Is Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) the next Democrat nominee for president? He and Glenn debate due process, border policy, deportation, and Trump. But they agree on the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, nuclear energy, cuts to the defense budget, and revitalizing American manufacturing. Rep. Khanna contends that the “administrative state has played a constructive role” and explains why he is proud of the “Inflation Reduction Act” before questioning the impact of Elon Musk's efforts with the DOGE and laying out his plan to tackle U.S. debt, including taxing the billionaires in his own district, which includes Silicon Valley. Glenn is “pushing for Congress to take their power back,” and Ro Khanna hopes artificial intelligence will help “reindustrialize the country” to “help us lead against China.” While not reaching a consensus on topics like universal basic income,  shutting down USAID, or progressive economic reform, they both agree that “we need more conversations in this country.”      GLENN'S SPONSORS         Relief Factor               Relief Factor can help you live pain-free!

In this high-energy episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Alpha Warrior unpack a whirlwind of political and global developments. They dive into RFK Jr.'s fiery testimony exposing corruption at NIH and the pharmaceutical industry, questioning the value of cancer research while praising natural health approaches and detoxification practices. The big shocker? Democrat Ro Khanna introduces a bill to codify Trump's executive order on drug pricing, putting Republicans on the spot to back a wildly popular, America First policy. The duo rips into congressional laziness, Big Pharma lobbying, and Speaker Mike Johnson's latest vote cancellation as more proof that D.C. is built to stall real reform. The show also highlights Trump's historic visit to Qatar, where he received a royal welcome, secured billion-dollar aerospace deals, and hinted at deeper Middle East peace efforts. The hosts draw parallels between Trump's Riyadh speech and JFK's historic calls for diplomacy, speculating about both the symbolism and potential threats Trump faces. Packed with RFK smackdowns, geopolitical strategy, and sharp cultural commentary, from solar grid sabotage to vaccine whistleblowers, this episode blends substance and swagger in classic Badlands style.

Chuck Todd opens with a critical analysis of President Trump's approach to governance, suggesting that while his Middle East trip may yield positive results, his administration is missing crucial opportunities for bipartisan cooperation. He argues that Trump's executive order on prescription drugs lacks substance without legislative backing and that the president should "get caught trying" bipartisanship on issues where common ground exists. He also explores Putin's refusal of peace talks as a potential humiliation for Trump, and examines what recent political developments like the Omaha mayoral race might signal about Democratic prospects in upcoming elections.Then, he's joined by Congressman Ro Khanna, who delivers a candid assessment of the Democratic party's leadership crisis and brand damage. Khanna argues that Chuck Schumer has squandered his leadership position and addresses concerns about deportations in rural communities. The conversation delves into the economic realities facing the Midwest, and calls for Democrats to work more closely with business leaders. Khanna argues that deplatforming Trump after January 6th was "a huge mistake" and discusses the rightward shift among tech leaders. They conclude with Khanna's perspectives on America's global retreat, the timeline for presidential campaigns, and Gen Z's trust issues with politics. The episode wraps with "Ask Chuck," where Todd addresses questions about media coverage of Trump, potential Republican party fractures, and Chuck gives his thoughts on Pete Rose's posthumous Hall of Fame eligibility.Timeline:00:00 Introduction01:45 Trump's middle east trip may net some positive results02:30 Trump won't work with Democrats on issues they agree on04:15 Bipartisanship has become toxic06:30 Trump's executive order on prescription drugs is meaningless without legislation07:45 Congress has been useless08:30 Trump should “get caught trying” bipartisanship10:00 There are multiple issues where Trump could make bipartisan deals12:15 Trump made some great points in his middle east speech13:45 Trump has been pragmatic with his middle east policy 16:30 Trump can't pick and choose who to be pragmatic with18:00 The ball is in Trump's court after Putin turned down peace talks19:15 Putin is humiliating Trump… will he sit back and take it?19:50 Does the Omaha mayoral race show a blue wave building? 