Your ally Orban conceded. In 2028, will you JD Vance follow suit if you lose?

Melania confirmed "Epstein was not alone." This means the survivors are not a "hoax" as ⁦Donald Trump claimed. Melania Trump must testify as to what she knows about other who men raped or abused the survivors. @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social www.ms.now/the-last-wor...

Rep. Khanna: Melania Trump should ‘absolutely’ testify after ‘incredibly important’ Epstein claim

Melania Trump made a rare public statement pushing back on what Donald Trump has called an Epstein “hoax.” Rep. Ro Khanna, a member of the House Oversight Committee, tells MS NOW’s Lawrence O’Donnell that there were four words the First Lady uttered that were “incredibly important”: “Epstein was not alone.”

Does any DNC member have actual knowledge who these two candidates were?

@rokhanna.bsky.social

Two 2028 candidates lobbied against this DNC resolution condemning AIPAC. It failed. Anyone who wants to lead this party must condemn and reject AIPAC money. They should also pledge not to have a Super PAC in Democratic primaries. I take no PAC money and have no Super PAC.

Most important, in an AI world, people's healthcare must not be dependent on their job. Every doctor should be in network. Medicare for All is needed for our time. It is a moral and economic imperative.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

Yet outcomes are worse. Life expectancy is lower, infant & maternal mortality higher, and chronic disease like diabetes and heart disease higher. Canada with single payer has far lower costs than the US, and even than Germany & Switzerland, and provides better, universal coverage.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialApr 9(source)

(Thread) The U.S. spends far more on healthcare than other rich countries. $15,000 per person (almost double), 18% of GDP (nearly twice as high), and healthcare inflation is 7% (roughly double others).

I was honored to join Rev. Al Sharpton at the National Action Network Convention to discuss the need for a new moral direction and politics of conviction. A. Philip Randolph, Bayard Rustin & the civil rights leaders are the original progressives with the Freedom Budget.

I will continue to work in a bipartisan manner with Nancy Mace and Thomas Massie to seek justice for survivors. Pam Bondi must still show up on April 14.

The American people, including many supporters of President Trump, do not want more war.

Hosting rallies for foreign leaders while your boss threatens to wipe out a nation of 91 million people is not America First.

JD Vance tries to call Trump at a Viktor Orbán rally and gets sent to voicemail

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

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

We need statesmanship to end this war. Here's a plan. 1) Ceasefire of Iran, Israel, and US bombing. 2) Ironclad guarantee from US & Israel not to attack Iran with China & Russia involved. 3) Open the Straight of Hormuz. 4) Enact sanctions relief in exchange for Iran giving up enriched uranium.
