Khanna: And what's gnawing at trump is that Barack Obama was far more effective… it turns out being statesmanlike and being smart and strategic is better than bluster for America's national interest. And now the president has made a mess of things…

Phillip: What does it tell you about what the strategy is here? Khanna: There is no strategy. What is the president achieved? He's driven gas prices up. He's driven food prices up. The enriched uranium is still in Iran….

Khanna: You have the signing off of the integration of our military with Israel. You have the American people who have been upset at our unconditional aid to Israel, who are upset that we supported Israel in what they did in Gaza. By the way, this is. Republicans and Democrats, both who have that view. And now you have the president of the United States saying this to the Saudis. It's just out of touch with what would bring peace in the Middle East or the American people.

Khanna: The Republicans have the White House, the Republicans have the House, the Republicans have the Senate, the Republicans have the Supreme Court make the case. And yet they're complaining that the elections are rigged.

Amazon is targeting @Teamsters who are organizing to ensure that big corporations employ their drivers & workers instead of contracting with third-party companies that allow them to escape liability & suppress union organizing. I stand with the Teamsters.

The village of Umm al-Khair is surrounded on all sides by settlements. Last year, Awdah Hathaleen was shot dead in broad daylight by extremist settler Yinon Levy. Biden had sanctioned him. Trump lifted the sanctions. We need to sanction violent settlers & make them face justice.

The Epstein files broke through because it is about integrity and justice for the survivors. We need a moral renewal in our nation. The survivors showed courage at a time of rot in government and with the Epstein class. @RepThomasMassie

Last night, @RepRoKhanna and I joined @brikeilarcnn on CNN’s The Source. In part one of our interview, we discussed the unconstitutional and unpopular war with Iran. American servicemen and women are dying, and gas and fertilizer prices are soaring. It’s time to end this war.

I believe in a new politics based on principle, where we can cross the aisle and stand up against elite impunity. Thomas and I are fighting to renew American values. @RepThomasMassie

“I have PTSD when I think of those letters,” said the executive. Big Oil lobbyists are afraid of a Democratic house because they remember the historic hearings I held with the Big Oil CEOs that echoed the Big Tobacco hearings. End fossil fuel subsidies.

🚨🇺🇸Massie and Khanna file a follow-up to their Epstein law, letting states and survivors SUE the Attorney General over 3 million withheld files. -The Epstein Files Transparency Act II would give state attorneys general and survivors standing to sue the U.S. Attorney General to force compliance with the original law Trump signed -Massie's charge: the DOJ "continues to unlawfully withhold over 3 million Epstein files that should be released to the public" and is "unlawfully maintaining heavy redactions on the files it is releasing" -Khanna says the department "violated our law, delayed the release of millions of files, botched the redactions, and denied the survivors justice" -The specific trigger: New Mexico's attorney general is ready to prosecute crimes at Zorro Ranch but cannot get DOJ cooperation, so the bill routes documents straight to any state AG willing to bring charges -The DOJ's July 2 filing pushed back, with Acting AG Todd Blanche arguing further release would harm victims and the government, offering instead to share materials "in camera," meaning behind closed doors with a judge The workaround is the whole design. Massie believes the DOJ has no interest in prosecuting the men the records expose, so the fix is to hand the files to prosecutors who do. Khanna's answer for why this issue refuses to die is worth sitting with, that people are watching rich and powerful men accused of trafficking girls walk away clean and drawing conclusions about the country.

The problem isn't the single mom getting $6 a day in food stamps. The problem is Jeff Bezos, worth $269 billion, more than doubled his wealth since 2020 while paying wages so low the number of Amazon workers on food stamps & Medicaid nearly tripled. Bezos is the welfare queen.

Trump promised manufacturing jobs. He has no economic development initiative or industrial policy. He failed. ✅ Lost over 75k manufacturing jobs ✅ Trade deficit still over $1 trillion ✅ Manufacturing employment is down by 200-300k at 7.9% and wages are flat.

Yes, it is apartheid. This is about the facts on the ground. Anyone who doesn't understand this reality should go to Palestine in the occupied West Bank & watch the videos we are putting out this week.

Instead of calling for the arrest of violent settlers & IDF soldier who detained Americans, former Congresswoman Manning criticizes me for taking a Palestinian led trip to the West Bank. I want to respectfully address this criticism head on because we desperately need more American politicians to take trips like the ones I did. I had been to Israel three times before my trip to Palestine. I had met with PM Bennett and PM Netanyahu. I have met with the families of Oct 7 terrorist attacks, including Jon and Rachel Polin who lost their beloved son Hersh. Can an American politician not take one Palestinian led trip to the occupied territories to learn the facts on the ground? Must every trip be curated through the Israel government or pro Israel advocacy groups? Will any trip that is through the lens of Palestinian eyes be dismissed as a stunt? What is most surprising to me is Congresswoman Manning dismisses my experience of being seen first as Brown and second as an American in the West Bank. I have never felt personally such an acute sting of race in America. When traveling in Palestine with a small group of others who were White, I was singled out and asked my faith. I was subject to longer interrogations at checkpoints. I was laughed at and mocked by violent settlers. And I saw firsthand the IDF taking the side of violent settlers much like the police forces sided with segregationists in the Jim Crow South. I am not nearly as eloquent as Ta-Nehisi Coates. But any person of color will feel how he or I did if they visit the occupied territories for even 24 hours. What is happening in Palestine is a betrayal of Judaism or the ideals of Israel. I wish Congresswoman Manning and others who love Israel would open their eyes and help work to redeem the soul of the nation they love by ending the oppression.

Thank you to all those who reached out asking about my safety. I am home. But I cannot get the stories of the indignities Palestinian face out or my head. I am still processing it and wanted to share some of what I saw.