21:00 Pete Buttigieg admits Joe Biden is political baggage in Iowa town hall23:30 Chuck Schumer punting on the Biden question was cowardly25:30 Donald Trump is unpopular and the Democratic brand is still worse26:15 Ro Khanna joins the Chuck Toddcast! 27:45 Who is the leader of the Democratic party? 28:45 Chuck Schumer has squandered his leadership position 31:30 Rural communities are highly concerned about deportations 32:15 Is Hakeem Jeffries stuck in Nancy Pelosi's shadow? 34:00 How damaged is the Democratic brand and how to fix it? 37:15 Do midwestern voters want to work multigenerational factory jobs? 40:30 NAFTA benefitted the south and hurt the midwest 43:15 Republicans have become the big government party 45:45 Democrats need to work with business leaders 46:45 What caused the rightward shift of the tech leaders? 48:30 Deplatforming Trump was a huge mistake 50:30 Should Kamala Harris be the next governor of California? 53:30 What characteristics will voters be looking for in 2028 55:15 Will Democratic voters want a "celebrity" president? 58:25 What's the lesson learned from Biden's communications failure? 1:00:15 How do Democrats win over independent voters? 1:03:00 One issue he'd work with Trump on? 1:03:45 Will he debate JD Vance? 1:05:45 America's retreat is making the world more dangerous 1:07:15 Rubio needs to step up and assert America globally 1:10:00 It will take a generation to repair America's reputation 1:10:45 When is it appropriate to begin a run for president? 1:12:15 Kamala Harris and her team were too cautious in 24 1:13:45 Gen Z has trust issues with politics1:15:45 Chuck's thoughts on interview with Ro Khanna1:16:15 Ask Chuck1:16:55 Why are reporters not more combative with Trump?1:19:05 If the Republican party fractures, who would be in the traditional wing?1:21:45 Pete Rose finally eligible for Hall of Fame posthumously(Timestamps vary based on advertisements)

In this refreshingly candid episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold blends humor with hard-hitting analysis as he covers a range of stories from the absurd to the geopolitically significant. Leading the charge is Trump's announcement of a $1.2 trillion economic agreement with Qatar, along with historic arms and aircraft deals, made even more bizarre by the backdrop of Qatar gifting Trump a replacement Air Force One. Domestically, Jon dives into Trump's executive order to cut drug prices and the surprising twist that a Democrat, Rep. Ro Khanna, is introducing legislation to codify it, while Republicans drag their feet. He slams Congress for being run by lobbyist-compromised staffers, not elected officials, and calls the legislative process little more than a PR stunt. Other highlights include a judge upholding Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport violent gang members, James O'Keefe's bizarre Epstein kitchen footage, and Rubio's planned restructuring of the National Security Council to better match Trump's top-down style. Jon also revisits the reinstatement of Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson, celebrates Trump's camel-flanked parade, and skewers the performative politics dominating D.C. Light on guests but loaded with insight, it's a classic solo Herold hour, snarky, sharp, and unmistakably Badlands.

Rejected by voters last November, the Democratic Party is perhaps afforded new life given President Trump's decline in popularity and economic uncertainty ahead. What is the party's message?  Rep. Ro Khanna, a prominent progressive voice whose California district includes parts of Silicon Valley, joins Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and H.R. McMaster to discuss tariffs and the use of executive power, “blue state” mismanagement, the feasibility of a “Marshall Plan” for economically downtrodden parts of America, plus the chances of Democrats parting ways with their “old guard.” After that: the three fellows weigh in on the Trump presidency at the 100-day mark, the future of Catholicism after the death of Pope Francis, tax exemption for universities, their go-to takeout food (pizza yes; haggis, no), plus two April landmarks—the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Lexington and the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon.

