I just wrapped up a hit on Piers Morgan's show and want to give a shoutout to @rokhanna.bsky.social, who was on as well. We need more Democrats willing to step into hostile territory and engage with new audiences. Glad to see him join the show!

Rep. @rokhanna.bsky.social responds to Elon Musk’s not-so-polite response after he asked the unelected billionaire to come before Congress to explain his and DOGE's government actions.

I grew up in Philly. On my street were electricians, HVAC technicians, nurses, teachers, and business executives. We shared a lot in common & one huge thing: rooting for the Eagles. Good luck to my Philly friends and family this weekend.

My hot take is that Saquon Barkley will have a statue next to Rocky at the Philadelphia Art Museum after tomorrow.

Elon Musk called me a dick, now JD Vance is calling me disgusting. I won’t apologize for standing up to power and defending the constitution.

This is the golden age JD Vance? We will never lead the 21st century in tech & bioscience by kneecapping American R&D. Even Condi Rice has said we need to be doubling, not cutting NSF.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialFeb 5(source)

We are in this moment because for decades Republicans have hammered that "government is bad." Democrats must have the courage to make the case that actually "government is good." All modern American politics is defined by the polarity of FDR or Reagan.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialFeb 5(source)

I would have voted yes. They called a procedural vote without notice & I like 8 others didn’t make it there on time. Musk’s attacks on our institutions are unconstitutional. He should be subpoenaed & answer to our committee. They should call the vote again with notice.
