Description

Congressman Ro Khanna from California joins Mark Bland and Jason Kull and  dives into the latest political firestorms. We’ll unpack the Trump administration’s bold moves, including a 50% tariff threat on Brazil to halt Jair Bolsonaro’s trial, alongside similar pressures on 21 other nations. Khanna, a key figure on critical subcommittees, offers insider insights on global issues like the Iran-Israel conflict and domestic economic policies. We’ll also dissect Trump’s 50% copper tariff, criticized for hiking costs without boosting US production, and its potential to disrupt markets. The hosts slam Trump’s Truth Social antics, comparing it to a failed Parler knockoff, and revisit his first term’s lackluster 2.5% GDP growth against predecessors’ stronger records. Plus, we tackle a shocking ICE video from Van Nuys, exposing the detention of an American citizen based on appearance, sparking debate on stereotypes and accountability. Tune in for a no-holds-barred discussion on politics, policy, and community action!