In February, Congressman Ro Khanna penned a New York Times op-ed noting that to persuade Americans that transformative government is capable of improving their lives, we must reverse what many have experienced as decades of stagnation and decline. "With the establishment of both parties defeated, we are, as you may have heard, at a fork in the road." Khanna wrote, "Either the country will continue to succumb to a burn-it-all-down political nihilism and disillusionment, or Democrats can use this moment of crisis to reframe the terms of the debate."rnrnBut what are the terms of that debate? And what are the initiatives and solutions that will heal our divides during uncertain times?rnrnRo Khanna is a United States Congressman from California's 17th District in the heart of Silicon Valley. He has a vision to transform America into a modern manufacturing and technology superpower, and he partners it with a commitment to passing Medicare for All, a $17-dollar minimum wage, and free public college and vocational school. Congressman Khanna is Deputy Whip of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and served as co-chair of Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign.

If you're not feeling better after President Donald Trump paused the largest of his previously planned tariffs on 75 countries on Wednesday, you're not alone. The stock market is just as confused as you are. Wednesday's historic gains were essentially wiped out by huge losses on Thursday. And nobody knows what Trump is going to do next on tariffs, if they'll go into effect, when they'll go into effect, or how high they'll be. And with millions of Americans scared about rising prices and losing their jobs, the House GOP adopted a budget that could result in massive cuts to the social safety net, including Medicaid. California Democratic Representative Ro Khanna joins the show to discuss the tariff debate and the House GOP's budget.And in headlines: The State Department continues to revoke student visas over students' political beliefs, egg prices reach (another) record high, the Social Security Administration rolls back plans to restrict phone services, and the CEO of UFC…gets credit for a prisoner exchange with Russia?Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

In an emotional interview, host John Sherman interviews Poornima Rao and Balaji Ramamurthy, the parents of Suchir Balaji. (FULL INTERVIEW STARTS AT 00:18:38)Suchir Balaji was a 26-year-old artificial intelligence researcher who worked at OpenAI. He was involved in developing models like GPT-4 and WebGPT. In October 2024, he publicly accused OpenAI of violating U.S. copyright laws by using proprietary data to train AI models, arguing that such practices harmed original content creators. His essay, "When does generative AI qualify for fair use?", gained attention and was cited in ongoing lawsuits against OpenAI. Suchir left OpenAI in August 2024, expressing concerns about the company's ethics and the potential harm of AI to humanity. He planned to start a nonprofit focused on machine learning and neuroscience. On October 23, 2024 he was featured in the New York Times speaking out against OpenAI.On November 26, 2024, he was found dead in his San Francisco apartment from a gunshot wound. The initial autopsy ruled it a suicide, noting the presence of alcohol, amphetamines, and GHB in his system. However, his parents contested this finding, commissioning a second autopsy that suggested a second gunshot wound was missed in the initial examination. They also pointed to other injuries and questioned the presence of GHB, suggesting foul play. Despite these claims, authorities reaffirmed the suicide ruling. The case has attracted public attention, with figures like Elon Musk and Congressman Ro Khanna calling for further investigation.Suchir's parents continue to push for justice and truth.Suchir's Website:https://suchir.net/fair_use.htmlFOR HUMANITY MONTHLY DONATION SUBSCRIPTION LINKS:$1 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/7sI3cje3x2Zk9SodQT$10 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/5kAbIP9Nh0Rc4y46oo$25 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/3cs9AHf7B9nIggM4gh$100 MONTH https://buy.stripe.com/aEU007bVp7fAfcI5kmLethal Intelligence AI - Home https://lethalintelligence.aiBUY LOUIS BERMAN'S NEW BOOK ON AMAZON!!!https://a.co/d/8WSNNuoGet Involved!EMAIL JOHN: forhumanitypodcast@gmail.comSUPPORT PAUSE AI: https://pauseai.info/SUPPORT STOP AI: https://www.stopai.info/SUBSCRIBE TO LIRON SHAPIRA'S DOOM DEBATES on YOUTUBE! / @doomdebates

