childcare. And having the biggest high paying jobs development initiative this country has seen in decades. A pro growth, fiscally sound, progressive vision!

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

We need a transformative vision so that ordinary Americans have a shot at success in the modern economy. That is what my economic patriotism is about. It is about finally getting economic security and independence for the majority of Americans.

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

Why would we want to go back to that --where people in too many communities do not have high paying jobs, young folks cant afford a house, many struggling to pay medical debt or afford childcare.

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

We cant simply go back to an America where we neglect inequality, or watch jobs being shipped offshore passively, or are resigned to wealth piling up in NY and SV while most Americans have no economic security.

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

We also need new high paying jobs and economic growth. The times demand a Marshall plan for America's economic renewal. We can spur high paying job creation in every town & city that will lead to growth & increased tax revenue reducing deficit.

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

We can do it in a financially sound way. The way we reduce deficits is by taxing the wealthy more, cutting the bloated defense budget, cutting fossil fuel subsidies, & having medicare negotiate against drug manufacturers to lower costs.

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

Thread: Dems must reject the economic illiteracy of Trump's blanket tariffs that will drive prices up, investment down, growth down--pushing us towards stagflation. That doesn't mean embracing status quo policies that led to Trump. Gov't has to improve life for many struggling.