Ralph welcomes Robert Weissman, co-president of Public Citizen, whose group has filed eight lawsuits that have significantly slowed the Trump/Musk cabal's attempt to dismantle the government. Then, our resident Constitutional scholar Bruce Fein reports on Public Interest Law Day at Harvard Law School and how important it is for law schools in general to step up to meet this constitutional crisis. Plus, Ralph answers listener questions!Robert Weissman is a staunch public interest advocate and activist, as well as an expert on a wide variety of issues ranging from corporate accountability and government transparency, to trade and globalization, to economic and regulatory policy. As the President of Public Citizen, he has spearheaded the effort to loosen the chokehold corporations and the wealthy have over our democracy.The efforts in the courts are really vital to stem the illegal, unconstitutional actions of the administration, but also to show that there's a way to fight back. In these early days and months of the administration, there's been a sense that Trump is inevitable and unstoppable. And the actions in the courts, I think, have been really critical to illustrating that that's not true.Robert WeissmanIt's open season for the polluters. And of course, they're also promoting in a variety of ways a rush towards climate catastrophe by undoing the positive measures that have come recently from the Biden administration to deal with the climate crisis.Robert WeissmanIf you pull back all the enforcement rules, and you say we're not going to enforce the rules that are left over, corporations get the message. And they're going to bemore reckless, and it's a near certainty that we're going to have many more serious industrial disasters as a direct result of what they're doing at EPA and other agencies.Robert WeissmanBruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.If we don't inform the public (with the law students as well as others in the lead), we're not going to have rule of law and Harvard Law School will become an irrelevancy. It will be a museum piece.Bruce FeinI think the country and the law students are going to pay a price. They're being very narrow and myopic with regard to their immediate preoccupation with their trade school, where they're going to work the next day, and very little given to the fact that if we don't have a country anymore, they aren't going to have a legal career.Bruce FeinIt's a more cowardly, timid type of law school whose explanations are still ready to be discovered. It's a real puzzle…because they have tenure, they have status, they have wealth, and they have the ability to defend themselves because they're skilled lawyers.Ralph NaderNews 4/2/251. Our top stories this week are on the topic of corporate crime. First, the American Prospect reports that the Trump administration is seeking to reverse a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau case against Townstone, a mortgage brokerage firm that blatantly discouraged potential Black borrowers. According to the Prospect, Townstone's owners Barry Sturner and David Hochberg vigorously promoted their firm though “personal-finance call-in infomercials,” on Chicago's WGN radio station. During these infomercials, which generated 90 percent of Townstone's business, Sturner and Hochberg “characterized the South Side of Chicago as a ‘war zone,' downtown Chicago as a ‘jungle' that turned on Friday and Saturday into ‘hoodlum weekend,'” and so on. As the Prospect notes, if Sturner and Hochberg were simply airing these views that would be perfectly legal, however unsavory. Instead, this program is “an informercial, which generates 90 percent of the brokerage's leads, which the brokerage pays WGN to air, presumably punctuated at regular intervals by some phrase along the lines of ‘an equal housing lender.'” Therefore, this rhetoric was determined to have violated the Fair Housing Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Community Reinvestment Act. The remarkable thing about this case is that it was brought by the Trump administration's CFPB between 2017 and 2020. Townstone eventually settled the case for a little over $100,000. Yet, just last week, the Trump administration 2.0 returned the money to Townstone posting “a long press release about how ‘abusive' and ‘unjust' the whole case had been.” This episode highlights just how much more extreme the new Trump administration is, even compared to the old one.2. Another outrageous case of corporate criminal leniency comes to us from Rick Claypool, a corporate crime expert at Public Citizen. For background, CNBC reports that Trump has “pardoned three co-founders of the BitMEX global cryptocurrency exchange, as well as…a former high-ranking employee.” As this piece explains, the co-founders received criminal sentences of probation…and were ordered to pay civil fines totaling $30 million,” after “Prosecutors accused the men of effectively operating BitMEX as a ‘money laundering platform' …[and] ‘a sham.'” But Trump went beyond pardoning the corporate criminals involved. As Claypool noted, “the crypto corporation pled guilty and was sentenced in January to two years' probation,” leading Claypool to wonder whether Trump would pardon the corporation itself. His question was answered on March 29th when Law360 reported that yes, Trump pardoned the business entity. This is the logical endpoint of regarding corporations as people. Not only will individual crooks be let off the hook, the whole crooked enterprise will come out unscathed.3. New evidence confirms the redistribution of wealth from working people to the capitalist class. A February 2025 RAND Corporation study titled “Measuring the Income Gap from 1975 to 2023” finds that, “the bottom 90 percent of workers would have earned $3.9 trillion more with..more even growth rates [since 1975],” resulting in a “cumulative amount of $79 trillion.” This study extends prior estimates by factoring in “inflation, growth in inequality, and a longer time frame.” And even more recently, an April 2025 article in the Journal of Political Economy, titled “How the Wealth Was Won: Factor Shares as Market Fundamentals,” finds that “40% of [the increase in real per capita value of corporate equity, which grew at an annual rate of 7.2% between 1989 and 2017]…was attributable to a reallocation of rewards to shareholders in a decelerating economy, primarily at the expense of labor compensation.” This study estimates “Economic growth accounted for just 25% of the increase,” and compares this period to the preceding era, “1952–88, [which] experienced only one-third as much growth in market equity, but economic growth accounted for more than 100% of it.” Taken together, these studies starkly illustrate an American economic machine built to make the rich even richer and the poor ever poorer.4. On the other end of the criminal penalty spectrum, the Department of Justice announced on Tuesday that they will seek the death penalty for alleged UnitedHealthcare assassin Luigi Mangione, the BBC reports. The first Trump administration saw the resumption of the federal death penalty after a 16-year hiatus; the Biden administration then issued a new moratorium and commuted the sentences of most federal death row prisoners. Since returning to power, Trump has aggressively pursued federal executions once again.5. In more positive legal news, NBC reports French far-right leader Marine Le Pen was found guilty Monday of embezzling over €3 million of European Union funds. The National Rally party leader was sentenced to four years in prison (with two on house arrest and two suspended), a €100,000 fine, and a ban on holding political office for five years – making her ineligible for the 2027 French presidential election, which polls showed her leading. Her party will, for the time being, be led by her protégé 29-year-old Jordan Bardella. It is unclear if he will enjoy the same popularity Ms. Le Pen held. She announced that she plans to appeal the verdict, but will remain ineligible for public office unless and until she wins that case.6. In more international news, British police last week executed a shocking raid on a congregation of the Quakers. The Guardian reports, “More than 20 uniformed police, some equipped with Tasers, forced their way into the Westminster meeting house…[and] seized attenders' phones and laptops.” In a statement, Paul Parker, the recording clerk for Quakers in Britain, said “No one has been arrested in a Quaker meeting house in living memory… This aggressive violation of our place of worship and the forceful removal of young people holding a protest group meeting clearly shows what happens when a society criminalises protest.” The stated charge is the absurd “conspiracy to cause a public nuisance.” A report on the incident in Church Times adds a statement from Oliver Robertson, head of witness and worship for Quakers in Britain, who said “This raid is not an isolated incident. It reflects a growing trend of excessive policing under new laws brought in by the previous government, which are now being enforced by the current administration.” Even former Tory minister Jacob Rees-Mogg, criticized the raid, stating “There has long been a tradition in this country…that religious spaces should not be invaded by the forces of law and order unless absolutely necessary.”7. Of course, the outrageous use of lawfare on Israel's behalf continues in the halls of Congress as well. In a letter, Congressmen Jim Jordan, Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, and Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Brian Mast – famous for his role as an American volunteer for the IDF – have announced their intention to investigate activist groups critical of the Israeli government – within Israel. According to the Jerusalem Post, these NGOs are being investigated to, “ascertain whether funding they allegedly received from the Biden administration was utilized for the judicial reform protests in 2023.” These groups include the Movement for Quality Government in Israel and Blue and White Future, among others.8. The government's use of brute force to muzzle criticism of Israel continues to rock academia. At Harvard, the Crimson reports 82 of Harvard Law School's 118 active professors have signed a letter which “accused the federal government of exacting retribution on lawyers and law firms for representing clients and causes opposed by President Donald Trump…described Trump's threats as a danger to the rule of law…[and] condemned the government for intimidating individuals based on their past public statements and threatening international students with deportation over ‘lawful speech and political activism.'” The letter reads, in part, “we share a conviction that our Constitution, including its First Amendment, was designed to make dissent and debate possible without fear of government punishment. Neither a law school nor a society can properly function amidst such fear.” This letter stands in stark contrast to the recent statement by Harvard President Alan Garber, in which he pledged to “engage” with the federal government's demands in order to protect the university's $9 billion in federal funding.9. Last week, we reported on the “lynching” of Hamdan Ballal, the Palestinian co-director of the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land – and how the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences dithered before ultimately releasing a milquetoast statement decrying violence against “artists for their work or their viewpoints,” with no mention of Palestine or even Ballal's name. This caused so much uproar among Academy members that nearly 900 of them signed a letter “denouncing the Academy's silence,” per Variety. The letter and full list of signatories can be found here. Shamed, the Academy leadership was forced to issue a follow-up statement expressing their “regret that we failed to directly acknowledge Mr. Ballal and the film by name.” This statement continues “We sincerely apologize to Mr. Ballal…We abhor the suppression of free speech under any circumstances.”10. Finally, speaking of shame, the Hill reports that the shame of Congressional Republicans is giving Democrats a golden opportunity. According to this piece, “House Democrats are ramping up their aggressive strategy of conducting town halls in Republican-held districts, vying to exploit the GOP's advised moratorium on the events to make inroads with frustrated voters, pick up battleground seats, and flip control of the House in next year's midterms.” One Democrat, Bernie Sanders' 2020 campaign co-chair Ro Khanna, has held three town halls in Republican-held districts, whose main takeaway was “People are mad.” Republicans who have bucked the GOP leadership and held town halls anyway, such as Wyoming Rep. Harriet Hageman and Indiana congresswoman Victoria Spartz have found themselves looking down the barrel of constituents furious at the conduct of the administration in general and DOGE in particular. This, combined with the upset Democratic victories in recent special elections, has the GOP on a defensive backfoot for the first time in months. Could we be looking at the beginning of a Democratic tea party? Only time will tell.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta report on the GOP's recent budget blueprint that narrowly passed in the House. Jason and Ravi break down what this means for Trump's tax, border, and spending-cut agenda, and explore the potential roadblocks ahead with the Senate and the battle over Medicaid cuts. Kander and Gupta then turn to Trump's overhaul at the FBI, as Trump appoints Dan Bongino's as Deputy FBI Director under Kash Patel. They then dive into James Carville's provocative call for Democrats to step back and let Republicans self-destruct with their dysfunction. What would this "tactical pause" mean for the future of the party? Jason and Ravi are then joined by Congressman Ro Khanna to discuss all this and more on the podcast that helps you, the 54% of the country that votes for progress in every election, convince your conservative friends and family members to join our majority.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Ro Khanna about why Democrats have become the party of defending institutions and the status quo; how offshoring has hurt the working class; why Elon Musk's efforts to expose wasteful government spending is misguided; concerns over the constitutionality of pausing government payments without congressional approval; the importance of transparency and upholding the power of the purse; and whether radical measures are needed to fix government corruption and inefficiency; the importance of open debate and resisting cancel culture; agreements and disagreements on trade, tariffs, and industrial policy, including overlap with Trump's views; the discussion on the Department of Education's role and federal funding in public schools; and differing perspectives on school choice versus public education; the Democratic Party's focus on gender and race issues; why gender identity should be a personal choice and not a matter of government intervention; how to handle transgender athletes in sports; and much more.
